Hi Bumblebees, great work on this nifty app.

Would it be possible to leave the acceleration on as normal on trackpad while keeping the mouse linear?


That is what is already does. mf3 also has options to handle trackpad as well.... if I finish it.

Hi, i found this thread through googling, and i would love to use your tool to play sc2 on my mac. im using a razer copperhead mouse with no special drivers, but with this tool to fix the mouse acceleration (outside of games):
http://osxdaily.com/2010/06/02/kill-os-x-mouse-acceleration-from-the-command-line/

as known, mouse acceleration will reset once i start sc2. i downloaded your tool and installed it, but nothing changed. i also dont see any special prefpane in the preferences. am i doing something wrong, or is my mouse not supported?



Are you using leopard? Since it's only compatible with 10.6+ (snow leopard and up) that might be the problem.
If you are using 10.6+ then check if you have /Library/LaunchAgents/com.bumblebees.mousefixer.plist

You should also check if the process is running by looking for "Mousefixer2" in your Activity Monitor.

If either one of the two things is missing then I would assume it's an installation problem. If both things are present then Im not sure what it could be, do let us know if thats the case maybe something can be figured out.


Please completely forget what i wrote. i actually managed to miss the big fat "MAKE SURE YOU RESTART AFTER INSTALLATION" and did *not* restart after installation.

Coming back to it today, i saw the mousefixer process, and tried to play sc2. voila! mouse works perfectly with no acceleration at all!

thanks so much for this tool!

for the records: snow leopard + diamon copperhead + no drivers = works 100%

In 1.4 you can now check the box "Mouse sensitivity" and sc2 will work MUCH better with any mouse program, including mousefixer!

Thanks to blizzard! Now if they could do the mouse sensitivity portion correctly... It's really not that hard :|

Also, bad news, I lost all my work on 3.0 I did something really dumb. Bleh

Shouldn't be hard to redo what was done, maybe even better. Just going to be later.

Hey bumbles, just wanted to let you know that after multiple installations my computer refuses to input the plist file into the launchagents folder. If there's anyways to isolate this particular folder and input it myself, that would be much appreciated

I'm under Snow Leopard and using a SS Xai.

Edit: after troubleshooting using you and pathan's dialogue I was able to use the isolated plist from the the users/library file and copy that into the straight library file. I also added mousefixer as a login launch item and it seems to be working ok, I'm still perturbed by the lack of control in in very slow movements, but expecting perfection from a mac OS isn't something I think is gonna happen, so thanks for all the help up to this point

dbl edit: to be clear, the problem is the mouse is unpredictably jittery when movements are slowed to do normal things like click the "x" on a window, it is VERY frustrating because it makes mundane things difficult

I'm getting the same negative acceleration issue in Lion as a few other people in the thread did, was the cause ever discovered? It's a brand new iMac and some kind of simple Logitech mouse.

Am using Logitech Performance MX mouse on Lion,and it feels exactly like with ExactTool software.
What i mean by that,it feels like i am making circles with cursor.

I dont if this is how it needs to be,but it sure isn't as its on Windows.
A lot worse then with acceleration on.Or is Lion not supported?

BTW. Am not using LCC just default settings.

That is what should occur with linear acceleration. It would appear that you do not like linear acceleration if that is a problem that is bothering you.

I have not been able to make this happen. I could really use a how-to on how to make this occur.

Even a Skype call with someone would probably help me out a bit.

I'm sorry, I realize english is probably not your native language, but I don't understand your phrase "What i mean by that,it feels like i am making circles with cursor."

It is supported in lion.

Does anyone know if there's way to increase the DPI of the mouse after installing the mousefixer? The acceleration is perfect after installing the app, but the mouse itself moves quite slowly, and changing the settings in logitech control center or in mouse preferences doesn't have any effect on the cursor movement.

I also tried using usb overdrive after applying the fix, but that doesn't have any effect either, as long as I have mousefixer installed no other cursor movement settings seem to apply :-(

You are right English is not my native language.

Maybe this two video will help you to understand what was i talking about.

First screencast is with default Lion settings.And second video is with MouseFixer.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/447438/ScreenFlow.mov

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/447438/ScreenFlow2.mov

You can see how more difficult is to reach that close button and how it feels like mouse is pointer is going in circles.

Thank you for the great program, its made a significant difference for me.
However, I have a logitech mouse and am unable to find a way to change the sensitivity. For me, the control panel changes don't negate Mousefixer, they just simply have no effect and revert back to default when I close the window. The logitech driver I downloaded has no effect either.

Any advice on solutions/new mouse?

That looks like it is working exactly how it should. I think you're just used to the OS X acceleration (which makes the mouse slower when you move slowly).

Thank you for the video, that was much easier to figure out than a lot of other problems

Razer deathadder or Steel series Sensei or Xai.

Those are the best options in my opinion. Any mouse that has onboard dpi control or OS X drivers.

Keep in mind that the logitech do not have proper os x drivers, it's just a helper app.

Are you sure Windows doesn't have "enhance pointer precision" on? That is mouse acceleration. That would feel similar to OS X default.
