Valve are not going to help you disable the biggest revenue from their game. :(

#20 Windows 8.1 and TF2 / Steam in Q/A Help
mixtape-LexI've only experienced slight stuttering/refresh rate problems with dual monitors (144Hz + 60Hz) in windowed mode. Full screen works fine.
Thats because windows 8 forces v-sync if you play windowed since theres no real way to disable areo in it with the way metro works afaik.

I've never experienced this problem, I've disabled vsync for TF2 via nvidia control panel

#13 Zowie EC1 eVo stuttering when rocket jumping in Hardware
pine_beetlePlease tell me you do not have smooth mouse enabled in your in game options.

It happens on my desktop too as stated in the op so it's nothing to do with my game settings

#8 Zowie EC1 eVo stuttering when rocket jumping in Hardware
Neil_AnblomeI just left my G500s because the cable problem kept occurring. So I thought I'd check out the rave of Zowie
:D Don't get me started. That's the reason for all my mouse changes! Think I went through 4 mx518's and 3 g400's which were all replacements from Logitech before being given a g400s by them. Sometimes they've lasted a couple of years, sometimes a couple of months. So fucking annoying, especially after buying a mouse bungee and it making fuck all difference.
My g400s just packed in at the end of August from general use (very rarely have time to play games nowadays) and I was unable to get a replacement because Logitech have changed their policy and now only offer replacements if the original mouse that went faulty was purchased under 3 years ago. Shafted me because my latest mouse was a replacement of a replacement of a replacement of a replacement etc. I've been told the cord problem has been completely eradicated with the latest range of mice so I've been eyeing up a g402. Reckon I'll wait till I can commit more time to gaming than a couple of hours per month before I throw money at a mouse though.

If you're intending to stick with the EC1 then there's really no other option but to get yourself a single coloured mat, but I do know of people who've reported the same problem using one of these also. I don't see the point in throwing yourself off kilter and increasing your sensitivity/DPI just so a mouse that is nearly twice as expensive as most Logitechs can cope.

EDIT: Just been speaking to a friend about your problem and he swears the latest version of the FK, FK1 has addressed the problem. If you are truly fucked off with Logitech you should maybe give it a whirl.

I've never looked at the G402, it actually looks very good, it looks impossible for that cable to be broken. It's very similar to the G500, but has a fixed cable.

I've decided to get another G500s and treat it like a baby. I was very happy with the EC1 until I came across this problem, I've heard they're doing a reboot of it so they might fix it. Spent £150 in the past week on mice, just guess I've had bad luck! I just want to not have to worry about it, I have to restart my PC if my G500 disconnects because it totally locks up and I can't do anything to reset because it locks up my keyboard too. So annoying in scrims.

#6 Zowie EC1 eVo stuttering when rocket jumping in Hardware
Neil_AnblomeUsed Logitech for well over 10 years (mx500 > mx510 > mx518 > g400 > g400s). Between the g400 and g400s I tried an EC1 and an FK and had the exact same issue, someone mentioned that ZOWIE mice didn't like multi-coloured mats (have a Talent) and I wasn't prepared to use any other mat so I went back to Logitech and ordered a g400s. Think the 9HD is also multi-coloured so you could try it on a single coloured mat!
My advice would be sack ZOWIE off and stick with what you're used to, especially if you're a low sens internet boy. Any mouse that costs as much as they do shouldn't be kicking up problems.

#4 Zowie EC1 eVo stuttering when rocket jumping in Hardware
wallyI have the same mouse/mousepad combo and the EC1 seems to have a hard time with handling fast movement on the 9hd on lower sens's. Try increasing the DPI, that seemed to help mine at least

Changed dpi to 2300 and lowered sens in-game. Same problem :(

Probably gonna have to get a cloth pad

trenchalso, why 5/11 windows pointer speed? ;p 5/11 will probably not do harm, but we all know 6/11 is the only truly flawless setting

I just made the change from 400 dpi on a Logitech G500. So lowering Windows speed by 1 made it almost the same to what I was used to, it seems to have no effect in-game

#1 Zowie EC1 eVo stuttering when rocket jumping in Hardware

Just got a Zowie EC1 eVo, and it stutters when I flick to rocket jump. I do a really quick snap motion when I RJ. So when I flick right, there is no problems, but when I flick back to the left, it stutters and makes it impossible to do a proper rocket jump. It also happens while sitting in desktop if I do the right motion. I'm making sure I'm not lifting up the mouse so the sensor is always in contact

Windows 8 64-bit
2.6 sens in-game
raw input on
450dpi
1000 Hz polling rate
5/11 Windows pointer speed
Mousemat: Steelseries 9HD

#1 Recommend me a Zowie in Hardware

I've loved my G500/G500s for a long time, but I've gotten sick of replacing it for the 3rd time because of cable issues. I just bought the G502, expecting an upgraded G500s, but its far too small for my palm grip.
So, I was thinking about getting a Zowie mouse because people seem to love them so much. I like a big and heavy mouse so I've been looking at the EC mice.

Which Zowie mouse do you recommend for a palm grip?

#131 Logs.tf match stats in Projects
Zza_I would really love it if you added STVs to the logs.

pretty sure that would require logs.tf to host .dem files. that would require a massive amount of storage
