    Anyone know how to turn off V-Sync ingame with nvidia rig.

    Right click desktop, -> Nvidia Control Panel, Manage 3D Settings, Program Settings. Click Add, browse to the Arma2.exe file, scroll down and select "Force Off" for the Vsync option. Hit apply. Done.

    Anyway, I am pretty sure the mouse lag is V-Sync related.

    Yet the true problem right now is to really be able to deactivate it, and some methods seem to work better than others.

    It's not a vsync related bug. What you are seeing is that vsync enabled *adds* to your input lag (just like almost any other game does with vsync enabled), so when disabling it, yes you are getting an improvement, the problem is still there though (unless you are one of the lucky ones that this bug does not affect for some reason).

    Hi everyone.

    By the looks of it, it seemed to me that this looked like a V-Sync problem.

    Indeed, ArmA II seems to cap one's FPS to its screen refresh rate, as can be seen by displaying the current number of FPS (via FRAPS or anything else).

    Since the game did not offer to disable V-Sync via the in-game menu or the .cfg files, I tried forcing V-Sync off.

    The Catalyst Control Center - even though set to "V-Sync always off" - failed to do so. Therefore I tried disabling it through ATI Tray Tools - which is supposedly lighter and more efficient.

    And it worked - no more capped FPS (I can now reach 100 sometimes) and no more mouse lag!

    Some friends of mine have confirmed this.

    It would be great if some of you experiencing this problem could try that too, see if it fixes that bug for you too.

    Then all BIS would have to do is create an option that allows those experiencing mouse lag to disable V-Sync.

    If you read the thread MANY of us have already tried forcing vsync off, among the other commonly (and redundantly...) repeated "fixes" of prerendered frames to 1 or 0 etc.

    Before you swap cards again... before you installed your new GTX 260, did you make sure to COMPLETELY uninstall the previous drivers before you installed the latest ones (also, I assume you downloaded the newest drivers from the nvidia website and did NOT use whatever was on the included drivers disk)? You can also look up a program called Driver Cleaner, it is supposed to wipe out every last trace of drivers just in case there is something left behind from the old ones that is causing a conflict with the new card.

    If all else fails I would format your OS/drive and start from scratch. It may be a pain if you have all your data stored only on your OS drive, but it's worth it if you want to get the most out of your new card.

    I dont want to bitch or saying that your guys problem doesnt exist.

    But in the video

    i dont see any mouselag.....For me its exactly the same and that feels normal to me,......

    Are you guys talking about the gun moving first and then the actual screen? Cause its indeed always been like that, and thats a feature i think.

    Even so, i hope you guys get a solution for your problem

    No, it's NOT just the way the gun site moves. Come on, we're not stupid. BTW, in that video, I don't see much input lag compared to what I've been getting.

    I figured I would bump this because I'm having the exact same mouse lag problems, and others on the gaming forum I visit are too.

    My specs:

    Intel E6750

    Nvidia 8800GT

    4gb ram

    SB Audigy

    MS Intellimouse Optical

    Like others have said before me, lag gets better when FPS goes *very* high like over 80 or 90 fps, but when you go to 50fps or lower it starts to get unplayable. I have tried all of the possible "fixes" (forcing vsync off, prerendered frames, etc.), none of that makes any difference.

    This is literally blocking me from buying this game, because it's just too frustrating to play. There obviously has to be some common ground here between all these users that have this input lag.

    One other game I've played that had a completely unfixable mouse lag just like Arma/Arma 2 was Far Cry 2. Anyone else with the lag problems in Arma every try playing that game?
