Re: Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
So its been a week since I installed Tiny11. The issue has NOT come up. Which is absolutely amazing. :D Thank you for everyone who helped/try to help. ^_^ Only Windows 10 was having the issue... My only real theory on this is Macrocrap could be silently.. Phasing out Win10 for 11, even though they ...

Re: Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
I'll be trying Tiny11 when it downloads. I should be able to run Win11 with no issue (outside of hoping it kills this curse) seeing as it's "minimum" requirements normally is something I exceed in. (despite the PC checker saying my PC isn't good enough for it). Its just weird, but it is a legal ...

Re: Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
Yeah, all I can give is what I said before. It lasts a week with no issues, then the API breaks on the exact day of 1 week.. It definitely something with the OS screwing up somewhere. After initial installation, 2 days later it installed .net framework and Security update for 22H2, Windows Update ...

Re: Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
Mk, this time I did the USB x Rufus with a iso of latest update Windows (while deleting old partition for no residual files for OS), and this time not log into MS in OS itself, so heres to hoping I dont have the issue.
and just incase, reseated my GPU in new slot, see if slot could be at fault.

Re: Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
Yeah, I'm at a loss, I dont know where to find a completely clean OS Image, I've done so many variations of Resets, from keeping files, wiping the drive clean, USB to build the OS... I have figured fully it is OS, as Ubuntu worked even after a week, but I hate how complex it is, I am so used to the ...

Re: Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
The Curse continues....
Running thin on how I can fix this, even got a new mouse, just 1 week.. Or I dont know how to do the clean boot.
The only things that could be culprit is RAM, or Mobo, or GPU in some shape or form... And I cant replace either.

Re: Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
Just going to state that Mouse Lock API is now called Pointer Lock API, just to be clear. Because this is ultra specific, i am going to be blunt and state that even a reinstalle of Windows does not change whatever customary change has occurred on the system since it was bought. Because, by powers ...

Re: Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
Alright, I went through a completely clean image, OS installed from a portable drive and not the disc, will contact in a week if the problem happens again or if the curse finally lifts itself because clean image was the answer.

Re: Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
Thank you for responding. GzDoom/Skulltag/Doom source ports are good, they work fine and keep the mouse in, its just Doom Builder, StarCraft and some those games the problem persists on. I have no remote outsourcing for play on my Desktop, and I have turned off all the pen and touch stuff (dont own ...

Re: Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
The only other info I can think on is RawInput, I dont know what controls it, if theres a Registry that can be fuddled to fix, or what.

Mouse Confine/Mouse Lock API fails on certain games.
So I've had this issue for a while, since when I updated my mobo and CPU due to a power failure, certain games using Mouselock API / Mouse confinement will fail to keep the mouse in bounds of the screen. I have tried CursorLock, free trial of DisplayFusion, DualMonitorTools, while they kept my mouse ...

Re: Ultimate Doom Builder
The Administration Rights use of it had no affect, the mouse continues to go out of DB's visual mode. And I am unsure how I can fix the RawInput thing if it is that. I kept googlin and clicking around and nothing has said how to fix it except Game specific type of stuff. And for Antivirus, I use ...

Re: Ultimate Doom Builder
So I'm having an issue that affects all DoomBuilder for some reason, but I use Ultimate specifically, is Visual Mode's cursor lock stops working. I am Mithral_Demon on Doomworld and had posted https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/128742-doom-builder-visual-mode-mouse-lock/ , and havent gotten much ...
