How sensitive do you have your mouse.

Have you got mouse acceleration on?



The cursor shouldn't jump regardless. I think the only thing that can cause this effect is either mouse acceleration or monitor's refresh rate being too low to display the fast mouse tracking.

It doesn't jump but it doesn't occupy every space along the path from one side to the other. If I move my mouse across my monitor in 1 second, the screen would have to refresh at 1920fps in order to not "jump".
 
Logitech G1

Sense is set to half in driver/pointer accel turned off.
I use Mouserate to overclock the USB to 500hz.
Sens is always around 4.3 in FPS games with zero accel in game aswell (mainly Quake)

You'll probably find that high sense is actually a lot worse. Low sensitivity = you have more control, as small errors in movement don't mean anything. Massive sense means you've got to be superhuman to correct your aim, because any tiny errors in movement get amplified massively.

Everyone I know that used to play CS 1.6 - and were any good - used stupidly low sensitivity. I'm talking like two full swipes of the mousing area to turn around.

Was going to write pretty much this, but you've saved me the effort.

Low sensitivity for more control. If I need speed, I move my arm faster. :p
 
Mine is set to 2000dpi all the time (G5). I have the sensitivity buttons set to easily lower the sensitivity when parents/gf/friends/elderly relatives use the PC and go "oh dear that's too sensitive for me"
 
Funnily enough, when I had a G5 I got used to the 2000dpi and left it like that for most of the time, and played well with it. When I later had the Deathadder, 1800dpi felt even better than it did with 2000 and the G5's laser sensor.
 
RAT9 on about 1600-2000 DPI. Not uber sensitive but it's as much as I can handle without my aiming going nuts. I have the sniper button too for if I want really low DPI for precision aiming (set at 20%, so 400 DPI).
 
lowest dpi on mouse (mx518) anddd highest possible ingame one :D.. its how i play counterstrike anyway

That's not surprising since optical sensors are far superior to laser's.
 
already been said use the native cpi/dpi depending on which mouse you
have. Google your mouse for it's perfect control speed and keep windows sens. At 6/11.

I've tried so many different mice and they all had little niggles with them, be it poor lasers, angle prediction, acceleration built into sensor etc.

I think Ive found a good cheap one at moment.

New models of g400 with pid above 13333, optical sensor native 800/3600, no angle prediction,1000 polling and no acceleration on the sensor.

Sorry think gone totally off topic, I use 800 dpi :)
