Go to the configuration file(s) location. Open Input.ini and add the following: [/script/engine.inputsettings] AxisConfig=(AxisKeyName="MouseX",AxisProperties=(Exponent=1.000000)) AxisConfig=(AxisKeyName="MouseY",AxisProperties=(Exponent=0.700000)) Try readjusting the Y axis multiplier if 0.7 doesn't feel right. Changing these values may break joystick input. Also affects flying with mouse controls (if enabled), swimming and free look, as it lowers sensitivity on the Y axis.

Issues unresolved

High frame rate issues

Jump height affected by frame rate

Spyro's jump height is subtly affected by frame rate (he can jump slightly higher at 30 FPS); however, all three games can still be completed 100% without lowering FPS. An example of this bug is how Spyro sometimes can't jump out of the water in Mystic Marsh.

Set frame rate cap to 30 FPS

The druids in Alpine Ridge won't use their magic

There is a bug with the druids in Alpine Ridge where you cannot progress if the frame rate is above 30 FPS.

Set frame rate cap to 30 FPS

Spyro slides around when standing still

If the frame rate goes above 100 FPS, Spyro may slide around the terrain with no input, resulting in very slippery controls.

Set frame rate cap to 100 FPS

Issues fixed

SteamVR launches on game start

Add launch parameter
Add -nohmd to Steam's launch parameters for the game or a shortcut.

Game audio plays through Oculus Rift regardless of settings

Disable the Rift Audio output device
