Can only look up and down

[zcurve]

I wanted to register here specifically to relate my experience with this issue.

I had the "spinning mouselook" thing and finally figured out that it had to do with the wireless gamepad I had plugged in. I unplugged it and then got the problem where I could only look up and down.

I eventually got rid of the issue by deleting my profile in the game and starting a new one. I also restarted my PC for good measure but I don't know it that was really needed.

Maybe this will help someone.

worked like a charm thank you so much
