Mouse Cursor sluggish in cockpit
-
I had the same problem on a previous laptop and was never able to resolve the issue. I’ve recently purchased a new laptop (HP Envy, 16GB RAM, Intel i7 5500U 2.4 GHz, Windows 8.1 64 bit, Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M) and in cockpit the mouse cursor is aggravatingly slow. I’ve tried adjusting the mouse cursor sensitivity, both all the way left and all the way right, and it seems about the same. Is there any way I can fix this? I’ve tried moving the graphic settings all the way left, but that makes no difference. I imagine 16GB ram should be pretty decent for this game, no? How can I make the mouse cursor ‘normal’. Mouse sensitivity is maxed out in Windows, and it works just fine there. Only in BMS in cockpit is it slow - painfully slow.

What are you in-game/pit frame rates (CTRL-Z, then R)?
I had similar problem at low(er) FPS. One thing to do is turn off the option for the mouse to ‘stick’ to clickable features. It’s in the BMS Config file. I:\Falcon BMS 4.32\User\Config\falcon bms.cfg . This line: set g_b3DClickableCursorAnchored 0 // If enabled, the cursor is anchored on hotspot while moving view.
That may not help, but at least it keeps your mouse from ‘sticking’ when you don’t mean it to.
Also, check the graphics setup page and see if BMS is seeing your GTX graphics. If not, and if you can, point it to that.

My FPS is only about 11-13. And BMS does not seem to recognize the GTX card, only the Intel i7 5500. Is there a way to change that outside of BMS?

Not sure on the GFX card recognition, but I would say the slow mouse is 100% related to the low FPS. It’s exactly the same as how my mouse was with low FPS.

I managed to force the GTX card to be used with BMS, and now I’m up to about 30-35 FPS with the graphic settings maxed out in-game, and about 40+ FPS with the graphics all the way down. I also looked through a few other posts and found that adjusting the g_fMouseSensitivity to about 2 or 2.5 was supposed to help - I just didn’t know where the BMS config file was, until you told me Agave_Blue. So, thanks! It’s not quite as crisp as it is normally, but it’s a lot better than it had been. Thanks for the help!

These are the settings you want to look at:
The various shaders can demand a ton of FPS, especially shadows, glass, jet exhaust and motion blur …. in my experience. Turn most of that stuff off, then try them one at a time to see what kind of impact they have visually and FPS-wise. Choose what balances ‘eye candy’ and performance best for you. 30 FPS is about the min you can run smoothly and you may have issues in high object environments and/or high(er) graphics theaters.
