Camera keeps spinning [FIXED]
The camera won't stop spinning. Please help.

EDIT: I managed to fix the issue by plugging in a controller. For some reason the game likes to spin the camera if you don't have a controller.

I experience that when I tab out of the game at the exact moment I move my mouse. Like the game tries to switch to mouse camera and gets stuck immediately upon tabbing out, moving the camera in the direction your mouse moved before tabbing.

A simple restart fixes things for me, but it sure is annoying sometimes, especially if you're tabbing - addicted like me, I'm tabbing out of every loading screen.

I've restarted the game multiple times, restarted my computer and even downloaded the game again and nothing works.

Other than fiddling around with your camera settings and turning things on and off I wouldn't know how to help you, I'm very sorry.

Try to google it first, if it's not on your end normally some other dude has had the same problem before. If you don't find anything, reinstall. You could also try locating the text file within the Dark souls 3 folder that has the camera settings and see if there's anything unusual.

To be fair, I've never heard of your kind of problem until now.

Right, you can always try to use a different controller / mouse / whatever and check what's happening then.

I tried looking it up before posting this thread and people with the problem were mostly trying to get a PS4 controller to work.

I managed to fix the problem by plugging in a 360 controller. For some reason FS really doesn't want you to play with a mouse and keyboard.

I understand people prefer a controller for Souls games but since this is my first Souls game on PC I wanted to try using my mouse and keyboard. When I play previous Souls games with a controller I end up doing a claw grip and I find that to be uncomfortable.

I actually have a HOTAs and throttle setup, and the game recognizes my throttle, and when it's forward or backwards, the camera spins.

One reason why is when you go into menu you can have your camera just spin in place, the input lag and transition in the game is wonky and can be repeated in other ways.

I've never had this problem before yesterday when I installes it DS3 again. It fixed itself somehow over night while the pc was still running. It started again randomly. I am not using any controllers though. I do have a Dualshock 3 controller that I used for For Honor. So I have SCP Toolkit as driver.

Did you hear the song 'You Spin Me Right Round Baby,' playing? If so, kill the guy playing it, and the spinning should stop.
