Dead Space 2 - Dead Space 2 Mouse Fix v.1.2.1 - Game mod - Download

Dead Space 2 Mouse Fix is a mod for Dead Space 2, created by Methanhydrat.

Description (in author’s own words):

This fix makes Dead Space 2 use raw mouse input without any additional smoothing or acceleration. It works with VSync and high frame rates and is easy to install without having to fiddle around with FPS limiters or config files.

Quick start guide:

Extract the file dinput8.dll to your main game folder. For example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin\games\Dead Space 2\".

Start the game like you would normally, for example directly through Origin or Steam

Features

Even though the mouse controls in Dead Space 2 are better than in the first one, it still suffers from many of the same issues. Most notably, it has negative mouse acceleration and a sensitivity that is dependent on the frame rate, which leads to inconsistent movement when the performance is not stable.

This fix circumvents those problems by acquiring raw mouse input and injecting it directly into the game's camera functions.

Its features include:

Raw mouse input independent of FPS or VSync

Reasonable sensitivity range

Same sensitivity in each direction

No dead zone for slow movement

No additional smoothing or positive/negative mouse acceleration

Improved mouse cursor

No automatic camera re-center

Configuration via the ingame settings as usual

Simple installation and usage without any external configuration

Instructions

Supported Versions

This mod is designed for the latest, fully patched versions of Dead Space 2 and might not work when used with older or otherwise modified executables.

Origin/Retail

Steam

Install

The mod does not make any permanent changes to the game or to Windows and can easily be removed.

Extract the file dinput8.dll to your main game folder. For example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin\games\Dead Space 2\".

Start the game like you would normally, for example directly through Origin or Steam

Uninstall

Remove or rename the dinput8.dll from the folder of the game.

Known Issues

There are some short sections in the game where the fix does not work properly, for example the zero-g areas. I am currently looking for savegames close to those locations, so I can investigate the issues.

The fix is also currently not compatible with latest version of ReShade, due to raw input conflicts, which result in the fix not receiving any mouse data.
