I had a look at this problem, i'm not sure anymore if its a bug or intentional feature. Probably a bug, horizontal movement may be added twice when moving. The issue is both server and clientside (both sides calculate this value), so it cannot be fixed directly without having glitches when playing on servers. I implemented a workaround by halving the horizontal look sensitivity when moving. I noticed that when moving the vertical sensitivity was half of the horizontal, so fixing it this way seems more natural than doubling the "standing" sensitivity. The option will be in the next release of bf42plus, but DISABLED by default, because it changes how the game feels quite a bit. If somebody wants this it can be enabled, but i don't want to force this kind of change on everyone.

Here is a custom build (v1.3.3) that includes the code: https://update.bf1942.hu/release/1.3.3- … dsound.dll

Note that you will probably have to adjust your infantry mouse sensitivity, as it will be a bit unusual.

To enable it use this console command:

plus.correctedLookSensitivity 1

Or modify the setting in bf42plus.ini

Holy shit you actually fixed it after all this time. Amazing. What an absolute legend.

windows 10 user huh? i take it that your monitor is also 16:9. change the entire resolution of your windows os to something thats 4:3. or run bf42 in windowed mode. g502 should have onboard settings to set the sensitivity of x and y axis apart from one another. i fixed this problem some years ago for GTA SA but i dont remember exactly.

No surprises here that didn't work either. And even if I set different sensitivities for different axis it won't really help as it's only an issue when running as infantry. Otherwise it's fine because in fact it doesn't come into play when in any kind of vehicle. I wasn't sure before about this but I just checked it.

Don't think so. I also checked with a 4:3 resolution and same thing happens.

What DPI are you running the 502 at, bear in mind this is a very old game, do you get the same effect on other games?
I usually drop the DPI setting when in game because I find the mouse very jerky and change it back to default when in other progs and other games, this is why the profile is important make one for BF1942 and you should be good.

Yes, it only happens in BF1942. I'm running at 800 DPI and Enemy Territory for example works fine and that's an old ass game too. Mouse acceleration fix is the first thing I do when reinstalling my system and I just redid just in case but no luck. I even tried setting BF1942's G502 profile as default but that doesn't do anything either. I honestly don't know why I have this issue and you don't. Any other ideas?

Yes. Only BF1942 has this issue. Everything else I have works fine.

lol ... i have the exact same "issue" ..... sensivity on the x-axis as inf doubles when moving with the forward, back, left,
are you sure that sensivity doubles when in vehicles ? mine dont. which vehicle do you use ?

I'm almost certain but it's less visible in vehicles because of the floaty aiming I'd say. I'd have to check again to be sure though.

I've looked through the whole internet basically and all I've found was someone describing the same issue.
Basically what happens is whenever I move, be it as infantry or in a vehicle, my horizontal sensitivity doubles while vertical stays perfectly fine. However when I don't move at all and only look using my mouse everything's fine and sensitivity stays normal. I'm on Windows 10 with a Logitech G502. Anyone know if there's a solution to this? I'm completely stumped myself and have no idea what else to do and I can't really play like this.
