*Unreal Tournament III*Thread :o) Game Pics & Performance.

sorry I have a MX310 actually, not a mx318...and yes it's 800dpi

Dont you find when you move the mosue quickly you dont move because you move the mouse too quick? I find it really hard to turn around and in UT3 its either not sensitive enough ot too sensitive.
 
Its wireless could that be it? I mean even on the desktop if I move it really fast to the side the cursor just stops moving.

What mouse do you have? The mouse benchmark here explains why that is in a bit more detail. I only game with Microsoft IE3.0 400DPI and that's plenty enough for me.

Played UT3 a bit today and so far I like it, but I'm really not used to the double key dodge, cuz of the way I tap strafe keys it often pushes me over the edge with unintended dodge. There is no option to turn it off as well.
 
There always was in the older UTs, it might be hidden somewhere.
If not it will almost certainly be in 1 of the ini files :)

You will get used to it. I did that quite often at first playing the demo but now I don't....and the dodge is very handy for...well....dodging.

You don't need a mouse that moves million miles per cm just enough to do a 360 pretty easily, depends on your preference. Proper mouse and mat makes it easier to aim the mouse to a specific point though.

These young whippersnappers today dont know theyre born! Old Skool ball mice that need cleaning every 5 minutes.....thats what we need! You can keep your fancy optical laser micewhathaveyou!

/shakes fist
 
Do people still use ball mice? Which would I be better using? My optical wireless mouse or my 'old skool' wired ball mouse?

I've been playing it a few hours and its quite hard for me, some people just move so quick and dodge behind you its something I cant do I dont get how they do it so quick and sometimes they just skipping round you like one minute you see em one minute you dont, I think I may need a new mouse :\.

I was playing you on a dm server on friday and I did notice you didn't seem to move around as much as most people. I killed you a few times and mostly I could tell it was you before I killed you because of the way you were moving (or maybe I just recognised your character after the frist couple of times, probably both :p). The key thing is keep holding down at least one direction unless you think you're safe / really need to take a shot that needs you to be still.

The mouse issues don't sound very useful though, I used to have all sorts of issues with an optical mouse directly on the desk. Some mice are pretty tetchy about it. I'm currently using a hardback book though and it's allright (but a bit high :s)
 
So I could modifiy the settings in the ini files so that when I press the left key and right key I can move right to left extra quick?

Any idea what things to edit for that?

Off hand i can't remember what they are from the old versions of the game but can have a hunt around to see whats about. Hopefully find something that tells me where this might be located now.

I try to move around as much as possible but I feel I'm still moving around slower than everyone else and also it seems like there is problems with my connection and sometimes they just running circles around me and it looks like they must be moving like there a** is on fire and I cant even keep my eye on them. When I move around I try to constantly move left to right and dodge a lot but people still get me.

I'm ordering a Razer Krait shortly and hoping that will be a good deal better than my wireless 800dpi a4tech mouse.

I havent a clue were to start looking in all the files.
 
im having problems creating a server ive enabled the ports in my router and tried dmz but no luck and tried this beta 1.01 patch, hope they sort it soon. other than that im absolutely loving it!
 
I take first sometimes but seem to have a million deaths :( I have noticed that a lot of people just camp the armor as well...maybe that's the reason.

When I find I am actually doing quite good and coming 5th its the same I always get lots of death, it does not bother me untill people start saying about the amount of deaths you have etc..
 
Well I just swapped in my q6600. UT3 would max both cores 100% on my e6600.

....and it looks a bit different with the quad...not noticed any improvement though as I am GPU limited with my x1900 :(
