Why is the screen resolution relevant?

what a ridiculously cool tool!
i always hate changing dpi and then having the hassle with finding a new good sens. is there something for that as well?

wohoooooo thx m8

edit:

New values
cl_mouseaccelpower 2
m_cpi 1150
sensitivity 10.957
cl_mouseaccel 0.383
cl_mousesenscap 0.000
cl_mouseacceloffset 0
m_yaw 0.022
m_pitch 0.022

seriously?? wtf. so i set this now and my sens is the same. and if i get a new mouse with 450 dpi, i just change m_cpi and then what? I think i don't get this yet. you mind elaborating

what i understood: if I have m_cpi in any value > 0, quake interprets the other parameters (sens, accel,..) as standardized and automatically multiplies some factor corresponding to your m_cpi value?

450 dpi

D:

this calculator is worthless, doesnt help me with my quest and no its not 450 dpi

The screen resolution is irrelevant as long as you use the same fov. (IIRC, QL adjusts your fov automatically if you're using a different aspect ratio.) The only thing you need to worry about is if you can move your cursor by just a pixel with your current sens/dpi/screen width, or if you have to use a higher dpi step. And the calculator can help you with that.

Edit: You may have to set r_aspectRatio. Values allowed are: 0=4:3, 1=16:9, 2=16:10, 3=5:4.

okay this i find valid answer. thx

just use the same dpi

One of the biggest exercises in futility. Why? The best sensitivity is simply what you're most comfortable with. Your new value can be approximate and you will adjust. In FPS games it's generally advantageous to keep your crosshair on the enemy. Therefore what matters most is your visual acuity, reaction time, input latency, refresh rate, color scheme and so forth. The emphasis on sensitivity is actually surprising to me. Maybe it's simply people attempting to figure out the talent of great players.

dude im great player

[minus minus minus]

u wish... lil sad cunt

[nolife+noskills] * croatia = makie !

;DDD

shhh theres no need to be upset

coming from the guy who raged vs me ingame! :D:D:D

me raged? never. obvious butthurt is obvious... things i done to you were maybe too harsh for your gentle soul, heal up my child heal up.

yea its cool that you learned some catchy 4chan-comeback lines, but it wont change that you are awful at duel and mediocre at tdm despite playing for 100 years already

well "jimmie rustle" is just priceless and suits perfectly for zit kids like yourslef. butthurt is strong on this one :))))

Q.E.D.

next lol

Oh please let's have a lesson in settings from Mr. trying to get zoom banned.

Coming from a guy who needs zoom to hit only ~40% RG... I suppose I'd cling to it as well.

Except you have no idea if I use zoom or not, nor how telling my accuracy number really is since it is over 10k games in 4 years!
