I have a Razer Imperator, and I found a way to fix the erratic mouse behavior in OS X with SCII. You can turn off the acceleration of the Imperator under system preferences, but we all know the mouse will still act ridiculous when you play SCII. If you set the sensitivity to 0% in Starcraft, the mouse will behave completely normally. I'm not sure if this is widely known as I just recently figured it out, or if it works with other mice, but now I no longer have to switch to my Windows 7 partition to feel comfortable playing.

The problem is that if you minimize in and out, it can go crazy.

That's also not a solution for other games This is.

I have lots of confirmed working reports so far!

I have a Razer Deathadder and can confirm this fix does indeed work. I had to fiddle with some of the settings on my Razer driver, but am now operating on what feels like my windows sensitivity. I am elated Bumblebees was able to fix this problem, as it's one I've been struggling with for a while now.

Hopefully, as this project develops, it will work for all mac users. There certainly is reason to have hope! Many thanks to Bumblebees for working on this!

Wooooooaaaaah. If this ends up working this will be huuuuuuge. Generations of legions of multitudes of mac users will bow down before you in abject obeisance.

I would love this to work. I've tried USB Overdrive, Logitech and Razer drivers to no avail. Switching to bootcamp to play is quite annoying. If I can help with the testing at all let me know.

It definitely works with razer mice. I've had it tested on all models now. Any model with mac drivers is 100% good to go.

Some of the models without mac drivers require a bit of tweaking. Hopefully I can handle that working around that

i got it working on my deathadder, had to set sensitivity on drivers to 10 and dpi to 1800, i get a slight slow down of the curser when i change windows to sc2, but i think thats just the fix working, so it makes me happy haha.

thanks a lot!

That slowdown should be significantly lessened in the version I'm putting out tomorrow. It's actually a bug.

Btw guys, I don't think it's possible for me to make this work with mice that don't have DPI or driver sensitivity settings. I'd have to write my own generic driver (essentially write usb overdrive!), and I have no interest in that.

At this point, I think it's safe to say that you can run razer orochi, imperator, deathadder, naga and steelseries xai for sure.

I just tried personally with a logitech g5, and it felt pretty decent.

I'm so excited to try this out. The only piece of software i have been more excited about recently is Starcraft 2 itself :D

I really appreciate your work, I had a hard time to figure out how to get a decent mouse control with my Copperhead and Mac OS.

USB Overdrive works for me though. I've set Starcraft's mouse "speed" to 0% as well as Mac OS's acceleration. In USB Overdrive I set the mouse speed to 100% and turned off acceleration. That removes acceleration completely and lets me tab around as often as I want.

Wow, it works great.

As a long time (since launch) user of the regular os x mouse in SC2, it was a little weird to get used to. Just give it a few games and it really becomes second nature.

One thing to note, make sure you turn down your scroll wheel speed in the Razer control panel. After the updates it's crazy fast. I had to turn it all the way down for it to be normal.
