My mouse problem - japanesewhisky - 04-11-2018

Hey

For those of you who still play this game, I need some help.

Basically I got a new ROG Strix and on it, whenever I launch Amnesia, my mouse starts spazzing out and for a few seconds I can control it but then it just appears on the opposite side on the screen and so on. Now I am aware that there is a trick where you can right click the .exe file and go to properties and after that go to compatibility, and check that DPI box. But that won't work for me either. I really don't know what's wrong. I think that on my PC it says ''Override high DPI scaling behavior, Scaling preformed by:Application, System or System(Enhanced)'', but on other people's PC'S it seems to say ''Disable display scaling on high dpi devices''

Please help and I am grateful for every answer you guys bother to leave Big Grin

Sincierly

The DPI scaling setting was changed in an update of Windows 10. I believe using the "Application" setting is appropriate. However, I can't guarantee this will fix your mouse issue, but worth a try. If it doesn't, feel free to try the other scaling modes as well.

None of them worked, but thank you for your suggestions Big Grin

It could be that some other software is interfering with the game. If you have other things running, try shutting them down. Especially look for things like "game boosters" or mouse related software, or even antivirus.

Fixed it at last, I reinstalled the game and I went to redist and clicked launcher there and it somehow fixed it, nevertheless I still appreciate you man Big Grin

I've been using Avast and it has worked well for me. Haven't had issues with the game at least.
