Cursor problems (archived by John)

[Antti]

I have problems with my cursor or my mouse have problem with ET. It's really enoying and I cant play. My cursor moves are really stupid.

For example it have fluent start, then cursor speed up and then slows down, or it moves like a drunken man.

And sometimes it have jumpy moves.

It's really hard to describe it and if nobody will understand I'll make a video.
I tried to re-install ET like 7 times, but it didn't help.


And it can not be problem with my mouse, cuz another games works well.

I suggest you to check your windows settings and cfg just because you might have mouseacceleration on, but disabled in other games

[Antti]

I checked my windows setting and my etconfig and I have disabled mouse acceleration.

Hmm it feels i know that problem, http://donewmouseaccel.blogspot.nl/2010/...n-fix.html
download this tool and there is a tool called mouse record or something like that, look in the readme how it works and start that program run ET move your mouse bit around and check if your mouse acceleration gets enabled while being ingame. if yes then you can apply his 1:1 mouse accell fix.
Just read his readme and you will know what i mean
It helped me many times.

[Antti]

Mouse recorder wrote me that mouse acceleration is off and I dont need any fix. But I applied that fix and it looks it's okay.


So Thanks for help.

Bwt, how can I mark this thread as solved?

[Antti]

So it's not ok. Ah what should cause this? I don't want to re-install windows only because of ET.

did u enabled smooth mouse setting in ET, if mouse recorder says your mouse acceleration is off while being in ET(you must swing with ur mouse when you are ingame and minimize to see what the recorder says it won't work if you start the game and record on desktop with game on background).
then something is wrong with ET itself, you can try installing a 2nd ET on different location of your HDD to see if that one is working.
If that one works then you know it was ET causing the problem.
Otherwise im kinda out of ideas further then reinstalling windows. Must say i had a little mouse issue with ET few days ago and i reinstalled windows and it was all smooth again .
Sometimes it helps alot when you reinstall your OS

And what did happened between the times of your 2 posts of saying its solved and not solved? cause the fix did helped something at first usage, but what did you change your mind?

No, it was unsuccessful.

Veli that from FA clan i already gave that solution, and it seems it helped antti for a bit but then it stopped?
maybe you got unsufficient rights to keep registry edits, or maybe registry cleaner you are using removed it?

I know with the new windows 8/8.1 they use RAW input for mouse, that causes trouble with older games with ET that doesnt use RAW input.
You can test it by trying to use ET:legacy for once to see if its fixed cause ET:legacy is renewed version of ET with RAW input.

i can't say anything then just downgrade to windows 7. I don't know if it maybe is just your mouse or a windows problem
