fixed High mouse polling rate impacting framerate

[Smashy]

When using the mouse for anything in a 3D context (in game, ME loadout page, encyclopedia), I notice that frame rate will tank to about 30% of normal with huge spikes in frame time.

For anyone curious, try this.  Hop into the game, open the in-game FPS counter and move the mouse around.  If it's not happening to anyone else, maybe it's me.  The only change to my system or DCS was today's patch.

I can try to capture a video if needed, I don't think a trackfile will capture the problem.

Edit - it happens all the time, not just when 3D elements are on the screen.  For example, frame rate and frame time spikes occur with mouse movement on the main menu; it's not noticeable to the eye.

Same is happening with me when I use mouse look which is a lot. This is just since this last update in case any of the admin are looking at this.

 

As a bit of extra info, it only seems to be related to mouse movement for looking around the cockpit. I can leave the mouse alone and use the numlock pad and its smooth as it should be.

Yes this is pretty bad. 

[GreyGoo]

I have the same problem.

[jackill]

Same. It spikes frame time like crazy. Hovered if you are veeeery slow with this movement, then fps is fine. Zoom in with mouse wheel does not have this issue.

Also wanted to chime in and mention I am having the same problem listed here. Mouse movements appear to drastically hurt FPS

I'm having the same issue as well since the update.  If I'm flying and I move the mouse around it makes the game stutter massively..

Same here .. huge spikes lag when using mouse after yesterday's update 

[Ramses823]

Yea this is a very annoying issue but I get it with new features comes new bugs, but a fix for this definitely needs to be a priority...

+1 I have those mouse spikes specially in menus. Constant spikes during mouse movements.

@Grindmetal Thank you - changing polling rate from 1000 Hz to 500 Hz did the trick  Very strange bug, even in menu moving the mouse caused frametime spikes.

[Smashy]

Good find @Grindmetal.  Bumping from 1000Hz to 500Hz worked for me too.

I've changed polling rate from 4000 to 1000 and it fixed!

Well done finding the fix!

Same issue here, will test the solution tomorrrow. Thanks for the find.

How is this even possible? It's getting comical at this point, having to change mouse settings in order to have a playable experience, wtf.

[normanleto]

Same here. Funny thing I've changed my steel series mouse for my simpler logitech one my wife is using. The problem is gone. However, in my steelseries Rival mouse, even lowering the polling rate to 125 did not solve the problem. So I am using my wife's mouse rn, waiting for solution.

Best,

How I can select polling rate? I´m on logitech 502. Only windows default drivers.

Good find man, but I still hope it will be fixed quickly and officially. I shouldn't be forced to change my mouse sensitivity to play after a new patch

[FilipeAbdo]

+1 Comment marked as solution is only a workaround, and proper fix is required

Como posso selecionar a taxa de polling? Estou no logitech 502. Apenas drivers padrão do Windows.
