Mouse is spinning inside sandboxed Games [SOLVED]

Post by Creave » Sat Apr 22, 2017 5:53 am

Theres a bug in a few sandboxed Games like Minecraft, Garry's Mod and Black Ops (most Games work just fine): The mouse is spinning crazy fast in circles! Not in the menus, only as soon as I am inside the Gameplay. I switched to a different mouse to see if it is a driver problem but it is still spinning. I also uninstalled the games, rebooted and installed them again. Still spinning.
Why is that? Why those games in particular? :?:

Edit: Maybe this helps: If I change the resolution of Black Ops and Garry's Mod to 1280x720 it works! But not at 1600x900 or 1920x1080 (Windows scaling is at 125% but still the same problem when deactivating scaling for high DPI for those particular games)!

When I configure Windows scaling back to 100% instead of 125% it works! But this makes text almost impossible for me to read. Is there any way to solve this?

Hello Creave,

What are your OS, Sandboxie and Antivirus versions? What's your Desktop resolution?
Can you provide exact repro steps for Garry's Mode so that I can test the behavior?

See if this helps:

Solved the problem! The Windows 10 DPI scaling was the issue. Prevent this from happening by not changing the scaling settings.
