Hey folks,

We'v encountered a weird bug in Planetside 2, it's like the mouse is jumping or
not responding at all when aiming in the free world.

If you go on foot, or sits behind a turret you can turn your mouse but it looks
and feels like the mouse is one step behind and starts to jitter around, which
makes aiming almost impossible.
The curious part is that it doesn't happen in the menus, or if you'r in a
vehicle. Can't describe it better.

What we have done so far:

- Using a native imm32.dll to enable ingame menus
- d3dx9_43 (via Winetricks)
- d3dcompiler_43 (via Winetricks)

tested myself with native dinput.dll and dinput8.dll and turning off
mouse-acceleration.

Using wine-1.5.23 non-patched on Ubuntu 12.10 64bit

Game Homepage: planetside2.com



Hope I have mentioned everything, log is attached - sry it's the first time I
post a bugreport myself

Adding a new log from some extended play and WINEDEBUG=-all to avoid all those

I would really like to see this fixed and would like to offer a bounty for
fixing it. When this bug gets fixed and PS2 reaches Gold status on Ubuntu, I'll
donate $100 to the wine development fund.

If any other PS2 players would like to contribute to this bounty, please speak
up. Offer just $1 on the bounty and you'll help get this bug fixed faster.

Confirming this bug. Running Gentoo (Linux 3.8.0) and wine-1.5.24, but I've
tried at least 5 different wine versions with the same result.

Only bug making the game playable is this mouse jitter bug, really hope it can
get fixed asap.

Correction from my last post, I meant to say the only bug making the game
unplayable* is this bug.

The bug still exists with wine 1.6 and the current game version, the beta
workarounds (windowed in emulated desktop) still haven't returned to work.

Confirming that this bug is still present in Wine 1.7 (I'm running 1.7.3 on
Funtoo Linux 3.11.6).

Confirming that this bug is still mostly present in Wine 1.7.18 on Arch 64-bit,
with a 32-bit wineprefix.
By mostly present I mean that the mouse is not "one step behind", there is no
lag.

However, it does still stutter. It seems like the game buffers all mouse input
and applies it once every 50-100 ms when playing as a human or a tank driver.
Mouse works perfectly in menus, tank gunner seats, and aerial vehicles. MAX
suits not tested.
If it weren't for this bug, the game would be almost perfectly playable.

I've investigated into this issue. On Windows every relative mouse movement is
compared against the mouse threshold, more information here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee500883.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa227574%28v=vs.60%29.aspx

It looks like windows sends two / four mouse movements events, as soon as the
threshold limits are exceeded. On wine there's only one event, with much larger
values, resulting in the jumping.
I'm trying to patch user32 asap and provide a patch.

Oh, great to see someone working on fixing this. Really looking forwards to a
patch if you figure it out!

Keep up the good work!

There're two input-modes in PS2, the default method is WM_MOUSEMOVE and
DirectInput and the second method, that can be activated by "Use Raw Mouse
Input" ,is WM_INPUT and GetRawInputData.

However on WINE it makes no difference, as both methods have exactly the same
data source. dinput.dll on WINE uses a mouse hook to emulated relative mouse
movement. It should use WM_INPUT as Windows does, more information here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ee418864%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

WM_INPUT and WM_MOUSEMOVE is generated by the wineserver from winex11.drv
XEvents.
The relative mouse-movement for WM_INPUT is emulated, too. This is why windows
dinput.dll might not fix this problem.

In fact WM_INPUT should deliver "raw" HID data that has nothing to do with
cursor coordinates, as it's just for relative movment.

I've split the WM_INPUT messages into lots of smaller ones, but that doesn't
seem to fix the problem.

Created attachment 49978
  --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=49978
hack to use Xinput2 data only for relative mouse movement

This patch fixes the mouse jittering in Planetside 2. However you have to use
Xinput2 ! XInput2 is disabled in virtual desktop mode! It is enabled whenever a
fullscreen window requests exclusive mouse access. Click once to enable mouse
movements,
This patch might break other apps !

Brief problem description:
* XInput2 is only enable under special circumstandes.
* XInput isn't very accurate (It notices sub-pixel mouse movement, but reports
only pixel coordinates)
* Even with XInput2 enabled it might drop events because they are from a
different "serial"
* XInput and XInput2 events are both sent to the same low level message
function which expects pixel coordinates but XInput2 reports relative sub pixel
movement

* Planetside2 expectes "unproccessed" sub pixel coordinates like the ones
reported from XInput2
