Support for relative mouse movements

Post by badda »

UltraVNC should support relative mouse movements. A lot of games (almost all 3D games) are not playable with absolute mouse movements, only relative ones. I tested this with RealVNC - RealVNC supports relative mouse movements and there, the games are playable. However, RealVNC uses a proprietary protocol extension for this. UltraVNC could be easily extended using the General Input Interface extension (using gii pseudo-encoding). Support for gii messages would have the additional benefit that Joystick/Gamepad support is easily implementable.

Gii is already implemented but current not activated.

I will activate if for 1.3.0 and update the version in a few days

-Updated 1.3.0 has the option to activate Gii
Viewer need to [v]Gii
This was original made to support touch screens, never tested it with a joystick.
