Mouse Q

glsauron · 2003-04-24, 06:50 PM

Anybody else think the mouse controls are a little funny? First time I load up PS my mouse starts acting all crazy. Not going a constant speed, seeming to lag, etc. Win key gets me back to desktop and its fine. This supposed to be that way, just the server select screen, or what? Happen to anybody else?

BTW- waiting from Monday to Thurs to play PS for the fist time (stupid DUN+Big Patches) and having the servers down for 2 hours = &*%^*&%^*^&*^

well for me, the mouse does seem laggy and not so smooth. Im getting used to it though, so im not complaining

i think mine is just because of my crappy video card, so once i upgrade it should be smoother.

I also have theese mouse problems. But, like Khronos, it is probably my graphics card (my graphics card is so old it is STEAM POWERED!!). I would upgrade the card, but I am about to get a brand new computer, no need to upgrade a sinking ship

go to your options and turn mouse smoothing off or something like that. I had to do it at first because it was driving me crazy

I've heard a lot of people mention they've had to adjust their mouse sensitivity and speed before playing. Not sure what the best settings are.

Using a MX500 so its not *that* bug

Mouse sensativity is down on windows, I'll turn off mouse smoothing soon as I can log into the "log-in" server, as I've only been to that screen once (had this problem) and all the servers were down at the time...

I too was getting very annoyed at the "mouse lag" that was always present when manipulating inventory or HUD... I found a thread on the OF somewhere about how to remove it, and it worked great for me.

It involves using RivaTuner to change an option in Vsync to "Always off" and setting "Prerender limit" down to 1 from 3. I know it sounds unrelated, but it works for myself and others.

Worth a try, anyway.
