But input lag.
oak gyro
Can you rephrase that sentence? I don't understand.
unborn spruce
Well, a corded mouse versus a wireless mouse both have VERY little input lag. This has been proven with slow mo cameras time and time again.
At least if they're good.
Already my G Pro pushes what humans can really do without going completely nolife and training for ages, then there's 2 upgraded versions of my mouse that're even better.
Is there even much of a difference anymore? One that matters at least.
oak gyro
I've tried wireless mice and honestly they feel basically the same as a proper wired mouse setup.
unborn spruce
Pretty much.
oak gyro
I prefer wired mice as well because they are generally lighter.
unborn spruce
Idk. I see so little reason to buy a wired mouse anymore.
oak gyro
With a mouse bungee and enough slack I can't tell the difference. They feel the exact same in use.
unborn spruce
Using a powerplay mat a G Pro doesn't even need batteries or power storage, and you can cut away a LOT of the internal structure if you really want.
Like...
I could spend 300 euro on a wired mouse made of carbon fiber, or I could get a powerplay, lightspeed, and modify it.
One of them requires I use a cable, the other doesn't and I then don't have to deal with a cable.
barren pewter
or...you could buy a viper mini, realise you'll gain little spending more, and leave it at that
my $0.02
unborn spruce
Yeah, I have enough dignity to not buy Razer things anymore.
oak gyro
You're missing out on so much. The Kaunkoenig M2K has the best switches on the market, 8000hz polling rate and is made of carbon fiber.
barren pewter
"best switches on the market" is extremely subjective
unborn spruce
^
What makes them the best?
oak gyro
They are the only switches I know of that have exactly 0 debounce whatsoever due to their design.
barren pewter
polling rate beyond 1000hz means fuck-all to me, and construction also matters little to me
unborn spruce
Which does...?
ornate cedar

What makes them the best?
They should be suitable to do a little thermonuclear trolling
barren pewter
it just needs to be robust in terms of durability
ornate cedar
<@!873823530180022332> What do the switches actually do?
Actuate
oak gyro
Debounce delay is the reset time for the switches.
Most switches have a 4ms debounce delay, some have higher or lower.
unborn spruce
Ok yes, but practically what does that even change? Your muscles can't actuate that fast.
oak gyro
The Omron switches they use has no debounce whatsoever.
unborn spruce
You're already limited by your body.
barren pewter
debounce of 0ms is impossible with contact based
unborn spruce
150ms or so latency at esports levels.
barren pewter
you'd need contactless at that point
ornate cedar
barren pewter
prevents chatter
unborn spruce
Even if your entire body was made of twitch fibers you're still limited before the mouse is. Why exactly do we gain a benefit from spending so much on a mouse like that? @oak gyro

The largest latency in our reaction time is neurons on their delay
unborn spruce
The largest latency in our reaction time is neurons on their delay
No shit, everyone already knows that.
But the muscle fibers themselves are already bottlenecking what a mouse can do.
oak gyro
I did tell you that I care about performance to the point of insanity did I not?
unborn spruce
Yes, but a mouse isn't giving you any benefit.
unborn spruce
Your body is the limiting factor, why spend money on something that isn't the bottleneck?
Could be a 50 billion polling rate mouse and would still make zero difference.
oak gyro
I mean, ignoring the switches entirely I still care a great deal about the mouse weight and 8000hz polling.
unborn spruce
Polling rate means literally zero things, my dude.
barren pewter
Your body is the limiting factor, why spend money on something that isn't the bo...
cybernetic arm with reduced latency compared to organic arm = better investment for competitive gaming
unborn spruce
Not until you're not so heavily bottlenecking it.
The weight? Fine sure. It's not giving you much but sure.
But the polling? Bruh.
oak gyro
It shaves off over half of a millisecond in latency and greatly improves the consistency of mouse tracking.
unborn spruce
You can't even use 4k polling without specific muscle training so your retarded biology can move that fast.
8k might make the mouse better, and it does.
But your primitive organic flesh can't actually use it any more than you can use your current mouse.
You'd need more twitch fibers first.
More twitch fibers and you'd also need to memorize actions instead of having to think of them.
barren pewter
cybernetic arm with reduced latency compared to organic arm = better investment ...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
unborn spruce
Once you have that down there's something to be said about upgrading, but not before it.
@oak gyro Oh and if you care about peak performance you might wanna check out RawAccel.
Everyone craps on mouse acceleration, but making a custom curve is incredible when you do it right.
oak gyro
I already know about it.
oak gyro
Not a chance. I hate mouse acceleration.
I know it can be useful sometimes but I completely hate it.
ornate cedar
I like it
unborn spruce
I know it can be useful sometimes but I completely hate it.
That's a rip.
Pushed my accuracy up by a good 35% over a few days of AimLab.
It's a matter of building a curve that's right for you.

