Right-clicking with Mac

Post by Truth0 »

To right-click with a Mac when using things generally for PC one would hold control+left/only click. My friend claims that this works fine everywhere else but not on Haven and Hearth. I find that a bit odd. Any ideas or suggestions?

(inb4 get a PC...)

go to system preferences and change the right mouse button to actually work as a right mouse button

I guess I didn't make myself clear, I am sorry. Most Macs only have one button on their mouse and therefore there is no option to enable a button that does not exist.

Macs have not had one button on their mouse since 1996.

I would disagree with that and have to also counter with "apparently my friend's mouse still only has one (and no, it's not from 1996)."

I'll ask him about it again, though.

I am the friend that Truth0 was talking about. I'm the one with a Mac, a 2007 Macbook Pro, and no I do not have a right click on the mouse. I tried using the buttons ctrl and a click of the mouse, the equivalent of a right click, and that did not do anything. I tried on both a person and the treasure chest in the first area and nothing.
