Sorry for not updating recently! I'm having a lot of trouble over this wonderful winter weekend with life stuffs. Car blew out a tire + many more awesome things! I shall compile, thank, and post a more awesome updated post probably after this horrid weekend once things calm down. There's a lot of good info in this thread so keep it up guys! Sorry for the negligence!

THis works for me too, but it is annoying. Also, for me, I have the same object recognition problem sometimes in combat. It doesnt recognize enemies (so I cant aim powers at them). Pressing esc and going back does not fix this.

Yes, I used to have that problem severely, and I could hardly ever use charge.  Try going to different resolutions and windowed mode, updating your drivers, and especially trying the tweaks in this thread.  The first two things improve the spacebar issue, but I got a huge spacebar and combat improvement after tweaking mouse settings as laid out in this thread, lowering resolution all the way to 640x480 and turning off vsync.

The downside is you're playing at 640x480.  But FPS and combat dramatically improve.

Editing coalesced.ini with notepad++ still crashes the game for me. Can anyone help me get it working?

There is a better way than directly editing coalesced.ini.  Use gamersettings.ini from the Bioware folder in Documents

See this thread for details

Has anyone experienced your character and squad walking in the rafters????......This has happened to me a few times in the Slums on Omega and there is nothing I can do when this happens except restart the game from a save....

I have had no other problems except my game is beginning to freeze and crash while in combat.....It happens intermitantly and is quite annoying especially when your nearing the end of a boss fight and it crashes...

I have hadmy Shepard getting stuck on some furnitures in firefight and have had toreload from previous save.
All in all this game is good, but as a PC player you don't get the feeling that the BioWare guys are aware that people actually play the game on PC as well--- No weapon quick keys, the dialouge option being crap, no mouse nor advanced graphics tweak in the game. Too sad.

Should we add anti-aliasing instructions? It makes a huge visual difference. It's the same as ME1 for both Nvidia (nhancer) and Radeon (Catalyst Control Center AI and AA settings, rename binaries to UT3.exe).

[Azraelss]

yes, some Anti aliasing instructions would be great, I have spent an hour googling for solutions!

After the IFF mission, the scene where EDI tells me that the ship needs to do scans before it is ready, pops up before i land at any planet. Then the screen goes black. I press enter and then the side panel shows up with the planets info and the dock button but nothing else. This time however when i went to the galaxy map it played straight away before i choose a planet and now i cant do anything because when i press enter it doesn't do anything



Has anyone else had this problem? does anyone know how to fix it?

[Kru12000]

Does the reticle move too slowly for anybody else when orbiting planets to do scans?

I had to edit the "SFXGame.SFXGameModeOrbital" section in the Coalesced.ini file to speed up the mouse some.
Using Notepad++ search for and change:
ScanReticleMoveSpeed=0.12
PlanetRotationSpeed=0.02

in my case I tuned it to:
ReticleMoveSpeed=0.40
ScanReticleMoveSpeed=0.15

You can also change the planet rotation speed in there too. I tried putting these changes in GamerSettings.ini, but they didn't work there unfortunately.

Ooh, that sounds handy, thanks. Scanning becomes slower the bigger the planet.

Do you suppose there's something similar in coalesced.ini for the bypass minigame? I've managed to do it up til now, but my mouse is awfully slow there too (and there you actually have to be quick, etc.).

Yeah, try setting bUseMouseDampening=False. When it's set to true the game will slow down the cursor when it's moved really fast... lol.

I have uncompareably annoyable problem with the mouse. In the menu it's works fine. but in actual game it does nothing at all. the buttons are working but it's not rotate the camera nowhere and i can't choose an option in dialogues only the first one.

I have exactly the same problem as this guy, and since I didn't find any answer (and believe me I spent hours searching the net), do you think you could look into this? Any suggestion would be welcomed greatly.

[wolfen420]

Nice thread. Thanks OP

[qae]

To be more precise this is my problem :

The game works fine except that the camera won't move at all. My mouse works in every other ways (shooting, aiming, doing stuff in the menu), but it won't move the camera. Won't let me chose dialogues option either.
Of course I just started the game and obviously I cannot pass the very first mission.

