rawaccel VS trackball

This might help you out https://github.com/a1xd/rawaccel

Raw Accel is hands down the gold standard of mouse acceleration. If it's possible to just drag and drop it directly into Steam Input, that's pretty much exactly what I would want. Either way, I'll go ahead and explain the reasons why I like Raw Accel by sharing my observations about accel after using it for so long.

First i will make a couple of corrections to your previous post: 1. Most players will find it easier to recoil with edpi above 800 up to a certain point since most grips generate friction against the mousepad 2. If you have the right setup (good mousepad, good mouse, mouse feet and arm sleeve) your edpi range will go up, so you can go from controlling between 700-1000 to 400-1600 (as long as you understand what friction you need) About your problem: 1. You could use raw accel (although idk if its bannable by faciet, so post on their reddit). 2. You could do the math to get the right ratio by increasing the edpi of your vertical axis with the correct m_yaw. 3. Buy a mousepad with higher vertical speed or an arm sleeve to reduce friction. 4. Buy a razer mouse or one that has the option to change the axis sensitivity. 5. Search for some software in r/MouseReview

I use old trackballs such as this one with RawAccel on Windows. Tweaked the libinput acceleration settings on Linux. Haven't tried on OSX.

Remember that Raw Accel is open source, so anyone is free to point out where Raw Accel would change other mouse drivers or affect any changes once uninstalled. https://github.com/a1xd/rawaccel/tree/master/common

I don't know if it would help, but RawAccel lets you make a custom setup for mouse acceleration. It requires a good amount of fiddling and adjustment, but it might be able to help you move your crosshair farther while still using a small area on your mousepad.

I don't know why you're asking in r/piracy but RawAccel what you're asking for

I did lay out a simple carrier board as a direct replacement for the breadboard in a more permanent build, and had a few of them made up through OshPark. It's really basic -- no components, just some traces and solder pads. (My first time trying to use kicad, I think it turned out decent for what it is.)

not quite sure what you are getting at... regarding thumb use, you can always buy used FXes (or new ones if you want a crazy markup). if you want something slightly more modern, there is the cordless FX. the DIY trackball you speak of is publicly available here: https://github.com/monroewilliams/trackball

isnt a scan, but its a 3d printable trackball with roughly similar shape: https://github.com/monroewilliams/trackball

For me, the hand position used with the Logitech Trackman Marble FX was near perfect for reducing hand and wrist stress. Unfortunately that model was discontinued many years ago, and they're now hard to find, expensive, and generally antiquated (PS/2 interface, dodgy early optical sensor, no scroll wheel). This was the main reason I designed and built my own trackball. Its shape was inspired by the Marble FX, although I modeled it from scratch in OpenSCAD.

Of course. 😎

Sources for all the parts I used are listed here, and there's a fairly extensive assembly guide with pictures here.

For my scratch-built trackball project, I used these breakout boards, and based my initial code off of the seller's sample code. His sample is for Arduino. but it's basically pretty straightforward C code that isn't hard to adapt to any microcontroller. For my purposes I needed to run two of the sensors off one microcontroller, so I turned into a C++ class that runs one sensor per instance, and supports a couple different related sensors (ADNS9800 and PMW3360).

The ball-spin mousewheel is a really nice touch, too
