Re: Mouse horizontal sensitivity while moving issue

That's normal, many didn't know it when I asked them. Sensitivity is way lower when you stand still.

Re: Mouse horizontal sensitivity while moving issue

I remember how you talked about it, you said it was better to shoot standing up, then the sensitivity is normal, which should be and does not increase, you threw off a video where, with your small sensitivity, you shot from the stg on the map battle of bulge

Re: Mouse horizontal sensitivity while moving issue

You can try out the fix in singleplayer, but it would take an actual patch to work on multiplayer that both the server and player would need to update

Nice try, but this has nothing to do with mouse acceleration on the x-axis. All it does is set the maximum angle at which the body of the soldier turns, after the upper body already started turning. When you are standing still and turn to the left or right, the soldier’s arrow on the minimap doesn’t change direction until its rotation goes above the turn right or left angle. That’s all this code does, nothing more.

Any updates on this problem? It is a very interesting finding.

Re: Mouse horizontal sensitivity while moving issue

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

Re: Mouse horizontal sensitivity while moving issue

Another bug squashed. Well done, uuuz. Just don't kill all the bugs.

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

Re: Mouse horizontal sensitivity while moving issue

So, is everyone OK with this fix? No one is going to call this cheating?
Is this considered to be fair and legitimate?

I'd like to make sure that everyone's OK with it before I try it out.

Re: Mouse horizontal sensitivity while moving issue

Nothing cheats if all has that. But this change isn’t good for me ( at least after many years of “bugged” sensitivity game) I can’t get used to this fix, an old kind sense boost while moving also is a much realistic imo

Not a cheat. Anyone can use the fix and configure it as they please as Max pointed out.

Thanks, I'll try it and see. Around 2015 I had a mouse that had the best natural sensitivity for me. It was a cheap wireless mouse and it didn't have any adjustable settings but it was perfectly smooth and easy to aim with. Even with better and better quality mouses, I've never had that smoothness since.

Thanks! It's hard to know sometimes what's legit and whats a cheat. The wide screen patch where, if you're in a tank, you can see around the edges of the standard driver's window, for example. I thought that would be called a cheat. It would be good to have a list of acceptable things and one of unacceptable things.
