hi xD

i just installed windows vista, made all updates (sp1 etc) and then started q3 in win xp sp2 mode. works good, but i have the feeling that its not the same sens as in windows xp. only me has this problem? (i have /sensitivity 7.25 in xp and vista). maybe the sens in windows self is different as in xp? and if yes, what can i do to make the same sens like in xp in q3? =/

Check win mouse sensitivity in registers via regedit. And check if you can set the same value in both win versions Winking

In attached file is my win mouse settings. This sets my mouse to the same settings after reinstallation etc. Its normal .reg file renamed to .txt because of forum attachment stuff.

as far i know i never changed sens in xp, so it should be default from installation.... but i have only vista on computer at the moment, so maybe someone else can look for the sensitivity in xp from default istallation?

@simps, dont you have turned on win accel? I mean that sux checkbox which made your mouse more sensitive. Iam calling it win mouseaccel. Look at this Winking

(set in registry mouse speed Innocent

Always turn it off, and then use accel in quake 3.

Only way to have consistent settings from system to system.

re

Installing the SP1 wasn't a good Idea !
SP1 replaces the old (but working) mouse drivers (for usb mouses) and the new one just ... sucks
I can't tell you how or where to get the old ones and how to replace them, but if you keep restoration data, send SP1 to hell .... you don't need it .. you know Big grin
