Mouse is jumping.

[chemicalvamp]

I've been trying compatibility settings but nothing has worked yet.

I can move my mouse in circles, and when it happens it will jump in the direction it was moving all the way to the edge of the screen.

Anyone have any ideas?

First, try updating your mouse software. Next, if you have a backup mouse, try using it to see if it still happens. Or borrow a mouse from a friend.

I'm getting this bug too.

Same issue here

I've just started having this issue too, after years of nothing. Restarted, unplugged/plugged mouse back in, nada. Windows 10.

New player here...it seems something to do with fullscreen mode. Disable Fullscreen mode in the launcher.

[Shadowrc]

Disabling Fullscreen solved it for me too, thanks Jeans.

[Sanmei]

Ditto, but I'm wondering why it started in the first place and how to make it stop when it IS in full screen...

Do we all have the same corsair mouse? or perhaps its windows fault.

[Shadowrc]

I play this with a Logitech mouse in Windows chemicalvamp. I am not sure what the issue is, but fullscreen would've been nice though. I highly doubt it will be officially patched since the devs are defunct now, as far as I know.

[chemicalvamp]

Defunct, really? I thought they just released a new game recently, Clockwork something?
But I understand they won't be patching it. I believe the problem was caused by a change in windows or perhaps even directX. If so i imagine a fix could be to place the library(DLL) that worked correctly in the directory of the game.

[Shadowrc]

You could be right, and a fix can be possible with the right troubleshooting skills. Disabling fullscreen is more of workaround that'll likely be the main stay solution due to the lack of support, unless a fan-made patch is produced.

After Clockwork Empires, Gaslamp Games stopped posting updates on twitter (it's been a year now) and went silent on their forum. A wiki posting explained that after Dec 2016, staff reportedly moved on to other projects, and is practically defunct because of that. I think Clockwork Empires was not successful enough to maintain the company. It might be operating with a skeleton crew (to maintain the company website and stuff), I don't know specifics. It's a safe bet that unless the company is revitalized, it's defunct enough to stop any further development for current or future projects. I would've liked a more official annoucement on their status though, but it is what it is.

Same problem here, it's as if it's registering your movements as if they were on the windowed games screen so a small flick will be a large percentage of the screen crossed. But it's only doing it imtermitantely

Is everyone who is experiencing this mouse jumping issue have the Windows 10 Fall Creator Update installed on their PC? I'm asking because not only am I getting this issue in Dungeons of Dredmore now, but I also got the same issue in a completely different game, and in both cases I've only noticed it after installing the Fall Creator update for Windows 10.

The other game is Diablo 1, but only if I use a mouse clicker program (used for auto attacking). The clicker program worked fine before I updated Windows 10, but after the update the mouse cursor will occasionally jump around every few seconds if you hold the left mouse button down. Luckily I found a work around using a different program, X-Mouse Button Control.

I'm glad putting the game in windowed mode fixes the issue in DoD, but I wonder how many other games experience this problem.

[chemicalvamp]

I originally thought this was an issue with our windows 10 version of a legacy DirectX module
"xinput1_3.dll" being changed, But I downloaded an archieve from 2010 and placed that old dll in DoD install directory where "Dungeons of Dredmor.exe" would look for it before going to C:\Windows\System32\ But it didn't work. In fact the file is the exact same size.

Well I don't think it being broken is any fault of the the developers. Microsoft broke this somehow but I'm out of ideas 'how'.
