===Mouse lag/acceleration===
 +
Some users report that the mouse feels laggy and looking around feels unnatural. Some have attributed this to an implementation of mouse acceleration, however Eidos developer Jimo [http://forums.eidosgames.com/showpost.php?p=1656922&postcount=48 has stated] that there is "no mouse smoothing applied in DXHR".

 +
{{ii}}The problem may simply be input lag which is usually related to V-Sync. Disabling V-Sync seems to fix input lag for most users.
 +
 
 +
{{Fixbox|1=
 +
{{Fixbox/fix|Changing free look speed in registry}}
 +
Other users, under the impression that the game implemented mouse smoothing, seem to have found a registry setting that modifies mouse behavior and have had some success with editing it to fix mouse lag. Use [http://www.gamespot.com/deus-ex-human-revolution/forum/mouse-acceleration-fix-turn-it-off-60125192/ these steps] (listed below) to edit this specific registry setting (Be sure to back up your registry before making any changes):
 +
 
 +
# Navigate to <code>{{p|hkcu}}\Software\Eidos\Deus Ex: HRDC</code>
 +
# Change the value of g_debugFreeLookSpeedScalingRatio_Pitch from 6e 00 00 00 to 00 00 00 00
 +
# Change the value of g_debugFreeLookSpeedScalingRatio_Yaw from 86 00 00 00 to 00 00 00 00

# Re-adjust your mouse speed in game, no acceleration

===Camera stuttering (stuttering while moving and looking around at the same time)===
 +
{{Fixbox|1=
 +
{{Fixbox/fix|Fixing camera stuttering}}
 +
There are multiple solutions that people have reported work:
 +
 
 +
* Change the ingame setting "fullscreen" to "no". If you hit {{key|Alt|Enter}} the game will go back to fullscreen, but the stuttering should be gone.
 +
* If this doesn't fix stuttering in fullscreen but does fix it in windowed mode for Windows 7 users, right-click 'dxhr.exe' and open up the Properties window, then navigate to the Compatibility tab and check 'disable visual themes' and 'disable desktop composition.' This could possibly fix stuttering in fullscreen.
 +
* Stuttering can also be reduced by turning off triple buffering in the game menu.
 +
* If you're playing in DX9 mode, you may try using [http://www.enbdev.com/download_patch_deusexhr.htm Boris Vorontsov's ENBSeries SPEED IMPLANT].
 +
* Reinstall the redists located in <code>redist</code> in the installation folder, then restart your computer
 +
* The last possible solution would be to use DX11 mode (VSync enabled) and then go in to the registry.
