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.

Search on google for rinput 1.3, its inject dll on the exec to force use directinput work fine here.


exec rinput.exe then type osu!.exe, open osu! and play. =)
I could be wrong, but I vaguely recall trying to use this, and had no clicks register. Not sure on any specifics other than that though... (not on 8.1 to test it atm either)

But if it works for others, then I guess there was something wrong on my part.

Games like battlefield have directinput, the dev from osu, could put option for directinput, in options.

Another way.

If Control Panel, Appearance and Personalization, Display shows a 'Smaller...Larger' slider.

Try clicking the 'Let me choose one scaling level for all my displays' checkbox.

Apply Markc mousefix.

work fine with 1 senstivity.

i think osu senstivity change windows sensitivity, then the markc mousefix stop work.

It fixes the 1:1 movement certainly

But it doesn't do anything about the 200hz polling limit, which makes mouse play at a high skill level significantly harder

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.

Because they use raw input from the mouse (ie WM_INPUT), bypassing Microsoft's latest changes

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.

I feel as though I'm going to have to install a native copy of win8.1 in order to figure this one out. VM just doesn't cut it since I cannot replicate the exact behaviour you are seeing.

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.

What if peppy developed a mouse driver that multiplies mouse input for the whole system?
It would also be nice to have 2 decimal digit multipliers. What do you say peppy?

Oops i got out of track, we are talking about Win8. Does anyone have a gaming mouse with adjustable DPI? Does this happen no matter what DPI are you using?

This happens no matter what DPI you're using, but I have no idea why you'd even bother using a setting other than 1.0x if you can change your DPI.

Not sure if it fixes the exact issue with osu! or not though.

Edit: Doesn't seem to help. If you want to test it, you have to flag osu!.exe to be affected by the update (instructions under "How to extend the update to other games").

I can confirm, this fix doesn't help much.

The windows 8.1 mouse fix doesn't effect osu :c.
But, i've found that if you right click, Properties, Compatibility and "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings". It will work for the most part, I do feel a few derps sometimes (could be just me), but it works quite well and is better than nothing.

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.

This didn't help the jumpy/erratic cursor movement I had with above/below 1.0x sensitivity.

Hi, well i was lurking (Alot) this forum since I have the same exact problem, just tried what Espionage724 said about the update, and it works very well, I still notice some derps here and there (Maybe it's just me :/) but definitely playable now.


Btw: Thanks!

Uhh, the mouse fix actually works, you just need to do a restart after adding osu! to the list(?).

I just got windows 8.1 yesterday and tried some of these solutions but none of them have worked.

I use a Razer Naga which has a customisable DPI so I just have to play on 1x (normally 2.5x) for now and try to adjust my DPI accordingly until a proper fix is found.

I have just now made a separate mouse profile for osu! since the mouse speed I use for the game is way too high for normal computer use. I hate having to swap between mouse profiles every time I want to play osu! though :(

Using DPI is a lot better O.o If you can use DPI and leave osu! at 1,0x.

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

Ignore this, I just tested the mouse fix again and it worked fine. Odd though, I restarted and then ran osu again and it failed. This time around it's working fine with a few derps here and there.

Now, the higher the sensitivity, the erraticness increases

Well, apparently we can fix osu! by manually extending the update part. The question is should i attempt to manually change it as the instructions say or should i wait until they have a fix fix? Also, does manually adding osu! solve the mouse sensitivity problem?

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. I guess I'll stick to 1.0x for now.

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.

Ah; if you ran Windows Update, you probably have the GA update; at some point before launch though you had to manually download the update.

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 don't think that the path below would work in 32-bit.
"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\osu!\\osu!.exe"="NoDTToDITMouseBatch"

So I uploaded a copy with this for the 32-bit (64-bit is also included, separated from 32-bit).

@Espionage724: The file path may differ depending on where you put your osu! folder at. So the registry tweak may not work on some people if they put osu! elsewhere than Program Files folder.

Same problem, but I have vista.
The movement also seems more sluggish during a song than it is elsewhere.

Well, I'm glad that it's playable at 1.0 sensitivity.

Had to change my desktop pointer speed to make it work well with 1.0. Hope this gets fixed soon though, cuz my mouse is zoomin around now. xD

For me, it says update is not applicable to your computer. What do i do?

Microsoft released a rollup that included the mouse fix, so you may already have the update. Verify that you have the rollup update first, then add the registry entry to flag osu! to receive the fix.

I have done just about everything on the Wiki page with all the downloads and everything correct about 3 times and I still have a very glitch mouse if I go above anything like 2.0x at best. Even at 2.0x it glitches a whole lot. Any additional suggestions?

It did not work after following the steps in the solution.
But then, i tried to put it in compatibility mode for Windows XP (Service Pack 3) and it worked perfect. :)
(I have Windows 8.1 32-Bits)
After I tried all the previous solutions, this one worked for me.

Can this fix be used for Windows 8?

If you happen to have this issue on windows 8, it is mostly likely something with your settings. Fix explained here fixes mouse issue which occurs when using sensitivity higher than 1,0x

Windows 8 doesn't have this issue, only Windows 8.1. If you're having an issue like this on 8, then there's something else causing the problem.

Thank you Espionnage724, you've made me save a few money.... when I first noticed this problem I just thought it was coming from my mouse and was considering buying a new one x) Your steps completly solved the problem (though it looks like I actually already had the fix, through an automatic update maybe?). For those whose problem may not be fixed, I personally had to change the directory (http://puu.sh/6OKpS.png) so maybe you should check it too.

So I updated to 8.1 today, and when I tried installing the windows patch, it said it wasn't applicable to my system. I followed the steps and now my cursor issues with mouse movement speed are resolved, but for whatever reason all my mouse movements in osu feel really off now. I've double checked to make sure mouse acceleration is turned off, but sometimes I'll be able to do big jumps and the next play my mouse will go like 3/4s of the way across the screen with what feels like the same hand motion.

I've had this issue before and I have no idea what I did to fix it. For a while all my jumps felt good and I knew exactly how far to move my mouse to get it where I wanted but now everything just feels... off.

Is this related to the windows 8.1 update? Or is it something completely different?

Test build has a potential fix for this. It also allows tablet users to change sensitivity. Please test and let me know how it feels.

I think I have the patch applied to my win 8.1 already so im not sure if i would still get mouse jitter, but currently in test build i can do 4.0x just fine with no jitter.

However going below 1.0x I cant move my cursor around the whole screen, its most notable at 0.5x where my mouse is locked to a small sub section of the osu window (usually the top right or bottom right, i cant move it to the left half of my screen). I am running it fullscreen windowed and have two monitors if thats important.
