It redefines the curve used by the 'Enhance pointer precision' feature to be a completely straight line. This is annoying, because where you are aiming at depends on how far you move your mouse, and also on how fast you moved the mouse to aim. With 'Enhance pointer precision' enabled, slower mouse movements make the pointer go extra slow and faster mouse movements make the pointer go extra fast.
(It enables it even if you have it turned off in the Control Panel Mouse settings.) Now when those games call the function (asking that all movement be accelerated), Windows enables the mouse 'Enhance pointer precision' feature, which adds mouse acceleration using a varying curve to control the mouse response. In XP, and later Windows versions, Microsoft changed how mouse pointer acceleration worked. Pointing and aiming in those games was OK, because the mouse response was then linear (all movement was accelerated by the same amount it was doubled). On Windows 2000 and earlier, that removed all variable acceleration. Some older games, such as Half-Life 1, Counter-Strike 1.x, Quake, Quake 2, Unreal and others, while they are active and running, call a Windows function intending to disable variable mouse acceleration by forcing ALL movement to be accelerated by the same amount (doubled). If you don't know you need it, then you don't need it! (If you applied one of the Windows 2000 or Windows 98/95 Acceleration fixes, then 'Enhance pointer precision' must be checked ON to enable it.)

Windows mouse acceleration driver#
Many Quake Pro gamers have installed this driver instead of the popular in-game mouse acceleration to make the acceleration curve even more precise. See if you have 100% or 125% or 150% selected. Finally, an extra driver hangs between your mouse and the operating system, similar to the native Windows mouse acceleration. It is like the CPL Mouse Fix and Cheese Mouse Fix, but gives exactly 1-to-1 mouse to pointer response for Windows 7 or Windows 8.x or Windows 10.Įxactly 1-to-1 means no discarded or delayed mouse input while game playing.įind the display DPI that you currently use:Ĭlick Start, click Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization, select Display.
