M2TW DE Campaign map scroll speed

brokentool

hello all

having some trouble with extremely fast campaign map scroll speed in M2TW DE on Steam.

in battles, scroll speed is fine, can be adjusted by the slider in the main menu. but on the campaign map the scroll speed is way too fast and can not be adjusted in-game

read up on this issue and it seems I have to cap my FPS at 60, to get normal scrolling speed. did that in my nVIDIA control panel, but can't get it to work. also V-Sync is off in-game, and on in the nVIDIA settings. tried switching on and off the G-Sync as well.

I think I tried the possible combinations with these settings and the framerate keeps showing as 143-44, although capped at 60 in the nVIDIA settings

please advise, if you can


edit: solved with MSI Afterburner / Rivatuner

I usually work around it by using the numerical keypad to scroll, doing it with the mouse is difficult to control. For longer distances I simply click on the spot in the small radar map.

I am intrigued by the 'slider' for battle map scrolling, never noticed that. Where in the main menu would I find that?

@FritzvomWald in the main menu, options --> game settings. the sliders are: rotation speed and movement speed

thanks for the workaround suggestion, however I hope there is some combination of settings in the nVIDIA control panel and/or in-game, which can cap the FPS to 60

Beats me why I never noticed those settings, but yes, they are only for battle.

Capping the FPS will require a third party application, it certainly can't be done in game. Nvidia GeExperience has a recommended setting based on the CFG file of the game but that obviously doesn't include FPS capping. Vsync activated does seem to slow scrolling but in my experience it's negligible.

well, I solved it using a third party software

installed MSI Afterburner, which comes with RIvatuner. The latter, when started, has a simple field for FPS global limit, which works. now I can play M2TW DE with normal campaign map speed

Rare reports indicate that MSI Afterburner may impact the game's stability - do keep that in mind.
