Mouse control and sensitivity


MafiaInferno

Recommended Posts

The mouse sensitivity and control is so poor. I've tried with all sensitivity settings and the camera movement seems very irrational. Movement is not smooth and there seems to be no balance between trying to fight a dragon (wildly flailing around trying to find it when it moves) to picking up a small item (having trouble actually pointing at an item and overshooting)

 

You can tell it was made for the sticks of console controllers because of the differing rates of movement and the camera 'snapping back' when you stop moving it. The control in morrowind was far better than this.

 

I have no idea how one would go about doing such a thing, I seriously hope some genius can come up with some improvements for this as i'm finding it extremely hard to find a middle ground for the current settings that will enable good control

Trying playing on LOW graphic settings and make sure AA is set to 0 and the other one too

Did you disable mouse acceleration (mouse smoothing) in the ini file and disable vertical sync (vsync) as outlined here?

 

It may help.

 

Also, for most people the ini file you need to edit is not the one in your Steam folder as indicated in that article.

 

Instead, you'll need to change the SkyrimPrefs.ini file located in C:\Users\YourWindowsUsername\Documents\My Games\Skyrim instead of the one in the Steam folder. Remember to make a backup.

SirBeret, why would i wait for so long for a game when i have a quadcore CPU and 2gb graphics to go and play on low graphics

 

xaliqen, i've just done both of those, i'll fire it up and see if there's an improvement

The movement still feels sluggish although there is an improvement in the uniformity of the movement
