Having trouble gaming
Having trouble gaming
I am a c5 quad and I purchased the SmartNav EG because I saw guys with my injury playing COD and overwatch with little difficulty. Also the website said the SmartNav would work with any game that uses a mouse. Now seeing people with my injury level playing FPS games got me really excited because I loved playing these games before I got hurt. So I thought I had to get this product because not being able to play has been really tough on me.
Now after receiving my SmartNav, it works great as a computer mouse but as soon as I start playing FPS games it just stops working. It works really well in the menu but when I get in game it stops. I tried every setting and still the same result. The only thing that works a tiny bit is putting it on relative. This allows me to move the cross hair, but the movement of the cross hair is so choppy it is impossible to use. I thought maybe it was the speed, but after trying every possible settings combination it still ended with the same result.
Can anyone help me out? I looked all over the internet but I couldn't find an answer to my problem. If I can get this to work... oh man will it make my year.

Re: Having trouble gaming
Overwatch and CS are the ones I am the most upset about... Not only are they the ones that I want to play the most, they are the 2 games I've read people have played successfully with your product. I don't understand why it won't work for me...

Reese,
I'm setting time aside tomorrow to do some testing with Smartnav in a multitude of games. Hopefully I will be able to recreate this issue and then find the best solution.

Re: Having trouble gaming
Thank you very much for your help. So I tried a couple more things that could be of some help to you while you try to find an answer to the problem. I got it to work a bit better but not enough for it to be playable. What I did was in the windows mouse settings turn down the pointer speed settings to pretty much zero and turned off enhanced pointer precision. Next I turned down the speed settings in the smartnav to 1 and turned up the in-game mouse sensitivity to the max. This allowed me to move the crosshair without it glitching if I moved my head slow, but when I tried to move my head faster the problem occurred again. If I increased the pointer speed in windows or the speed in the smartnav control panel faster even just 1 notch the problem would occur again no matter how slow I moved my head. Hopefully this new info is of some help in your attempt to find an answer.
Re: Having trouble gaming
hi im nate im a c4 quad. here's a few hints for smartnav gaming
1 set you're mouse override delay to 0. in your smartnav behavior options
2 make ur mouse smooth if you're movements allow it. if not then set it to desired smoothness
3. try games in borderless windowed , window and fullscreen.
hope that helps i will be monitoring this and see what's up
