Guild Wars 2

I have a problem while playing GW2 over remote desktop.
(I am doing this as I have a laptop that is too old to play GW2 running the remote desktop as the monitor of my main gaming PC has gone “bang!”)

The game play fine, if a little slowly. I mainly have no issue with the game except for the issue of mouse look.

I am unable to use mouselook as as soon as I do, either I look 100% up or 100% down. Any movement of the mouse to change the mouselook orientation merely rotates the view around the vertical axis.

I have tried to change the mouse controls and sensivity, but this has had no effect.

I should add that I did not see this issue when using the monitor connected directly.

I also do not see this issue playing GW1 on the laptop.

Any one else see this problem?

So have continued to try to fiddle about with settings, but no results.

Can anyone else try this and say whether or not they see the same issue.

At least then I’ll know I’m not going mad

Remote desktop isn’t designed to use the mouse in a 3D axis; there is no solution that I am aware of.

I would very strongly recommend buying a new monitor. That will save you the trouble of asking difficult questions to which I don’t have an answer.

I work with remote desktop on a daily basis. Your problem can’t be solved due to inherent lag, even on the fastest connection. Some things just aren’t meant to be.
