Mouse questions; sensitivety, resolution, 1:1, etc...

[legacy-Mohlraax]

The restriction in menus are "1.00", and if you enter something lower... it just pops back up to "1.00"!

I know the regular mousesensitivity won't go under 0.25, I wouldn't be surprised if the menu sensitivity has a similar restriction. Never tried changing it myself though.

If you did and it's already on 0.25, you could try to edit your INI file to lower it further.

You don't have to do that. You can simply select the sens box. Instead of using the arrows to select, simply type in a number. I tweak mine to hundredths this way.

I never tried less that 0.25 but I'm assuming you can do it this way. Sorry if I'm wrong...

Thanks, I wasn't sure if it would interfere with the diamondback drivers' mouse accel control.

[legacy-AmonRe]

CPL has nothing to do with your diamondback drivers...it simply abolishes any "Windows" mouse accel

Baaah... got a mirror for that mouse fix?! I tryed to register, but I'm not getting a confirmation mail...

Well... in the menue it wont let me go under 1.00...

Aight.. I'll check the .ini!

[legacy-Lethargy]

Will that CPL fix work with the razer diamondback drivers?

I think 0.25 fits me perfectly tho, but I whould like to lower the menu sens a little... is that possible through commands aswell? :weird:

Aaaaah... I tryed a million commands... no one worked!

I think SetPoint is MX518-only, and I think that while not actually necessary, it's a great deal better than Mouseware.

If you want a lower sensitivity, you can use the setsensitivity command, via the console. It will still SHOW 0.25 in the menus, though, even if it's not. Like I said, I use a sensitivity of 0.08.

Thanks alot!

I sat all to max in mouseware now... and the mouse cursor in windows is realy on steroids!

However, I put the ingame speed to 0.25 (wont let me put it lower), and it felt akward at first, but ****, didnt take much time to get used to it! And when I did... I MUST admit, even tho I'm a little anti pro-with-your-fancy-mouse-tweaks... that it DID improve my accuracy... ALOT! :up:

Besides, I have taken the big step, and kicked out the old WASD, and traded it with the new and improved ESDF... and added singel weapon binds to all my weapons!

The game feels... so much smoother now... :up:


... one last thing! Is the new "mouseware" thing for the MX518 useable with the old MX510? And is it realy nessesary? :weird:

[legacy-bemymonkey]

Heheh, that's going to be my next purchase. I'm using an mx510 right now... love that thing

Not that I know of - I just got used to it being really fast in windows. However, if you have a MX518 and don't need to bind ALL of it's buttons, you can keep the two set to +/-400dpi for on-the-fly dpi changes.

Actually, I'm pretty sure speed in Mouseware alters the dpi of the mouse. Basically, that means that - while changing speed in Mouseware does inadvertantly alter sensitivity - changing sensitivity in UT2004 would retain the current dpi. Thus, if you want a low sensitivity, it's more precise to have high Mouseware speed + low ingame sens, as opposed to low Mouseware speed + high ingame sens.

With my MX518, I have it set to full on 1600dpi + max SetPoint speed (SetPoint is the new driver software for the MX518; Logitech seems to be leaving Mouseware behind), but my ingame sensitivity is 0.08. With the MX510, it was 0.20.
