This utility tries to add a little more user friendliness without reducing the nostalgia. There are modern Dune II recreations that offer these features and more, but this utility is designed for gamers who prefer to play the original DOS game in DOSBox, yet find it frustrating to use the original control scheme. It also allows for scrolling the map with both the mouse wheel and the WASD keys, as well as other minor convenience features. This allows you to give context sensitive orders with the mouse buttons (like in more modern RTSes) instead of using keyboard commands or mousing over to the command bar. It runs in the background while you're playing and maps the game's built-in keyboard commands to the right and middle mouse buttons and the mouse wheel. This Windows utility allows for better mouse control in Dune II when played in DOSBox under Windows. For Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty (1992) by Westwood Studios
