Lanceraad: I've recentley bought Giants, and I've run into some pretty severe mouse Acceleration problems.

when I started the campaign, I noticed that if I moved the mouse slowly the screen barely moves.
ajusting the mouse sensetivety made it a bit better, but it's still not very playable
my first thought was that it had somthing to do with mouse sensetivety, but it looks more like extreme case of mouse acceleration

so, is there somthing I can do to disable mouse acceleration?
I'm running the game on windows 8, wich may be the cause

Thank you in advance

Sickboy: I realize this is an old post, but I was playing the game at my brother's house and figured out that the fix for the mouse acceleration issue is to use the unofficial 1.497 BETA patch and the "-framelimit" launch parameter it supplies. Simply raising the mouse sensitivity or using the patch as-is does *not* really manage to fix the problem enough to be tolerable. Using something like "-framelimit 100" does though. It still isn't perfect, but it's waaaay better than without it.

To do this, you need to download and install the unofficial 1.497 BETA patch, located here: http://www.giantswd.org/?file=31&search_name=1.497&search_author=&search_type=&search_db=&sort=Name&Submit=Search

Then create or edit the shortcut for Giants, and in the Target field add "-framelimit 100" (without quotes, and using whatever number you want to limit the framerate to). Example:

"C:\blahblahblah\Giants ・Citizen Kabuto\Giants.exe" -framelimit 100

This made the game completely playable and enjoyable for me, so hopefully it'll work for the rest of you (try lower numbers if it's still quirky). That unofficial patch is amazing as it is since it fixes a ton of stuff, is multiplayer-compatible, and increases the graphical quality.

Hope this helps you all!

pwertzoid: I found that forcing Supersampling AA with Catalyst Control Center helped with mouse control, Multisampling and Adaptive Multisampling did not however.
