Mouse Input

[Francisè von Spitroast]

Mouse input isn't ideal. Doesn't feel as raw as most modern titles or the Quake games. I have VSync on and framerate cap at 200. Mouse acceleration is off on Windows.Anyone know how I can get better mouse input?

Do you happen to have a controller plugged in by any chance?

this might actually be a result of vsync being on, it can be nice to remove screen tearing but occasionally introduces some mouse lag and due to its nature, vsync also completely overrides your custom framerate cap. i recommend turning vsync off and setting your framerate cap to your monitor's refresh rate to minimize tearing and hopefully eliminate the mouse lag you're feeling!

Sorry, I actually meant to type in 'off'. Not sure how I made that mistake haha. I know that having it on really mucks with the input unless you have a GSync or Freesync monitor.
Appreciate the response anyway.

I have one that wirelessly connects and controller input it set on 'on' even though it's not on. Does that interfere?

I doubt that would cause any issues.
Could you try running the game in exclusive fullscreen mode for me and see if that helps at all? You'll need to add

 -window-mode exclusive 

to your launch options to enable it.
