Mouse "Scroll Wheel" issue with 05/31/2005 SW Upda

  Previously I was able to use the scroll wheel normally to switch between my weapons. However after updating to the latest version I am having to scroll like crazy to get Lo Wang to change his current weapon (and sometimes even that doesn't work). Does anyone else have this issue?
  
  My mouse is a "Wheel Mouse Optical 1.1A USB", basically your generic Microsoft optical mouse, nothing special.

  I use a basic Logitech Dual Optic and it works great.

  Something definitely changed in the code though, in relation to the mouse. In this new version moving the mouse allows me to scroll through the menus, which isn't there in the older version. I have both verions installed right now and the old version works 100% fine when using the mouse wheel to switch between weapons, this new version however, not so good.
  
  Jono, if you get a chance, check this out and let me know if you find anything.
  
  * I'm using the exact same configuration settings for both versions.
  
  ** I should note that the same mouse setup in the latest release of Duke3D works fine.

  I'm looking into this.
  
  Update: Ok, dodgy mouse wheel movement problem should be fixed and will be updated in the next release.

  Thanks... and I didn't even notice that Duke3D was updated as well. I went ahead and installed it to double check, and it does appear that the same mouse wheel issue is present there too. There version just prior to that one was okay though.
  
  Thanks again for taking the time to check into this.

  for me the mouse wheel doesnt work at all in both SW and Duke3D. not in the latest, and not in older versions either. i think this is specific to the linux version tho, since you guys dont have it. or maybe my config is just messed up ;)

  Amazing as I have several mice here and the all work 100% in both JFDuke3d and JFSW and I have always had my Next/Previous weapons on the wheel.
  Try copying and pasting my Mouse controls into your Sw.cfg
