Salem

Read through the forums and I haven't run into Win7 issues, but I am assuming this is the same issue plaguing Mac and Linux users.

I've ...

Tried it in Java 6
Java 7,
Installed Custom Salem
Tried Latikai's client mod (this includes enabling mac mode, laptop based screen pivots, etc.)
Used my touch pad
Clicked *harder*

and had the same result. Menus click fine, interaction with the world does nothing. Can't move, or interact with anything via mouse.

So at this point the game is fatally broken for me and I haven't even made it past character creation.

It's come up on Win7 before. I think it was on the old forums, though (paradoxplaza.com), and I don't recall any solutions on it. Of the two other Windows threads I've seen, one didn't report any hardware or software (so am assuming it was Windows), the other reported having an Intel GPU on Win7.

The only two suggestions I can make here are:

1. Ensure that you have up-to-date video drivers and that they are the ones provided by Intel when possible, and
2. Double check that you have the proper mouse/pointing device driver installed.

Check if your 'color depth/quality'(not sure what the correct term/naming is in english ver. of windows. just did fast translation from my lang to eng :<) is set to 32bit instead of 16bit.

I remember 2 people having that issue in the past. Somehow clicks were not registered if they had their color depth/quality set to 16bit.
