![]() ![]() However in newer versions of Windows, this function now enables the EPP setting. Previously, some older games would call a Windows function that would disable mouse acceleration automatically. When "Enhance Pointer Precision" is disabled, mouse acceleration in Windows (and hopefully your game) is also disabled. Quote from: suntorytime 304570 there isn't much you can do to 'optimize' a mouse. And generally a high lift off distance is bad. your computer specs won't affect the performance of your mouse at all unless you're on some 486 trying to run 1000hz polling. Some older games which use direct input such as counter strike and quake should not have these problems. If you play newer games you will have more issues trying to work out how to turn off funky console like acceleration and using sensitivity sliders, but these issues are game dependent. I'm not sure what sensor the g500 uses so you might want to do some googling there. Also some sensors react badly to certain mouse mats (high lift off, cursor move when lifting etc). There are a few sensors that inherently have negative or positive acceleration, depending on DPI. change DPI of mouse to whatever you're normally accustomed with, i use 800 DPI only. If you are beyond OCD you can either install CPL mousefix if you are using XP or MarkC mouse fix if you're on Win7.ĥ. (to change polling rates etc, generally the new 'gaming' mice use 500Hz and I find this more than adequate)Ĥ. plug mouse in and not install any crap drivers unless you really need to. My steps in short (with the most important steps in bold):ġ. There isn't much you can do to 'optimize' a mouse. Sorry for the wall of text but I am really enjoying typing today! :biggrin: I don't want to spread misinformation about the Deathadder or anything really. If I am wrong in this then please let me know. So all in all, I guess that I am asking how do I make my sensor as "perfect" as possible? I am not saying I want it like the Deathadder sensor, I was just using that as an example to show that I did like it overall (except for a few small things that only apply to me or a very small consumer base) because I have heard that its censor is as near-perfect as they come. I would have done this if I had to but the G500 was so much more comfortable that I just could not use the Deathadder at all. Since it was in the middle instead of the top-middle of the mouse it felt weird and I would have to retrain muscle memory to get used to it. The censor placement was a little hard for me to get used to since the only mouse I have ever really used for gaming is the G500. It was not comfortable for me and made my hand cramp up. Overall I really liked the censor, but I hated the mouse body. I tried the Deathadder Black and while the sensor was nice, its liftoff was higher than the G500 I am using and the sensor placement being in the center of the mouse was a little weird feeling to me. Is there anything else that I need to do to make the sensor "perfect?" I am not going to get a new mouse just for a better sensor so please don't suggest that. If you need to know what it is just say so, I don't want to list everything that does not directly affect the speed of the computer or overclock in some way. Lastly, I have a sound card if you need to know that. I have a Corsair HX580W power supply if that matters at all, although I don't think it does. 2.0 motherboard, EVGA GTX 580, Crucial C300 128GB for OS and games with 1TB Samsung HDD for movies, music etc. The computer I use it on is using Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, Intel i7 9MHz 6-8-6-24 RAM, Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R rev. I can set it on 2 separate towers (for stability) of pennies that are one penny high and it still works, but when I add a second penny to each tower the sensor is too high off the pad and no longer tracks. The windows settings are 6/11 and I have disabled "Enhance Pointer Precision" to stop the OS acceleration as much as I know how to do. The sensitivity is in the middle and acceleration is set to zero (all the way to the left) even though I told the program to use the settings from windows. So is there a mouse sensor guru out there that can help me out with this? I have installed the latest setpoint and the settings are set to: ![]()
