Mouse issue with Exclusive Fullscreen?
Hey guys,
I am having an issue with playing the game using the 'Exclusive Fullscreen' setting in Video settings.
When I have Exclusive fullscreen selected with 16:9 ratio, 1920x1080 resolution and 144hz which is the exact properties of my monitor, my mouse either completely dissapears in game or it gets stuck in the top left hand corner of the screen in like a small invisible rectangle.
Anyone ever encountered this issue?

Yes others have experienced it and if you maybe took the time to either search or read through the other posts you wouldn't have to spam the forums with the same question.

This problem seems to be Windows only. I suggest to look into having a Linux partition and dual-booting.

ignore this post,linux is a joke of a system.its not a windows problem its a valve problem,30 tick servers.
That's why the problem doesn't occcur on the Linux client, right? The Linux client works fine with ZERO issues. The main reason I switched to Linux was the fact that in Windows there was constantly an issue and lag because of some Windows process eating resources or using the hard drive for no reason. Please don't spread misinformation and stop being so ignorant.

Considering your comments I can see you have your eyes and ears closed regarding Linux. Don't be surprised when more and more people dump Windows to move over. BTW enjoy your cracked version of Windows.

the game doesnt support true 1080p.
What?? What does that even mean? I'm pretty sure the game can even render at 4k... As far as I know the game isn't upscaled? Source?

Try adding launch option: -autoconfig_level 1

Thanks but this is my first ever post on the forums haha. I agree with you being a Windows issue. I feel as if an update around November last year for Windows 10 changed something to do with my mouse cursor sensitivity etc. Would you recommend maybe reinstalling windows 7?
