Nothing prevents you from having exactly the same mouse precision with or without mouse acceleration, but many people find it's easier without acceleration. | ||

You are being pedantic, and your arguing over semantics contributes nothing to this thread. You're not going to magically gain extra DPI, no, but the vast majority of people will find it easier to quickly point at what they want to point at, i.e. their mouse accuracy will be improved. Also, it's 'moot', not 'mood'. EDIT: did not apply registry change, as it appears my 64-bit win7 installation has a different key structure from the one described in the OP. However, turning windows 'pointer precision' off is something I would absolutely recommend. | ||

Is this a kind of "we have to discuss this all 2 month thing?" Try this next time: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/search.php?q=mouse acceleration Also for different windows you have to do it in different ways. Just google "YOURWINDOWSVERSION disable mouse acceleration" | ||

If you have pointer precision or mouse acceleration disabled, this fix does absolutely nothing for sc2, since sc2 does not call windows functions that enable pointer precision ... If you have enabled raw input in the SC 2 options, you would not need the fix for playing SC 2. But I guess acceleration would be a problem, if raw input were not enabled ... Also, you need the fix if you want to play browser games like Reflex in Windows itself ... | ||

. Open the tree 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER', select control panel, then select mouse I have a lot of strings each with their own control panel and smoothmouse settings? first is .Default and then there is 10 more with different names such as "S-1-5-19" "S-1-5-20" etc what?! | ||

I've disabled it, only now my precision feels way worse, because I was so incredibly used to what I had before. Guess I'll just practice without it? Even going back and forth between checking and unchecking the box, it hardly even feels like it has any effect at all, after I adjust the speed accordingly so they are "similar". Now I don't know what to do lol You can't adjust the speed to make up for what you lost in acceleration. It doesn't work that way. You're just going to be overshooting small movements, and being accurate with large movements. Just pick the speed you want, play with it for 2-3 days, and you won't even notice it. | ||

SmoothMouseYCurve: ... 38,33,15,00,00,00,00,00 This works and does remove Windows Control Panel acceleration when a game turns "Enhance pointer precision" on. (Note: SC2 does not need a mousefix, just turn "Enhance pointer precision" OFF in the control panel.) BUT this is the old CPL mouse fix, which does not have exact 1-to-1 sensitivity between mouse movement and pointer movement. On Windows 7, TextSize=100%, 6/11, CPL has a sensitivity multiplier of × 0.775, rather than × 1.0 It is better to use the Cheese Fix (XP & Vista) that matches your in-game monitor refresh rate, or to use my MarkC Windows 7 Mouse Fix (Windows 7), as these have exact 1-to-1: A multipler of × 1.0 (The program MouseRegistryFix.exe, ALSO just applies the CPL Fix (and turns "Enhance pointer precision" OFF).) | ||

Mouse tools are more common in the FPS-esports community since precision is simply more important. About 90% of the pro CS players use 500hz usb refreshrate and markc or rinput to prevent mouse-acceleration. Players won't play if mouse acceleration is somehow still working. Being a tournament organizer for many years, i can deviantly tell you its a skill/knowledge how to work with these tools and keep yourself up to date. I've seen a few SC2 players using it, but not many. Some are afraid to get used to it and not able to reproduce their settings on other tournament pc's. Maybe its a matter of time, maybe not. But I guess CS professional players are a bit more technical skilled on this matter. One thing is for sure, using proper usb-refreshrate and having no acceleration increases your accuracy. 10 years ago, when i started organizing, some people played with some without. These days there is not a single pro that still plays with acceleration or 125 usb hz. And now everyone realised that it is extremely important to fix your pc with proper settings. | ||

If you had acceleration enabled and now disabled it, it means your mouse speed will be higher too. Try lowering the sensitivity after your adjustment.  | ||

I actually feel the muscles in my hand struggling to adjust to the change. I can see how it would increase mouse accuracy. Now to click around in Chrome to get used to it. | ||
