Great guide, i joined forums just to say thx for it

OmegaNemesis28

well..... thank you

this deserves a plus rep and if I knew the Antigen he would get one too.

I actually tried most of the things mentioned above and I feel better. I played about 10 minutes of CSS and I'm getting alot more kills then what I did half an hour ago.

It's a very in-depth and thorough guide. Kudos for the amount of work to get it compiled, however it only threw off my game.

I tried adjusting my mouse using the info you provided and couldn't get it to where I really liked it and it took me a number of hours resetting and readjusting my settings as well as a number of hours playtesting my in-game settings for TF2 before I got back to where I was.

Guess I was already optimized for the game I play, but it sure was an adventure.

Hello all,

I would need some assistance with my sensitivity problems. I used to have a Logitech Pilot 400dpi mouse, I used it with my 17" CRT at 1024x768 resolution. Everything was perfect back then. Then I got 19" LCD (1280x1024 native res), and a Logitech G3 mouse.

How can I adjust my DPI to match it the 1024x768 and 400dpi times? I calculated something like this:

X-Axis:
1280 / 1024 = 1.25
1.25 x 400 = 500

Y-Axis:
1024 / 768 = 1.33333333333333333333
1.333... x 400 = 533.333...

Sure Y-axis would be a little slower because of the 5:4 screen, but whatcha do, it's only 50dpi increments with logitech...

But am I doing something wrong here, or is this 500dpi setting as near as I can get? Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks.

This information is superb, but also I find it extremely irritating as I cannot do several of the things you suggest.

I have the Logitech G9

Max DPI 3200
Max Polling Rate 1000Hz

Now, to adjust any of these things you use the software, but the software does not need to be loaded as the mouse has onboard memory to basically store your settings for plug and play functionality, I could take this to any PC and have whatever settings I set inthe drivers and saved to the mouse.

Here is the problem, u advise to use MAX DPI - 3200.

If I set windows mouse properties to default 6 as you state, in game sensitivity to the lowest, 1, its far far too sensitive in game, I have to use 2000 DPI to use these settings, and I switch to 600 DPI for desktop use, or my cursor just flys all over the place on 2000 DPI and windows sensitivity of 6.

in the drivers for the mouse, I have it set in the middle, 5, both this AND windows seem to have an effect on the mouse, I do not understand any of it.

there is also something in the G9 drivers that says this.

"Use OS native drivers for pointer speed and acceleration"

I can put a tick by this, or untick it, seems to do nothing either way.

m_pitch will not change form 0.022

m_yaw will change to whatever I want, so for a while now I have been using m_yaw 0.0165 and without knowing it m_pitch had stayed at 0.022 (no wonder I have had inconsistent aiming)

this is for CS 1.6 by the way.

so overall I am really unsure of, anything! despite the phenominal detail you have gone into, it is just not specific enough to help me with regards to my mouse and setup etc.

very frustrating not being able to put to use such excellent work.

Burnhard

LOL and with regards to this, HOW THE HELL!

on 2000 DPI my in game sense is OK, on my desktop my cursor flys all over the place, I have to use 600DPI on my desktop.

As for "overclocking" your usbport.sys for your mouse in vista, that section has been in my guide (in my sig) for some time.... I just now ran across this, and I must say well done~ REP+

Probably the person you are referring to didn't install the mouse drivers? I noticed the same thing before installing Logitech SetPoint and all the mouse drivers.
