The osu! Thread

Is there a strategy to do those spinners with your mouse? I end up doing too big of a circle when I try to do them.

I'm wondering whether or not you have pointer precision on or not. I could barely do spinners at all until I turned pointer precision off.


To anyone who is using a mouse I suggest turning it off while playing Osu.



It's very hard to be accurate on hard and insane songs when you have pointer precision on because your cursor will constantly change the speed it's moving at, and apparently the cursor won't always even move the same distance even if you move the mouse in the same exact way, so it makes it difficult to predict where your cursor will end up. It doesn't matter as much when you're doing Easy and Normal difficulty beatmaps, but it makes a bigger impact on harder maps.

Of course, since this effects all of windows, if you want the mouse acceleration back after playing you would have to recheck the item. If you decide to play osu a lot, but still want the mouse acceleration outside of the game, it would be advisable to make a desktop shortcut to your mouse settings.
