Recent mouse stuttering

[Radio Raheem]

Has anyone who's played this recently had the same issue?

I have the same problem with 2 other of my old favourite games - Shogo and Requiem.

all 3 were working perfectly now they all share the same stuttering mouse issue.

I've tried a second mouse and its all the same

It's the engine.

I’m probably to late but still happy to help. :)

Go to this link below. (The patch says it’s for Shogo: Mobile Armor Division but also works with Blood 2: The Chosen)

https://github.com/elishacloud/dxwrapper/issues/54

Scroll down until you find the file “dinput.zip”
Once it’s download, extract the file from dinput.zip and place it in your Blood 2 folder

Never too late! Thank you for the link! I'll always love these games and play a level every now and again.

Coincidently, the creator of that dinput, elishacloud has helped me on github with directx 8 on another old game to get it running in directx 9 via a different wrapper.

I appreciate you taking the time to post the link and instructions!

[Somesoup4455]

Happy to do it :)
Love older games like this as well. I Go back to this along with other classics like Duke Nukem and Quake. Good times.

Just tested it properly, works a treat!
Cheers fellow ol' timer FPS fan! I've found quite a few work around's to get lots of the old games running sweet on newer hardware.

If you ever run into any issues, get at me and i'll see if i can return that favour

Thanks mate 👍🏼

This improves it but it's still janky, any other way?

Did you use the file uploaded near the bottom of the thread that says "The mouse could definitely be hidden that way. Try this build. I just hard coded it to hide the mouse.

Just unzip this into the Shogo game folder: dinput.zip" ?

That's the one that worked for me

Yes I did, I can see the improvement though, but it's still janky and jittery so not really playable.

I'm also on 2560x1440p @165Hz, but I capped my fps to 59 just to be sure and it was the same.

Doesn't fix, my mouse movement is still stuttery and jittery.

You ALSO need to go to options, set smoothing to zero and mouse speed very low.

Should work :) I just died a lot on Suicide, second level.

I tried that, it's didn't change it

Odd, maybe because I used a dgvoodoo wrapper? I play at 2560x1440 fine.
