are people having better luck with the mx518? without mouse fixer, on my macbook, the abyssus moves the mouse pointer by its own freaking self. is that really a mouse acceleration problem? or did i just get a lemon of a mouse? tia! | ||

The uninstall directions are included in the readme. It's only 2 very easy steps and a restart. It's fairly rare for someone to have to kill the process first, hence the question above. The cursor moving on its own is definitely a lens or surface issue. Try to clean your mousing surface or use a different one. If that doesn't work then use a cotton swab with some dawn/joy dish detergent and rinse it off with a clean cotton swab. I know everyone suggest alcohol, but don't. It can interact with some of the plastics used to cover, and around, the optics on certain mice. I've had a bunch of people report the odd mouse movement. It's because very tiny movements are not picked up when acceleration is on. Slow, small movements are lessened dramatically, and fast, large movements are exaggerated. When there is no acceleration, every movement is reproduced in a 1:1 ratio of what the mouse sends to the computer. If your mouse or mousing surface had a problem before, it was being masked by the OS X acceleration. | ||

Anyone with that mouse was able to get rid of mouse acceleration? I removed USB Overdrive, restarted, installed MouseFixer, restarted, and then mouse acceleration was all over the place. (Mouse sensitivity on the G9x was set to the two lower bars on the mouse) I tried to uninstall per the readme.txt file. Removed the Application/Mousefixer files but could not find /LaunchAgent/ files. Could that be an issue where Mousefixer wasn't executing? | ||

Please read the readme. You have to adjust the DPI on the mouse if you want higher sensitivity. If you can't do that, then you need a new mouse. If you don't want a new mouse, I'm sorry but there's nothing you can do except use USB overdrive, which unfortunately will not have the same feel as in windows or X. | ||

Seems there are no drivers available from Razer and 3500 DPI seems too slow. ![]() It's a shame.. because the mouse finally feels normal and responsive for once. Anyone find any work-arounds? I really dont want to go back to overdrive. ![]() In-game settings are still adjustable though... Is this enabling crappy Mac acceleration when i play around with this? A setting of 2% seems to be ok... any higher than that and the mouse gets out of control. Is this just disabling Mousefixer? Hopefully razer will release some mac support for their mice. :/ | ||

Works well with the Logitech G5. This is probably the best that can be done until apple decides to fix it themselves, and it's definitely a fix. You can find the code that handles mouse ballistics in OS X with some sleuthing. It's pretty funny code. Comments like "Not sure how this works, but it seems to make stuff better". Yeah... NeXT carry over garbage Really weird considering how much effort Apple spends on making their software as useable as possible. I guess its one of those things that no one really cares about anymore as you get used to it (or if you've only used Macs for your whole life, you might consider Windows' mouse acceleration to be a horrible mess). | ||

Hopefully razer will release some mac support for their mice. :/ If 3500dpi is not working, the program is not working correctly. Please make sure all other mouse programs are FULLY uninstalled and that the correct files are in place (see uninstall directions for clues). 3500 dpi should be ridiculously, unusably fast. That would cover the full width of a 1080p screen in half an inch. That means you'd have to move your mouse less than half a millimeter for every 2.5cm (1 inch) of movement on a 30" computer screen. If you adjust the sensitivity in SC2 above 1%, it is adding acceleration. That is just how OGL works on mac, sorry. The game has to be made for linear acceleration itself to do otherwise, and SC2 is not. | ||

I am using the mousefixer2 with a razer Orochi on a 15" mbp (6750m version) The driver and the mousefixer somehow interact with eachother the mouse slows down when entering the driver prefpane. i had it set to maximum of 4k dpi which kinda made it uncontrolable with mousefixer at first. now i am down to 2250 dpi and just left it that way, so when the system boots the mousefixer starts its work and works fine. you just need to figure out once, what is a good setting for ya. only question now is, is there any acceleration involved now at all? because if so i would like to tune that down even more and rise the dpi of that mouse instead, to gain more accuracy. | ||

If mousefixer is working, there is no acceleration except that which maybe present due to your mouse's firmware. The orochi will add a slight accel due to the filtering mechanism it uses. There is _nothing_ you can do about it, and it will be identical in windows. | ||

I tried MouseFixer 2, with DeathAdder Black Edition i am on a hackintosh (everything works fine) First i have to mention after 1 restart if i open the settings the panel doesnt recognize the Deathadder and i have to unplug/plug it again to the usp port. Second if u ise 1800 DPI the mouse is really fast and doesnt react as the windows and it woes all the time, no control at all. I have to use 900 DPI for a promising perfonmance but i am not sure that this thing works. of course i have unistalled SteerMouse. Any tips? Should i install drivers for the simple Deathadder and not the black edition? could you plz provide me a skype contact to work out on this? i have the time to be like a "beta" tester ![]() | ||
