[Tip] Zandronum and Gaming Mice
« on: January 24, 2013, 09:24:19 PM »
Ok, so I've been dealing with a problem that's been pretty damn rage inducing so I wanted to share what I found out.  It seems that Zandronum may have an issue with gaming mice (Razer mice, high end Logitech, Roccat etc) that have a polling rate of 1000HZ.  What ends up happening is that after a quick movement, the buttons will not respond or will get stuck.  So there will be times you press fire and nothing happens, or your firing will get locked.  The solution is a simple one, select a polling rate below 1000HZ and the problem goes away.   I have no clue why this is an issue, but at least the fix is simple.

DTDSphere (yay DTD!) has a great video in this post detailing the issue
