Good thing you wouldn't get new PC just to play games like the aforementioned man. I wouldn't be able to answer to mouse acceleration thing for the Razer mouse itself, but do you have a copy of Windows? I swear Windows on my Macbook runs SC2 better anyway. | ||

But its the sole reason I have windows (which I have obtained for free) on it. However, I use my computer more than Starcraft, and hence I have a Mac. | ||

I'm using SteerMouse application, it's great but it's not free. USB Overdrive is another app which is also great and free. Both apps allow to disable mouse acceleration btw. Curse people like Roflhaxx which think that mac are not for gaming ... you are living in a world when PC and Mac were separated by RISC and CISC processors. | ||

Mac OS is inferior to Windows when it comes to gaming and that is general knowledge, macs however got programs that are good for video stuff. | ||

Copy paste/write these commands: defaults write .GlobalPreferences com.apple.mouse.scaling -1 defaults write .GlobalPreferences com.apple.trackpad.scaling -1 This should turn off acceleration for good on your mac. | ||

I have found a solution to this problem I think As far as i know this will work any mouse, I have tried it on two so far (thats all I have so I will let you guys do the extensive research) and had success with both. What you need for a razor mouse (or any mouse with its own software) is to download and install the software and disable mouse acceleration from within the program. Then from here all you need to do is open up StarCraft 2 and make it fullscreen. You should notice all of your settings have been lost. Fear Not! If you unplug your mouse and replug it in again, the software you have downloaded will override StarCraft 2 and revert back to no acceleration. This will mean that your mouse speed and such will be dictated by the 3rd party software and the StarCraft 2 tracking speed will be useless. If you don't have a mouse with 3rd party drivers, you aren't out of luck. If you download USB Overdrive it will act as your 3rd party software and override StarCraft 2 with the same process. Make sure the "acceleration" box is checked and the slider is set to the lowest. Then load Starcraft 2 up and then unplug your mouse and replug it. USB Overdrive: http://www.usboverdrive.com/USBOverdrive/News.html This should solve your mac mouse acceleration problems! It certainly did for me! If you have any questions PM me. GLHF | ||
