Experiencing rather frustrating mouse lag.
Posted: Fri May 13, 2011 2:26 am
Tried getting the vga qfg2 running today and I've been experiencing an awkward input lag with the mouse. Whenever I hover the cursor over any frame it can interact with (be it a menu label or game-world person / object) it begins to stutter and act in an unresponsive and choppy manner. In any other space it trails fine, but the behavior persists with any clickable frame / object. Soon as I move it out again, it starts functioning properly again.
I've tried running with all the various combinations of rendering filters for both DirectDraw5 and Direct3D9 to no avail. The only thing that seemed to somewhat alleviate the issue was running in full-screen mode, but the behavior of the mouse was awkward in the manner that it accelerated in a very unintuitive manner. Any mouse gestures based on physical mouse movement were either much slower than I'd expect or much faster and I had trouble controlling it. I tried spending some time in full-screen mode hoping I'd acclimate to the awkward acceleration, but I found it unplayable.
Is there any simple solution to this issue that evades me? Any help would be greatly appreciated for getting the cursor to behave in a windowed mode.
Running what I believe is the most recent version of the game (2.0) that I just downloaded today via AGDI's own page.
Running a fully up-to-date Windows 7, all essential driver updates (video card etc.) from within the last month.
Again, any help would be appreciated as I'd really like to explore this wonderful fan-made update to a timeless classic of a game, but these cursor issues are pushing me towards playing the classic version instead .
