Mouse lag during tactical missions

(1/3) > >>

Magician:
I must admit that this game has truly developed in the spirit of X-COM, and have been truly enjoying it, especially the wealth of background material which has been prepared in the UFOpedia.

Unfortunately, I have been encountering an issue which remains in spite of all my efforts.

Although the mouse moves at a normal speed at the menu and geosphere, with hardly any differences from its usual operation on the desktop, this changes as soon as I enter a tactical mission. It immediately begins to lag.

It seems to be isolated only to the mouse, as commands from the keyboard are executed immediately. I also noted that going to the options menu (while in tactical combat) removes the lag experienced -- but this returns if I attempt to change the video settings from there.

This has persisted, even though I opened the task manager to ensure that its process was given a High priority, and also brought down the video and music settings to the lowest possible settings.

My question is: can I do anything about this, or should I await a future release?

Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit)

try to deactivate the threaded optimization in the nvidia control panel - see our faq for more info about it

Magician:
