If that creates a stretched look you dislike, use the launch option -stretchaspect to force fullscreen with black bars. | | Mouse feels "floaty" or inconsistent | Mouse acceleration or smoothing is enabled in macOS or the game. | Use the three -noforcem* launch options and disable "Enhance Pointer Precision" in Windows mouse settings if using virtualization. | | Cannot open the console ( ~ key) | The default tilde key mapping isn't passed through correctly. | Manually bind the console to another key (like "O") by editing your userconfig.cfg file.
