Fallout 4 and Skyrim SE - Gyro is choppy

Hi!

Since about a week ago the Gyro is choppy, when playing FO4 and Skyrin Special Edition. I configured the Gyro as Mouse Joystick, it did work fine before.

Other games aren't affected, tried with Witcher 3 and others, the gyro works smooth as it should with those games, only FO4 and Skyrim have a choppy gyro.. the touchpad works smooth as always in Mouse Joystick mode.

I'm on the beta channel, but tried Public also, made no change, also reinstalled Steam, didn't help.

Any ideas? Maybe an update for those games have broken it?

I would be thankfull for any advice..

Greetings,
Passa

Raise the sensitivity in game or use mouse instead of mouse joystick. Mouse joystick is not ideal.

Other than that you can try to tweak deadzones and other advanced options on the mouse joystick but it mostly relies on what the game tells it.

So if it was smooth before and isn't now, then there's something on the game's end.

Try checking the mouse smoothing options, and the "minimum movement threshold". If those settings aren't being used right it can lead to issues.

If you move to Mouse input like suggested by Vepar, make sure to switch all of your bindings to be mouse and keyboard, as those two games don't support simultaneous input.

Thanks for your advices.

Haven't found time to answer until now.

Unfortunately nothing helped, Gyro ist still choppy in Mouse Joystick mode, more or less.It seems to happen only in games from Bethesda (Skyrim SE, FO4 & Dishonored), others I tried are working smooth as they should, so I think the gyro is working as it should.

And it's only the gyro in this mode, the touchpad work smooth for me in Mouse Joystick mode, very usable for me, which seems strange to me.

Tried with KB/M Configuration too, thats smooth as silk, but I personally don't like it this way, I am used to Gamepad Configuration and the matching onscreen display of the buttons to press.

So I will not use the gyro for that games at the moment, and have a look once a while, if it has been fixed.

I tried Fallout 4 and don't have these choppy effects you are speaking of. I do have my gyro for joystick mouse set at defaults as well as the right touchpad at defaults. I did not use trigger dampening for either of them...What settings are you using for gyro and trigger dampening??

Standard Settings, nothing changed except Y Axis inverted. Activated by touching right pad. Im thinking of setting up Windows new, reinstalling Steam also didnt help, maybe something else is messing up, dont know what it could be though.

Well, I did now reinstall Windows and Steam from scratch. Gyro is fine when using the Steam Controller directly on the pc, but still choppy when playing FO4 via the link.. What the heck?!?

I'm really clueless now.
