Mouse cursor does not stay in window

[Ian Dancy]

My mouse cursor is not staying in the game window. I have tried fullscreen and windowed and clicked the box to lock the cursor but it does not work. I tried both DX11 and DX12 just in case, no luck. I run a dual monitor setup and i run the game in my native res.

Can anyone help me out?

I run quad monitor set up, the mouse is designed to stay within the window only in fullscreen, make sure to check Nvidia or AMd control panel to ensure your games are using application settings and not being over written, if this still doesn't work, it's possible corruption in DRG's configuration, try verifying the game's cache

Thanks Myta, I verified the game files successfully but no joy. I have made sure my Nvidia control panel 3D settings for DRG are on default, all are showing use global setting. Is there a particular feature in the Nvidia CP i need to be looking for?

Hmm, strange, does the cursor move outside of the screen during gameplay or only when visible?

the "game" cursor stays in the game screen but the desktop cursor keeps going, out of the screen to the second monitor. Then of course if i left click the mouse it focuses to the desktop out of game meaning i have to quickly move the mouse back again to have any input into the game. It happens when both within the main game FPS sections as well as in the menus

okay, this helps, do you use a custom cursor in windows or cursor trail?

[Ian Dancy]

Alas no neither a custom cursor or cursor trail. I did have YOLO mouse installed but its not running (it just changes the cursor shape it specific games i select, but as i say its not running

I have found a workaround at least. If i go to the Nvidia control panel and "manage multiple displays" I can move the second monitor higher than the first monitor (usually the diagram shows side by side displays). This now stops the cursor moving over to the second monitor as its not directly off screen to the first. Not ideal as it stays that way after closing the game. I guess I could use a 3rd party window lock program but would rather not?

Hi! I have the same problem. So i must disable the 2nd monitor on NVIDEA control panel anytime i play DRG?

Check the options menu, and try ticking the "lock mouse to game window" box next to the fullscreen mode option.

I actually have this exact issue with my own dual monitor setup. The only thing that worked for me was to get a program that locks the cursor to a given monitor. Most programs do this by just snapping the cursor back to the monitor you want it on, but that is not sufficient for this game as there's still enough time to accidentally click off.

However, I found one that does work called Dual Monitor Tools, which you can just leave running and have a keyboard shortcut for when you want to lock/unlock the cursor (I use Ctrl+Win+Z myself).

You can get it from http://dualmonitortool.sourceforge.net/index.html