Since you just solved some mouse issues (and I may actually use your tips once I get it to work), could you guess what my problem could be?


I have a DualCore 6850 with 2Go Ram, Geforce 8800 GTS, Windows 7 32bit premium, and I use a Logitech MX Revolution as my mouse.
I use dual screen for my computer (may be related.. who knows)
I have the last Nvidia driver, DirectX11 (I did also install DirectX9c just to be sure)
I run MassEffect2.exe as administrator.

I'm taking any guesses at this point.. shoot.

[Kru12000]

qae, I'd try running the game in windowed mode to see if that helps.
Mass Effect 2 Launcher > Configure > Video > Windowed=Windowed

Also be sure to save settings before closing the utility.
Mass Effect 2 (on the menu bar) > Save Settings

Nope, doesn't change anything.

I still can move forward and backward, strafe, interact with the environment, fire, aim, but I can't move the camera, it's like it's stuck on the initial position.

Of course that means that I also can't turn as long as I have my weapon out (I can turn around if I holster it but the camera won't follow)

[Kru12000]

I'm stumped.

Changing the sensitivity did not work? By default it's MouseSensitivity=1.0, try 6.0

Can you try running your desktop using a single monitor when playing the game?



If nothing works then at this point it's too much trouble to hack the .ini and I'd use a usb mouse till a patch is released.

[qae]

Yeah I tried to change the sensivity in the Coalesced.ini, I also forced my desktop on one screen.. Nothing works.



I'm not even sure it's mouse related, since the mouse works well for everything beside moving the camera.. but well I will probably try to get a cheap usb mouse tomorrow to test it..

I already tested with my other wireless mouse (which is also a Logitech) and it didn't change anything.

Now... Is there a way to speed up the scanner cursor speed? I understand the thought behind it, but it's just too slow. It makes me not want to scan.

You will get a research upgrade for your ship that increases scanning.  It will dramatically increase the mouse speed during the scanning process.  Not sure if there are more than one, but I found it much nicer once I researched that upgrade.  

[lessthan3]

Has anyone figured out how to tweak the shotgun cone of fire? I'd like to use it but it's basically worthless at ranges farther than point blank at the moment.

[qae]

So I bought a cheap usb mouse, and a new graphic card (Radeon 5770) today, and the problem is still here. Reinstalled the game too.

The game does load a bit faster (obviously) but the camera is still not moving..



If you guys have any other ideas.. I'm taking anything.

[CalindorZ]

I have a moved "My Documents" in my windows install, and seem to remember having issues with this with the first Mass Effect.



First career will save games fine. But it saves them in the root of K:\\Bioware\\Mass Effect 2\\Save.



Selecting Load Game from the menu turns up a blank list - but selecting Save Game will show me all my save games.



Starting a second career - the game will not save a game. Or, if it does, I can't find them. Have checked in C:\\Users\\<username>, etc.



Any ideas, or fixes?

[Cormai]

here's hoping you guys could help me. the only thing that's annoying me is the fact that whenever i force AA (8xMSAA), or any AA setting really, my sounds just die... is there a way to fix this?



thanks in advance guys.



btw, using the built-in soundcard from my mobo (GA-EX58-Extreme).

[dukem73]

would like to add this, which seems to tested by a variety of victims of the 1 minute+ load times syndrome

Decreasing Load Times Fix for Dual Core Processors?

To fix it, just minimize the game while its running, go to Task Manager. Right click masseffect2.exe and say "set affinity". Uncheck the second CPU core, then click OK. Now go back to "Set Affinity" again and re-enable the core you just disabled. Click OK. When you maximize the game again, your load times should be drastically reduced

[mejobloggs]

Why is it when I change certain options in Coalesced.ini the game can no longer start



e.g MaxShadowResolution to 1024... game doesn't start



but changing MouseSensitivity is fine



Using Notepad++
