Is anyone else experiencing their mouse disappearing in the enhanced version?

Specifically, when I move my mouse over to the right or bottom of the screen, it will disappear -- or rather, it goes off into a part of the screen that I can't see.

I'm not sure if my settings are not set correctly, but this problem happened at various screen resolutions, and windowed/full screen.

The classic version works perfectly fine, with the mouse being locked within the correct borders.

I am experiencing this issue as well. Perhaps its a bug? Its my only qualm in this otherwise great release.

I have the same problem :/

Sounds like they need to use the ClipCursor() function to limit the range of the cursor.

On an unrelated note, the game window seems to always be on top right now, which makes the windowed mode less useful. I'd love for both of these issues to be fixed: for the cursor to be locked to the window while it has focus, and for other windows to be able to go on top of the game (so I can alt-tab between them).

Having the same issue, hope they fix it soon.

Seeing the same thing, Win 10.

Edit: Interestingly enough, using alt-tab to switch to another window and then switching back to War II fixed the issue. Might be a problem with initialization timing?

Same here, Windows 10 v1803

It's a scaling issue tied to the GPU. Here's the solution to fix it.

What about AMD?

conviction89: What about AMD?
I am not tech savvy of AMD I never was into those products. But I would assume in ATI Panel it would be similar to Nvdia using their Catalyst software.

I have the GPU driver installed without the panel. I'd like to keep it that way. However, this is a workaround, not a solution. For that price we should expect a proper solution from the developers.

Scaling, in general, is good any game and driver and control panel are two different things. Also, not to shame you on but for $9 you have huge expectation from a game that was abandoned. Any support would make you go through those step, even modern studios.

That's basically what I have said.

However, I don't think that I am expecting too much. Regardless, I will install the ATI control software and check if it works.
Thank you for the tip.

Setting the resolution to 640x480 with any of the fullscreen options fix the problem for now.

This is caused by setting the GoG video settings to anything other than "Default". War2 doesnt have any resolution other than 640x480. So when GoG tries to set the screen size, it sets it to large and the mouse ends up off the screen where you cant see it. It also causes in-game scrolling to not function without OBSCENE amounts of mouse scrolling. The fix is to simply change all the video settings in the launcher back to "Default".
