What happens when the bug occurs? So with the new sensitivity settings for ADS.. i wanted to make my hipfire and scope sensitivity a 1:1 ratio. To achieve this, there is a calculator going around to help find your values.. (https://jscalc.io/calc/Q1gf45VCY4tmm2dq) - for reference So after entering all my values, and playing with the ads modifier, i found my 2x scope value. So my settings are DPI 800 Ingame sens 1.6 FOV - cl_fovscale 1.444 ADS sens multiplier for 2x - 2.298 Assuming my math and calculation is right, if i move my mouse from one side of the pad to the other. Whether i'm hipfiring or ADSing w a 2x. It should always take the same distance. (regardless of how a lower fov "feels") So testing this, it does work as intended.. but something felt off.. I realized that if i am flicking to a target and ads in the middle of the mouse movement. The game adds a LOT of mouse accel.. to the point it's pretty much unusable. I made 2 videos showing everything i can and giving examples of how to recreate this.. https://youtu.be/kWJQSRlNop8 - video 1 https://youtu.be/j_3Q6INAhs0 - video 2 - watch this one first as i have a webcam + i show using the calculator and settings involved. I am really eager to see if this can be fixed or if it's client side. I'll help in any way, just reach out. [edit: email address removed] twitter.com/houndfps
