Quote from Scawen :
I don't know what that mouse problem is with your custom resolution. It sounds like some kind of Windows or drivers bug or conflict. Somehow the mouse position isn't reported to LFS when it is in some parts of the screen...? And you say it's only at the bottom right? Do you mean the entire screen is OK except for a square in the bottom right corner? The only thing I can suggest is put your Rift part of the desktop on the other side. So if it is the right side of the desktop, try putting it on the left size of the main screen and see if that makes a difference. Some people could only make it work when the Rift was on the left...

There is a plan to allow head tracking and crosshairs to replace the mouse pointer. I think of this as one key/button to switch from mouse to crosshairs and another key/button for left mouse click. I don't know which patch this will come in though.

here is how i understand the problem. but i am not sure if there is something you can do about it.

headtracking sounds awesome! looking forward to future patchces.
keep up the good work

edit:
nevermind. the fix was as simple as it can get. i just figured out i had to choose the downsampling resolution in the windows settings too. now everything works just fine. just in case if somebody runs in to the same problem

hey scawen!

first of all! WONDERFUL JOB! :-) i have now played many many hours with my dk2 and lfs. and i can say that it is the best gaming experience i had to this point in my life. the feeling of being in the car is the sickest and best thing ever.


i have only one problem. i made a custom resolution (2560 * 1440) in my nvidia panel for downsampling. i can choose that resoltion from the menu and it works great and makes text more readable. the only problem is i cant reach the whole screen now with my mouse. in the right bottom corner there is a patch i cant reach. its blocked somehow. i tried the option at the top of the screen (connect mouse to screen) in on and off state. but it doesnt help in my custom resolution.

i suspect that it has to do something with my main screen not running at the same resolution. i guess with a downsampled resolution the mouse gets off the screen to the other monitor and if the monitor isnt at that resolution there is that part that cant be reached with the mouse. (if you understand what i mean - sry english aint my first language)

i dont know if that is something you can adress directly. but if not, is there something planned like controller or full keyboard support for the ingame menus? or did i miss something and that is already implemented?

sry for the long text

edit:
also another thing came to my mind just now. i think it would be an awesome feature to be able to sit on the passenger seat in replays. i just discoevered the option to sit a passenger next to you. would be kind of cool to show other people your racereplays as a passenger.
