How do I properly use gamescope (lemmy.zip)

I am trying to use gamescope and mangohud at same time so I ran gamescope -e -W 2560 -H 1440 -r 144 --mangoapp %command% (to run at 1440p at 144fps I think) as the launch option on steam but when I load into the game aiming goes crazy like 100x sensitivity but cursor movement (like in setting etc is normal). Is the command wrong I also hit win+f to make full screen. Is this the right way to use gamescope?

Ok you lost me. I don't want to downscale or do any form of upscaling. I want to still render the game at 1440 p full screen. When I left those arguments blank it rendered the game screen at something small not sure what. My desktop screen resolution is 144. I might be misunderstanding.

Set your desktop resolution to whatever you're setting gamescope to, then see if it works properly. Turn off DLSS as well.

Edit: look here to see if you find anything useful: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope/issues/1145

Yes desktop resolution is the same resolution. If I'm understanding the github link it seems to be game specific and fixed for that game now (overwatch) I did not try with another game I was playing hunt showdown witch needs the bleeding edge of proton right now so maybe gamescope does not work? Sorry if I sound stupid not entirely sure thanks for the help though I will try another game today.
