My Mouse is Autistic

-15 Frags +

I've been having this weird problem with my mouse. With raw input on, whenever I try to track, my mouse randomly stutters/freezes for a split second. With raw input off, it seems like my sensitivity randomly goes to max and my cursor flies across the screen, probably as a result of the freezing plus the game trying to predict the cursor movement.

I use a Razer Deathadder 3.5G

I have tried re/uninstalling drivers, switching usb ports, cleaning my mousepad, playing with no mousepad, cleaning the mouse sensor, raw input on/off, mouse smoothing on/off

I tried switching to a brand new G400, but the problem still occurred, so I'm thinking it's something to do with my system rather than my mouse.

This ONLY happens in TF2, no other games as far as I can tell, and not at all out of game.

This is killing me. :C

Has anyone had a problem similar to this one, or does anyone have any suggestions on what might be causing it/how to fix it? If so, any help would be greatly appreciated. If you need any more information about my problem, I'm happy to provide it.

Thanks

If you go back to xbox this will not be a problem anymore 8)

I have a deathadder too and it feels different than before, so maybe is not just you.

restart your computer. make sure your usb connection isn't unplugging/replugging. if all else fails uninstall the DA drivers and deal with having plug-and-play ones forever instead of just reinstalling. if that doesn't help you probably have a defective mouse.

Make sure you haven't set tf2 to high priority. That can fuck with input device drivers.

It's not actually because most people on here are that offended by it, it's really just an avant-garde reaction to something the hive mind deems plebeian.
On topic, make sure nothing cpu intensive has high priority, try a non-g400 mouse, try other Source games if you haven't already.

Autism is a physical condition linked to abnormal biology and chemistry in the brain. The exact causes of these abnormalities remain unknown, but this is a very active area of research. There are probably a combination of factors that lead to autism. Genetic factors seem to be important. For example, identical twins are much more likely than fraternal twins or siblings to both have autism. Similarly, language abnormalities are more common in relatives of autistic children. Chromosomal abnormalities and other nervous system (neurological) problems are also more common in families with autism.
A number of other possible causes have been suspected, but not proven. They involve:

Diet
Digestive tract changes
Mercury poisoning
The body's inability to properly use vitamins and minerals
Vaccine sensitivity
AUTISM AND VACCINES

Many parents are worried that some vaccines are not safe and may harm their baby or young child. They may ask their doctor or nurse to wait, or even refuse to have the vaccine. However, it is important to also think about the risks of not having the vaccination. Some people believe that the small amount of mercury (called thimerosal) that is a common preservative in multidose vaccines causes autism or ADHD. However, studies have NOT shown this risk to be true. The American Academy of Pediatrics, and The Institute of Medicine (IOM) agree that no vaccine or component of any vaccine is responsible for the number of children who are currently being diagnosed with autism. They conclude that the benefits of vaccines outweigh the risks. All of the routine childhood vaccines are available in single-dose forms that do not contain added mercury.

Well, you could try uninstalling TF2/steam and deleting all local content. Tends to fix weird things for me, at least.

There's a reg edit to turn off acceleration that's innate in windows. That might help?

I thought m_rawinput 1 or 3 launch option commands disables that.

Not too long ago, nearly everybody, or so it seemed, deemed this or that "autistic." I don't know why or when the change of heart or bandwagon happened, but it's pretty stupid to shame people for it and derail a thread over it. It is possible to express opinions/advice without mounting a high horse.

SO THAT'S WHY I ALWAYS GET -FRAGGED WHEN I MENTION AUTISM. is it really that offensive? We still use retarded, raped, n-word, other insults they don't get shit about it but when you mention a specific mental illness SHIT GETS REAL

edit: we should stop derailing the thread.

There's basically a politically correct faction of tf.tv coming straight off of reddit that thinks that their feelings and plights must be constantly respected by all people in all matters (even when they are completely uninvolved). Pay no attention to how they pick and choose what to get upset about, but god damn if you're shit-talking with someone and you disrespect their pronouns then by god will you feel the wrath of tumblr.

That title was a terrible idea.

RakeMake sure you haven't set tf2 to high priority. That can fuck with input device drivers.

Thanks, Rake. I think this was the problem. Every time I started TF2, my computer was setting it to real-time priority level. o.O I changed it to normal and it seems to have fixed it.

Thanks everyone for your help
