So basically, anytime the mouse goes to the edge of the screen, I lose control and get disoriented.

What's actually happening is that as soon as the mouse leaves the window (the 'allow programs to confine mouse' option didn't seem to work) the game interprets any mouse movement to mean 'spin wildly in the direction that the mouse went off of the screen.'

The 'funky things' with the mouse aren't just a lack of maneuverability that is just a part of the game and I could deal with that.

When you try running the game without that option, what errors are produced in the terminal? Unless you disable the 'Emulate virtual desktop' option, the game will never run in full screen anyway, it will always be in a Wine window. There is a fan-made hack that will expand the game's resolutions to wide screen format, but I don't know if it will work with Wine: It cannot do wide screen resolutions like the default resolution of your monitor. Also, you can use the keyboard functions to control your character's movement, which practically eliminates the mouse problem.Īs for the screen resolution, KotOR's maximum resolution is 1600x1200, 4:3 aspect ratio. It still won't get you a full 360 degree movement range, but it will be much better than the default. I worked around it a bit by increasing the mouse sensitivity in the game's settings. It apparently has something to do with a fault in Wine's implementation of DirectInput that has not been corrected (yet). If the mouse problem you are describing is a limited rotation range, then there is nothing you can do about it, there are several games that have problem with that.
