[Bug 28074] New: Audiosurf: mouse too sensitive during gameplay compared to running in Windows

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28074

Summary: Audiosurf: mouse too sensitive during gameplay
                    compared to running in Windows
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.26
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

When playing Audiosurf using Wine, the mouse is too sensitive and it's easy to
make mistakes as a result, such as hitting greys.  
This does not happen when running Audiosurf in Windows.

VERY CLOSE to being fixed.  The mouse sensitivity now works much better when
playing Audiosurf in Wine version 1.3.37 - and you can change the mouse speed
by pressing ESC during gameplay and that works better.

Please keep up the good work.  You're very close to having the mouse movement
in Audiosurf working as if it were being played in Windows 7.

The mouse in Audiosurf is now very "slippery" during gameplay, compared to
running Audiosurf in Windows 7.

Could you provide some more information?

What distribution are you using? What desktop environment?

Are you booting directly into Linux or are you running this inside a virtual
machine? Virtual machines can sometimes have poor mouse integration.

Is the mouse movement smooth/consistent, where the player always moves the same
distance with the same mouse movement, or does the movement tend to jump
around?

Does adjusting the mouse speed in the settings menu make any difference?

Finally, does this problem happen with any other games, or is it specific to
Audiosurf?

Thanks. :)

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit, not in a virtual machine.  I use Unity mostly,
but also use GNOME sometimes, since Unity can make fullscreen apps puke or
misbehave.

The mouse moves too fast sideways - the slightest nudge makes the player move
sideways too fast.  This makes it too easy to make mistakes in the game,
especially when dodging the greys with the "Mono" character.  In Windows 7, the
player moves much slower (but not too slow) and "smoothly", not in a sudden
jolt.  It's best to test this game in Wine and real Windows - if possible, then
you will notice the difference.

Adjusting the mouse speed in the settings does make a difference - but it just
makes the character move either too fast or too slowly.

I've only discovered this problem in Audiosurf so far.

Hope that helps? :)

Either I can't reproduce it, or the change in mouse behavior is much too subtle
for me to notice - Audiosurf seems to run perfectly for me. Sorry.

You said that the mouse input worked fairly well under Wine 1.3.37, and on
2013-01-20 (just after Wine 1.5.22 was released), you said it was slippery.
Maybe run a regression test to identify the commit that made it become
slippery? It'll take some time to do, but it would greatly help us in better
understanding the problem.

This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for over a
year. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.37 or newer) wine? If so, please
attach the terminal output in 1.7.37 (see http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log).
