Are you sure it's the API. Just asking because my touchpad still works even though the mouse doesn't when I set the sensitivity to 2.5x.peppy wrote:
This looks to be an issue at Microsoft's end. The API to change the mouse cursors location no longer works.

But if it works for others, then I guess there was something wrong on my part.
But it doesn't do anything about the 200hz polling limit, which makes mouse play at a high skill level significantly harder
osu uses WM_MOUSEMOVE and/or the other non-raw mouse events, which are now capped at 200hz. This is what mouserate.exe measures
Hopefully peppy can implement raw input, even just as a wrapper around the existing mouse movement code with appropriate scaling.
=/ Microsoft hates gamers, i hope SteamOS can be great.
Sensitivity != 1.0 is still very derpy
At 4.0x i'm doing the exact same small spinning motion
Why, Microsoft? So close and yet..
I would just use this all the time but I hate having to constantly switch between mouse profiles.
I can't seem to find a DPI setting that feels the same either. No matter what I do it feels off and it sucks having to change settings after months of using these ones T-T
Again, I can manage like this but it was much simpler before aha
Now, the higher the sensitivity, the erraticness increases
It doesn't fix the sensitivity != 1.0x issue though

Until the final release, I cannot support this. Please use 1.0x or rollback.
Just for the record, I'm using the final retail build (9600), and this is still a problem. Unless Microsoft releases a hotfix post-release, this will still be a problem when Windows 8.1 launches.

9600 is the final RTM build, which was officially released on MSDN to developers and manufacturers, who get it earlier than the public. And peppy just confirmed on his twitter that the RTM build still doesn't have this fixed, so this won't be fixed unless there is a hotfix post-release.
Depending on my VM settings, I can actually make it work correctly on 9600.winblue_rtm.130821-1623. I found this out after posting on twitter. I am waiting for confirmation of people running in a non-VM environment, as I don't have the resources to test this currently.
I'll give my build number another check when I get home then. I'm running Windows 8.1 Pro (Build 9600) in a non-VM environment on my desktop PC and I'm having this issue. I'm pretty sure that 9600.winblue_rtm.130821-1623 is the only build with the 9600 tag though.
Is the setting you changed only relevant to VMs? If not, what did you change?
Is the setting you changed only relevant to VMs? If not, what did you change?
I have mouse-specific driver hacks at an OS X level, and parallels has game optimisations settings at a VM level. One combination of these makes the mouse work as expected again.
Alright, my registry's "BuildLab" key reads "9600.winblue_rtm.130821-1623", so it's safe to assume we're on the same build.
As I've said before, I'm running it natively and still having the issue. So I believe that the fix on your end has to do with the VM, and not with the build of Windows 8.1.

Easily visible in song selection and main menu. But normal behavior in options menu.

In a Reddit thread on this subject, someone made the point that any driverless mouse (onboard memory etc.) is less badly affected.
I can play the game with as much accuracy as before with my Xai, however I'm getting a fair bit of input lag - it feels the cursor position only updates 60 times a second. I normally play at 300-500 fps on 120hz with a polling rate of 960hz, so the difference is very noticeable. The performance is identical to 60fps limit on 8.0.
The reddit thread also mentioned that raw mouse input games are unaffected, hopefully this is feasible to implement.

There's a rather large thread on MDL about the issue: http://forums.mydigitallife.info/thread ... g-in-Games
In any case, I usually always play at 1.0x, and haven't noticed any issue. I tried messing with the in-game sensitivity though, and the cursor got erratic. Wasn't too bad at values below 1.0x (but still noticeable), but it got real bad at values above 1.0x.
This is with a Microsoft Comfort Mouse 6000 with 2.2.173 Mouse and Keyboard Center drivers (latest) on 8.1 RTM (with GA updates).

Also earlier in the thread I mentioned a 60fps vsync effect - this was actually my mistake - my nvidia optimus settings had reset during the 8.1 upgrade so it was running on the integrated graphics
The only issue is the 200hz limit on mouse rate, and until Microsoft provide a fix for this, DirectInput is the only solution for osu. The solution proposed on some sites of compatibility mode and disabled DPI system doesn't work and is likely placebo as it appears to apply a vsync-like effect.

Does it go crazy when you change it in the option menu? because mine is fine with the options n single player games. It just spazz out when I press F8/F9. Set the frame limiter to Unlimited and It'll be fine for singleplayer.

Is it hard to implement the raw input api? Would basically kill two birds with one stone as you could then apply sensitivity more accurately and it would fix the mouse rate input lag issue.peppy wrote:

PSA: use sensitivity at 1x until this is fixed

It would also be nice to have 2 decimal digit multipliers. What do you say peppy?

That update only seems to fix stuttering and/or freezing cursors. I'd assume the fix for jumpy/unresponsive cursor is something separate..
Quick correction on this; it actually does seem to help. I didn't take note of that ShimFlushCache instruction (either it wasn't there before, or I really did miss it; in any case, take note to do step 8). That plus a reboot, and osu! with sensitivity above/below 1.0x works fine, for me anyway.Espionage724 wrote:

That fix completely solved the issue for me. I can select sensitivities well above 1.0x without getting jumpy cursors like I was before I applied the update. I applied the registry fix, did the ShimFlushCache step, then rebooted and that fixed the problem. Mouse also seems slightly more responsive as well.
I notice that osu! seems to be taking longer to load with the fix, but that's a really minor issue compared to jumpy mouse.

This doesn't seem to be the case for me. I applied the fix and extended the update to osu and the problem is still there for me when I raise the mouse sensitivity in osu's settings. I made sure the path to the file is correct and the value data is correct too. So, this fix didn't work for me and it appears it didn't fix the sensitivity issue for other users here as well.

Updated (11/8)
We want to thank our gaming community for the detailed feedback many of you have provided on these issues. We have released some fixes and workarounds that will allow you to get back to your gaming.
The “mouse lag” issue is actually several different issues that could vary based on the game, input methods used, etc.
The three following issues are addressed by a fix we have provided in KB 2908279:
Mouse jitters (jumps forward and back) as you move it through a game
– This occurs in some games because Windows 8.1 introduced changes to mouse input processing for low latency interaction scenarios and this causes some games to respond differently to mouse input than in previous releases of Windows.
Mouse movement is not to scale even after acceleration is turned off
– If you have turned off acceleration to make the distance on the screen match the distance you move the mouse, that may not work correctly anymore.
Measured mouse Polling Rate has a lower reporting frequency than expected
– If you have a gaming mouse that has a high frequency, when you test it, you may find it is reporting a lower frequency than you expect. Note: if you previously encountered issues with measuring the polling rate you will need to follow the instructions in KB 2908279 to ensure that, not only the patch is installed, but also the app used to measure the polling rate has an appropriate registry entry to enable the fix for that specific executable.

Has this update been released on windows update yet?
I am having the same problem. Mouse movements are not to scale which is making it almost impossible for me to do spinners. So do we just need to wait for another update or...?

I wonder if the update gets offered if you happen to have one of those games it mentions installed, but I doubt it.
So I guess microsoft are just saying "fuck you" to gamers in general then? Forcing everyone to encounter problems and find this hotfix on their own?
LOL
Is there still no solution on this? T_T
What if I have problems with my mouse stability and sensitivity on a non-Windows 8 OS? Because I'm not really sure if it's just the mouse's laser len thing or the program itself, because it used to work perfectly fine with osu.

I can confirm this update solves the problem completely, but you need to follow the steps given in the page (instead of just installing the update).

It would be nice to convert the fix to a wiki page, so it is easier to link to people having issues.
