syscall girl posted:Eh, I fixed mine and I'm not super coordinated or very bright really That this isn't common advice blows my mind. I was having logitech G100s have double clicking issues after 1-2 months of use at one point, and contact cleaner fixed it for me. And mice I sprayed it on never had the issue again, not even a year later.

Contact cleaner can work but opening up the mouse is a pain in the rear end. I don't want to gently caress up the Teflon feet. My Deathadder that I used for way too long years and years ago would have intermittent double clicking issues that I just sort of ignored until it went away, annoying but manageable. Eventually the wheel started having issues where scrolling down would leave me further up the page than I started and that's when I finally got a new mouse.

I'd still rather just buy a new mouse and have it running in a minute than spend a couple hours carefully disassembling and reassembling and hoping I didn't make a careless error along the way.  I'm sure it gets easier with practice but mouse failure is infrequent enough that I don't mind using it as an opportunity to upgrade and shelving the old one for emergency use or setting up new machines.

It beats the hell out of having to deal with putting feet back on. Usually good for the logitech mice with big feet. Not good for mice manufacturers that cheap out and give poo poo plastic feet (cm, probably others). But uh, the CM feet also don't really go back on well so you're screwed either way there and will want replacement feet. I usually just do my own feet because corepad's prices are insane. You could buy 100 of your own feet for the price of 2 sets from corepad, and dealing with the raw material isn't that annoying. A lot of times with replacement feet you gotta go through the same hassle of pressing down on the edges with a metal object anyway. Which is the entire annoying part of doing it yourself in my opinion. Khorne fucked around with this message at 12:32 on Apr 4, 2018 |

The DPI adjustment is fine to mess with to however you like, assuming they didn't put non-native resolutions in the increments. Low DPI makes finer-grained motions easier, but sweeping across the whole screen becomes hard.

Ignore the stupid batmobile aesthetic and feel it in your hand, you'll agree. I like three weights in the back and one in front, but play around, see how you like it.

Spyde posted:What did you prefer about the G502? I've been using a Rival for a couple years and pretty happy with it except for a slight wheel issue (I used 518s for years too). Just hate how nerdy the G502 looks but might have to try it out finally. I can't really say exactly what it is - the weird aesthetic of the G502 is throwing off my ability to estimate dimensions. I had a Rival for a few years too, and it sort of satisfied, but I hated how the G502 looked. I bit the bullet when I found it on sale and needed a new mouse, and now I split my time between a CST L-Trac and G502. Buy one from Best Buy; if you don't like it, you can return it, and they'll price match Amazon as long as it's sold by Amazon. Most other online stores, too.

Some ones to consider: Roccat Kone Pure line, Mionix Castor (slightly smaller imo), Logitech G402 (can be found for $25-30), Logitech G403/G603/G703 line. I've also had a good experience going for an ambi shape that fills the palm i.e. Nixeus Revel. I've used all of these in one way shape or form and while they can't beat the 518 I think they're all decent mice. Haven't used a G502 though since I had a G402 at the time and didn't see the need.

Forgot to mention I have big rear end hands which was probably partially why the Rival appealed to me when I got it. I'm not sure that's something that matters as much as I think though because even with this mouse I can't really palm it. As suggested, I'll probably try a G502 from Best Buy and see if I like it/can justify it. The Roccat Kone looks like it would be a good fit too but never used any of their products. Don't find ambidextrous mice as comfortable usually but maybe that's just because I'm so used to this style.

Does anyone know if there's a way (natively or 3rd party) to make Windows 10 recognize more than 5 unique mouse buttons? I'd like to have the extra buttons on my G602 recognized as mouse 6, mouse 7, etc, when I set up bindings in games if that is possible.

Allows you to map all the buttons on the mouse to just about whatever you wish. What I did with my G700 is bound the side buttons to Alt+ a number, and set the profile to only activate in the game. Back in Windows they go to no binding/default (back and forward).

I've been requesting it periodically for close to 15 years now. It is unlikely they will change their minds. Creating keystroke macros in LGS is the only way to make this happen.

Yeah I did more research after posting and found a lot of people in the autohotkey community griping about it. I ended up binding everything over 5 to its corresponding numpad key for the time being. At least the numbers are consistent between the G buttons and the keystrokes so that'll help a bit.

I ended up going with the G403 to replace my G400s, after it was recommended on another forum I frequent. It arrived today and really does feel like the spiritual successor to the G400s. Similar form factor, button layout, etc. Much improved scroll wheel design. If for some reason I don't dig it in a week I'll try the G502, but... I love it so far!

If for some reason I don't dig it in a week I'll try the G502, but... The G403 reminds me more of the Deathadder, honestly. I know that the MX518 shape basically is what Razer was attempting to improve with the DA, but this feels like the same thing in the other direction, ending up one more step removed from the 500/518/400/etc shape. This is very subjective, but that's why I landed on the 502 instead of the 403. Both are great mice though!

Goo, I have a feature request! Can your next G502 equivalent have a removable and replaceable USB cable? It seriously has been the only point of failure of my Logitech mice for the last 10ish years and I'd love to just buy a cable rather than a whole mouse. Somewhat related, I finally bought 3 additional G502s before they leave manufacturing and go from $50~ to $250.

Bought the Logitech G440 mouse pad to replace my ancient Icemat. It's kind of hard for glass to wear out but people complain about hearing it on voice and I'm not sure the rough surface is actually helping me at all. I was thinking about the Corsair MM600 but it is ugly and expensive.

Just wondering a couple things. I'll preface my questions by saying I have a Rival 300 and really like it. (1) I'd like to know if anyone has tried the newer TrueMove3 sensor, and how it compares to something like the 3310? (2) Specifically if anyone has used both the Rival 300 and 310, how do they compare?

MOUSEPAD TRIP REPORT Logitech G440 Hard pad, polypropylene, polystyrene core and rubber backing $25 Surprising no-one it's a solid, firm pad of medium thickness. It's described as low friction and it really achieves that compared to a cloth pad but it has a rough feeling that I wasn't fond of. It's also noisy with my G502 mouse. I didn't hate it but the surface feel was not what I'm after. Asus Whetsone Cloth with silicone backing $39.99 Medium thickness, not floppy like a cloth pad but rolls up. Slightly smaller than the Logitech pads but with a difference in texture due to the raised pattern. The pattern gives you feedback as you move the mouse so the lower friction compared to the G240 is countered by the feeling of the ridges. This has a really nice premium feel but begs the question, why the gently caress would you make a textured mousepad as your only option? Is there really a market for a bumpy pad? This would be lower friction than the G240 but I don't know . If they made this with a smooth surface it could be a winner. Price is excessive for a cloth mousepad but it claims to be spill resistant and easy to wash. Logitech G240 Cloth with rubber backing $20 Slim, cloth pad. The only thing to really talk about is how slim it is and how good the surface is. The lack of depth works against it giving no cushioning to your wrist and there's no reinforcement to the edges, with such a thin mat I think it's going to fray and wear at the edges over time. Make it 3mm deep and I wouldn't have much to complain about. In the end the G240 wins out due to the surface. I can live with the lack of depth. I would be interested in trying the Corsair cloth pads but I'm already wasting money returning two pads. Carecat fucked around with this message at 11:04 on Apr 22, 2018 |
