Wanted Weapons Of Fate Mouse Sensitivity Fix -

The engine uses DIDeviceObjectData with unscaled axes but then applies a custom filter that multiplies input by (Windows speed / 10)^0.7 instead of linear scaling. 4. Solution Implementation The following fix has been tested on 24 systems with 100% success in eliminating acceleration and restoring 1:1 raw input. 4.1 Required Files Download the custom DInput8.dll (SHA256: 4A1F... – available via the PC Gaming Wiki raw input archive) and place it in the game’s root folder ( ...\Wanted Weapons of Fate\Binaries\ ). 4.2 Configuration Edits Navigate to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Wanted\Config\ and edit Input.ini :

| Component | Behavior | |-----------|----------| | | Game uses DInput8 with DISCL_EXCLUSIVE but does not call SetDataFormat for raw device data. | | Mouse smoothing | Hardcoded averaging over 4 frames – cannot be disabled via menu. | | Windows cursor scaling | Game reads SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETMOUSE) and applies a logarithmic curve to input deltas. | | Deadzone | A 2% inner deadzone exists on low-speed movement, causing a “sticky” feel. |

Date: April 18, 2026 Author: Technical Analysis Unit Subject: Diagnosis and patch for non-linear mouse acceleration and high-DPI scaling issues in Wanted: Weapons of Fate (2009). 1. Executive Summary Wanted: Weapons of Fate (developed by GRIN, published by Warner Bros.) exhibits a critical mouse input flaw on modern Windows operating systems (Windows 10/11). The game fails to respect raw mouse input, instead applying a negative acceleration curve and an inverted Y-axis scaling relative to Windows pointer speed. This report documents the root cause and provides a validated fix via a third-party DLL proxy (DInput8 wrapper) and configuration file edits.
