Sensitivity Increase

Yo ppl, its me Jit. I decided to be more active in trem and in doing so, i frequently switch from trem to windows. I run windows vista sp1. Upon returning to the game, i find that my sensitivity has increased like three times. I can normally turn about 240 degrees in one sweep and i have found that i can turn about 900 degree's in one sweep. I use a logitech g5 battlefield 2142 edition with setpoint 4.60.122 driver edition. Hopefully one of the many people on the forums who own a g5 can help me out :). Anyone know how i can stop this from happening and stuff?

You can set the sensitivity in-game using /sensitivity in the console.

no. i check my sensitivity and it increases when it doesn't change. i never change my sensitivity on my mouse or ingame. It just changes by itself but the number doesn't change. It stays at 5 where i keep it. None of the numbers change, only when i go switch back to trem is when it changes.

scenario: I play trem. Then i'm like let me go check aim. so i minimize tremulous ( i play in fullscreen) by pressing the windows button. trem goes down and i click on aim and talk to some peeps. i go back to tremulous by clicking it on the taskbar on the bottom (windows vista sp1). i move around and find that my sensitivity has increased by a LOT!. Like 3 folds. I check my sensitivity ingame, its the same; i check my dpi, its the same. But my sensitivity has increased.

I don't know why this happens, but i believe it must a bug or something in vista cus this never happened to me when i was on my old win xp sp1 computer.

Did you tell your drivers to have different sensitivity/DPI in different applications?

This won't be a permanent solution but you could try  /vid_restart and see if that 'defaults' the sensitivity.

/m_yaw and /m_pitch maybe?

did you even READ what he said?! It's something to do with Vista.

Don't use Setpoint and it should automagically solve most of your problems.

At least, it has always done so for me and my MX518.

/in_restart is also worth a try

No. I have gamesettings on for tremulous.exe . I have tried vid_restart and it doesnt work. I'll try /in_restart and pitch and yaw were the same. btw, I used the same settings in XP.

DoN't switch trem to windows. trem is better.
