Arma 3 Mouse Cursor Alignment Problem

[potatoman1000]

So my Arma 3 mouse is not aligning with where my mouse actually is. Usully tabbing out of game fixes it but now it doesn't. Also, when I start it up in 720p I can only see a quarter of the screen. I have to go to the Arma3.cfg and manually change the resolution to 1080p. When I start it again it down scales to 720p again but this time it fits in the screen and this is when the mouse alignment issue begins. I'm pretty sure it is a resolution problem and I need help fixing it.

Thanks for any help.

If you have a NVIDIA video card, make sure in the NVIDIA Control Panel it isn't set to force a certain resolution, and it's set to allow the program to choose.

I have a radeon 7850 and i5 4690k

I don't know what the program is called, but I'm fairly certain there should be something similar to the NVIDIA control panel. I think it might be called "AMD Catalyst"

no there is nothing forcing a resolution

Hi I fixed this problem by changing the text size to 100% from 150%. to do this you need to go control panel >appearence and personalisation > display. then select smaller or 100%.

yeah.... well i already tried everything changing every option resetting auto decting reinstalling all that creamy stuff. im currently in contact with the bohemia interactive support and guess what? they cannt do jack shit either. hope they will find the reason for this problem i mean it has to work because it already did a year ago. the only thing i can think of is that arma3 just had a patch which made it unplayable with my setup which would suck hairy balls

SOLUTION: in Windows 7 (Windows 10 is probably similar) go to your Arma 3 folder/directory and right click on arma3.exe and go to properties.

Go to "Compatibility" tab.

Click on "Change Settings for all users".
Then check "Disable desktop composition", check "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings", and check "Run this program as an administrator".

Click OK.

I also did this for "arma3_x64.exe" and "arma3battleye.exe" and "arma3server.exe"

Problem SOLVED.
