Use SpecialK

yeah, after moving out the way multiple times it eventually stops flopping to the center of the screen.

your joke is funny though.

It's not a joke tho? Special K has a setting to turn the cursor off when it detects a controller.

as soon as 3rd party anything gets involved, it's a easy no. it eventually stays out of way once you move it a few times.

Oof you got some trust issues.

i was hoping there was a .txt fix like a (cursor enabled true) type fix, not a 3rd party. i rather just move it out of the way 3'sh times and it's gone.

when you have to start implementing a 3rd party software to a game. is when it's already gone too far. the cursor slapping in center of screen is annoying. but once it's out of the way. it'll stay usually out of the way.

you said special k removes mouse cursor when a controller is plugged in, i keep my controller in so having to unplug/ replug. sounds annoying alone.

rather just move cursor. a lot more convenient.

You make a ton of assumptions without even trying the software. These Nier games were made and left in the dust by Squenix, they require "3rd party" applications in order to work correctly. If you can't set up a simple .dll file, then you probably shouldn't be PC gaming.

nier automata has 0 issues, and runs flawlessly 4k, and i even use RSR to upscale replicant from 1440p to 4k making the graphics just as good as they are on 4k, while improving the performance by over 20%

it's not the fact of learning/ knowing how to set up a file in game. it's the fact of having to do it in the first place. as stated before, once you have to implement a 3rd party software to a game, it's a no. if i had to do that for replicant. i'd simply uninstall and never play it again.

and majority of console ports are left in the dust with 0 ongoing support for the game, what are you trying to teach me something i didn't know? because only thing i learned was a software named after a cereal brand.

Both this and Automata have issues on the PC port. There's tons of pacing issues and stuttering, especially in Automata, because of how the game uses CPU cycles, along with a completely broken fps limit in both Automata and Replicant. Just because it "runs flawlessly" to you doesn't mean it does to everyone else. Special K fixes these issues and allows you to get rid of the "60"fps lock (or the unstable 58-59fps lock in Replicant), along with other nice features like a better optimized Global Illumination setting in Automata, or the ability to get rid of the annoying cursor that shows up every time you alt-tab in Replicant.

The fact of "having" to do it in the first place is completely the fault of Square Enix and their inability to care about the properties they own. It's like Bethesda, they rely on the community to fix their broken games.

You asked for a fix, and I gave you one. An extremely simple fix with very little effort. You're just being stubborn for absolutely no reason.

Also, RSR (Radeon Super Resolution, an AMD technology) requires using a 3rd party software. Pretty hypocritical. It also looks worse than Native 4K.

how is a graphics driver considered 3rd party software, when it's required for a gaming PC. just like Nvidia graphics driver are required, stuttering for me came from world illumination on Automata. simple fix is to put that on low. the graphics are barely even touched. making that setting useless. (like difference from high/low on illuminations wasn't even noticeable to me)
I have a 1ms 60hz 4k screen, so going beyond a 60fps cap is just a waste of resources. (got 4k screen free)
only issue i ever ran into with Nier games is the mouse cursor thing. so stating the nier games Require (yes capitalized) Require 3rd part to run properly is bull. stating 60 fps cap for a non competitive hack and slash game is useless, only games that 60+ fps is even considered better on is competitive FPS games like MW2, WZ2, TF2, Fortnite, OW2.
the biggest thing for fps caps/ and what not for screens is the MS, most 60hz screens are like 3 or 4 ms, so having a 60hz screen with 1ms, is just like having a 120hz 1ms, screen. because the only arguable point of going beyond 60fps is the response time, and having 1ms response time is the best you can get atm. (not many 60hz screens have 1 ms)

and how is modding a game a simple fix. you have to download a sketchy mod software from a .info web page. then install it properly, do this and that. when i can just launch the game press start on a controller, hit continue. move mouse out of the way very easily without having to do anything else.

it's tabbing out the game that resets the mouse cursor to center, or using a recording software like Action! that also would slap it in the center. it was my recording software causing the issue (in original post) meaning the first time i move the cursor without the software up is the only time i need. the eyes can not see beyond 30 fps, and if the rig can play the game at 60 fps, it's playing the game smoothly so going beyond 60 fps is pointless, it's a flex at that point. the 60 fps vs 120 fps comparison videos were all done YEARS ago. with a 1ms screen vs a 4ms screen. if you redo those comparisons. and do not show the differences in fps. the player testing/ trying wouldn't even notice a difference.

also since you want to be low key toxic, achievement hunting/ showcases on steam are rendered useless considering you can use another mans save file and 100% games with 5 minutes of play time. because of that exploit alone achievement showcasing isn't even worth it. there are only few games coded to where you can't use save files on steam. i've seen a guy with over 1,000 games have a 97% completion rate for achievements. and that same guy uses/used save files to get the 100% on most of his games. and the 3% he can't get are games that are coded against using save files (which are actually quite rare)

since you stated i shouldn't be pc gaming, i had to teach you something. did you know there are people who buy save files for 100%'d games? bet you didn't know that. it's for the same reason. achievement completion #cope.

That does not solve the occasional stuttering unfortunately, runs exactly the same for me. If You do don't get those that's great for you though.

Besides that, special k is a pretty established tool, like reshade, etc. Though Automata runs now fine in 4k anyway. So not really needed there anymore (iirc).

You are certainly not helping your point by being a jerk about it. ;-)

Oh god... so you made this post just to troll. My mistake for actually trying to help.

Pray tell how I was being a "jerk" about it? This person assumes the worst out of a software that thousands have used with no issues. They act like using it is a "joke" out of the park, think that eyes "can't see above 30fps", and then go on some weird spiel about achievements which has absolutely nothing to do with the topic. Who is the jerk, again?

i mean look up special k by itself. you'll get kellogs cereal brand. and if i wanted to botch the game by (downgrading it) i can just do that by messing with settings in both game/Radeon software. RSR works for most games, idk why they don't have Fidelity cas in this game but automata has it, but RSR does virtually the same thing. it's just software based instead of engine based.

and you stated (if you cant use a simple .dll file you shouldn't be pc gaming anyways) so i had to go back with the toxicity my guy. if you have a completionist showcase on steam consider you can exploit majority of games and get 100% achievements with a simple save file. that showcase is pointless when people just use save files to get achievement % of game collections anyways. it's not a spiel, it's shots fired back at you for telling me i shouldn't pc game. you want to bring toxicity/salt i'll bring some back.

Once again, I was not toxic. You are stubborn and trolling. Once again bringing up achievements which has nothing to do with the topic. Once again being hypocritical by using 3rd party software when refusing to use another 3rd party software.

Once again, I'm the "toxic" one here...? Yeesh...
