I use 3.5 sens with 0 accel. What zoomsens do i need to to use have an equivalent of 2 sens 0 accel with 90zoomfov? I used to use 90zoomfov with .57 zoomsens but it feels a bit higher than sensitivity 2 with 90fov.
sorry, too stupid too figure out how im supposed to use it. Can someone do it for me? I've tried did a full 360 with sensitivity 2 90 fov unzoomed and the closest i could get to that feeling in zoomed mode 90 fov 90 zoomfov was with cg_zoomsensitivity .45.
You put your non zoomed sensitivity in the Sensitivity-box then your normal (unzoomed) fov to the FOV-box and finally your zoomfov to the Zoom FOV-box and then press Calculate. You then get the value you should use for cg_zoomSensitivity so it would equal your normal sensitivity.
this will be my last post because i don't think anybody understands what im trying to say and i can't explain it any better. I know that ql scales the sens when you zoom. What i want to do is use a lowered cg_zoomsensitivitivity so cg_zoomfov 90 zoomed in will feel exactly like sens 2 cl_mouseaccel 0 at 90 fov. my zoomfov is 90 and same with fov. If i just use cg_zoomsensitivity 1 and let ql scale it and use zoom at 90 zoomfov it will feel like 3.5 sensitivity 0 accel but i want it to feel like 2 sens 0 accel so i have to use something like cg_zoomsensitivity .45.
my base fov is 90. I want to use the first method instead of the second method you mentioned because with my complicated config I need to use it. Also when i first tried to calculate it i thought 57 percent of 3.5 is 1.995 so tried using .57 cg_zoomsensitivity but it still felt a bit different so i did a ruler test with 90 zfov 3.5 sens 0 accel .57 zoomsens and it was definitely different from 90 basefov 2 sens 0 accel. The closest i could get with the ruler was using .45 zoomsens so i think something is wrong with the way im calculating it.
what do you mean? In case you put same fov and zoomfov? At 0 it should only be the same in case your base fov is 90(and zoom fov aswell)
and 1 is bugged at non-4:3 resolutions
I've found that when you use a non-0 value, the global sensitivity is changed (compared to q3 algorithm). zoomsens set to 0 is much more smooth to me. It's subtle but noticable with micro-movements.
So basically, if you're used to used to a value, keep it that way.
