Low frame rate
Use SilentPatch[10] |

Very slow in-game mouse-movement
- Negative mouse acceleration is forced in-game and can't be disabled. It gets significantly worse the higher your mouse polling rate is high or DPI is low. It can cause very slow mouse-movement in-game, making it hard to accurately aim with your weapon.[15]
Use SilentPatch and set camera speed multiplier[16] |
---|
|
Use Scarface Fusion Fix[17] |
---|
|
Workaround: Lower the mouse's polling rate through hardware or software options to a lower value like 125hz[18] |
---|
|
Workaround: Set mouse DPI very high to a value like 12000 through hardware or software options[19] |
---|
|
Run the game at screen refresh rate
- The game defaults to a 60 Hz refresh rate. Enforcing a 60 FPS cap is still recommended.
Override refresh rate set by game[20] |

- ↑ 17.0 17.1 Verified by User:Mrtnptrs on 2023-01-20
- Makes movement of the mouse much easier, maybe too easy as with my mouse at 1000 Hz polling rate 1600 DPI it goes a bit too quickly for my feeling with no way to adjust it.
