Hello!

I have installed ET and Im using lowsens settings in game. I noticed that if i move faster the mouse the speed of my crosshair dosent increase so smoothly. Is there a way to disable the acceleration in the drivers? This is very annoying as the tracking becomes more difficult.
xset m 0 0 has no effect.

Thanks!

So tell me more about your mouse and what you want to know. Thanks

I have found in certain games when reaching the in game fps cap the game becomes unplayable as everything either moves to fast or you can no longer control your movements in a smooth fashion.

I am not sure if ET has this issue, never played it, but i have experienced this in Savage and Doom3. Find the in game command to set the max fps to something that your machine will never reach and it fixes the issue for me.

Code:
# Identifier and driver

    Identifier   "Mouse1"
    Driver   "mouse"
    Option "Protocol"    "Auto"   # Auto detect
    Option "Device"      "/dev/input/mice"
    Option "AccelFactor" "0.0000"
    Option "Resolution" "500"


Option "AccelFactor" "0.0000" completely turns off mouse acceleration which makes playing FPS less of a pain in the ass 8O this goes in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
