I am new with emulators, need help with controls

[vanquish421]

So, I got Project64 and immediately downloaded Turok 2, one of my fav games of all time. Now, my keyboard works fine for the controls, but my newb question is can I use my mouse to look around? If this isn't originally possible, is there anything I can download or manipulate to make this possible. I'm willing to buy a controller, but hell, I have an N64 with many games, if I can use a mouse rather than a controller it would really make life better. Thanks for your time in reading this and responding.

Sorry to post when somebody else already answered your question, but the following reply hasn't got anywhere NEAR the mileage it should.
My stock-standard, copy-paste reply:
There is such a thing as the 'search' function...

I stopped halfway through the fourth page. Read 'em all.

Still, this could be helpful as it picks out the mouse threads from the non-mouse threads.

EDIT: Fixed the links.

In brief, you have to use N-Rage Input Plugin v1.83 ,which supports the mouse.I configured Turok 2 with it it's great just like playing a real PC shooter.

Actually, there is a special plugin that someone made to work with FPSs. Since Googol's links don't work for me, I'll give one of my own. N-rage also works, but you have to do more manual configuration.

Actually, they don't work for me either. Looks like the fuel's run out on that car. EDIT: Just refueled.
The point is, you can use either of those plugins. I use Nrage for it, personally; that way, I don't have to change the plugin every five seconds and it works fine. Plus, truly configurable controller profiles!

Maybe I'm one of the few but I couldn't get the mouse to respond the way I needed it to for Turok. I got it pretty close but the mouse movement was still floaty. I just broke down and bought a controller and it works just fine that way.
