Issues fixed
Mouse aiming deadzone
- By default, the game has a mouse "deadzone" effect that ignores small mouse movements. This can make precision aiming with ranged weapons difficult to impossible. An option to disable this feature has been included with one of the patches.
| Under "Mouse & Keyboard Settings", set "Mouse Deadzone" to "off"[citation needed] |
|---|
Game fails to launch
The game fails to launch with mirrored screens, disable mirrored screens in display settings.
FPS issues on 8/16 CPU
- The game has FPS issues if you use more than 8 threads[5]
| Turn off logical threads (HT/SMT)[6] |
|---|
|
Open task manager and change affinity in the game process. Cores 0, 2, 4, 6 = Physical. Cores 1, 3, 5, 7 = Logical. Uncheck logical threads. For some Xeons it may differ (0, 1, 2, 8, 9, 10 and 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 11[7]).