@unborn spruce any cheaper sub 100 alternative total to at least dip my feet into the waters
unborn spruce
I'd stay well away from USB if I were you.
small comet
i mean ik i need a stand or arm still
unborn spruce
XLR is so much better.
You'll need an arm anyway, so you may as well also get an audio interface.
I suggest Scarlet Solo.
small comet
ik but i wanna dip the toes first before making rather large investments
unborn spruce
Not a great way to do that, tbh.
A lot of decent XLR mics don't also support USB.
And the ones that do are typically super expensive.
(Blue Yeti Pro, for example, waste of money)
small comet
it can be pure usb
unborn spruce
Then you'd need to buy another mic anyway which is more expensive.
Are there no second hand NT1s near you? That's a super common mic.
small comet
and im willing to take the loss of replacing it but i dont see a point in buying big wig setup if i dont even know anything about if i like it or not
unborn spruce
NT1s are XLR mics, so you'll also need an interface.
Try a Scarlett Solo Gen 2.
Those are a LOT cheaper than a Gen 3.
But a decent USB mic? http://www.rode.com/microphones/nt-usb
unborn spruce
Ah yeah.
small comet
psure the current gen one costs 104
unborn spruce
Honestly, you don't need an NT1000, really no.
An NT1 would be enough, just maybe you find a miracle NT1000. :P

Eeeehhh.
Not excellent, not by a long shot.
But it ain't bad, not even close.

Just that it's a mic and mount, all you need is an arm, interface, cable, and maybe a ball adapter.

And I mean you can have the cable and adapter for like... 20 euro.

It is. Especially since it's an SM6.
I personally use an SMR, but the SM6 is no slouch.
Was a hard choice to make.
unborn spruce
Fuuuck.
My SMR is from these dudes, didn't know they had an ebay page.
Cable, mic, SM6, and a pop filter.
You'd just need arm and interface for a budget recording setup.

unborn spruce
Hmm.
small comet

unborn spruce
Ruthless economy. :D
unborn spruce
Best way I've found is to imagine your voice through the best mic you have but clearer.
Closer to what it's like in person if you to the thing that lets you listen to your own voice.
A good mic should be neutral, capturing as close to the original sound as is physically possible.
unborn spruce
There's a thing you can do with your hands to listen to it.
I forget, but you can prolly google.
unborn spruce
No shock mount included with the NT1000, no?
small comet
i included the currently price reduced sm6
last time i posted the 450 or what it was
unborn spruce
Ah right.
I getchu.
Hmm, right.
So the NT1 versus NT1000 is that the NT1000 sounds brighter.
small comet
ya
unborn spruce
:O
small comet
but 430eur
unborn spruce
Right, so here.
This kind of setup is about the best thing you can possibly get for the cash.
The step above an NT1000 is like... well over a grand.
This would absolutely work for recording or streaming, but it's obscene overkill for anything else.
I got it because it was insanely cheap, I wouldn't get it if I wasn't intending to do something professional.
small comet
ya so
unborn spruce
Just know that it's an NT1000, it has insane resale value.
So worst case you can easily sell it.

unborn spruce
Solid state batteries, obviously.
Or, if you’re feeling like chemicals, flow batteries.
small comet
how did we arrive at switch batteries specifically
unborn spruce
Avanna wanted to know how to prolong it so I directed toward how to buy spares.

Next level starts.

I think that strat only works when the Dock detects the battery is fully charged
orchid prism
They cut power usage by up to half....
And fixed hacks for the time being 😄
fading spade
yeah... that's the downside!
orchid prism
Lot harder for the common owner to do though - And aren't they super hard to source now?

I just noticed
it's called Battle Ye
Battl Eye?
idk
BattlEye: The anti-cheat shit standard
fringe salmon
what other anti cheat would you prefer then?
novel umbra
what other anti cheat would you prefer then?
eac is SLIGHTLY better
but all the big ones are shit
they basically only get used because they are big
since suits want that
young crow
eac isn’t slightly better
novel umbra
young crow
lol
young crow
eac is significantly better
young crow
of course everything is going to be bypassed
fringe salmon
disagree, I know many people including myself that hate eac because it very often causes file corruption so you need to validate/redownload the entire game
so I take BE over eac any day
novel umbra
and soon metin 2 pservers have one of the best anticheats on the market
made exclusively to shit on bad botting programs
but overengineered af
fringe salmon
dont care if it has a 100% detection rate if it constantly causes me to not play because the game wont start
novel umbra
because the people that make it know anticheats
ornate cedar
Anti-cheat tends to be more of a burden than anything
novel umbra
eac and battleye would be WAY worse if they weren't told how an anticheat should even work
novel umbra
Anti-cheat tends to be more of a burden than anything
a good one wouldn't be
young crow
define “a good one”
novel umbra
one that doesn't cause crashes
and sips performance while sitting idly because ring0 bs
like the valorant one
fringe salmon
a good start is having a decent game that doesnt make majority of important code client side
makes having good cheat protection 100 times easier
young crow
ring0 has nothing to do with increased performance
novel umbra
ring0 has nothing to do with increased performance
ye obv
but a bad ring0 ac permanently sips power
well
all ring0 ones do essentially
but they don't have to be noticable amounts
young crow
vanguard

valorants anti-cheat got its ass cheeks opened in 4 days or something
young crow
that’s just bad coding
novel umbra
ik
aka
a bad anticheat
I get that they want ring0
and it makes sense to do
their implementation was ass
ornate cedar
A lot can be prevented with the server running sanity checks
young crow
wat
novel umbra
tarkov is the best anyways
even if you get flagged by their ac
they need to manually approve all bans essentially
young crow
incorrect
novel umbra
since they apparently get a lot of false flags
young crow
well tell him he’s wrong as fuck
novel umbra
young crow
i got banned for a detected feature at 3 am on sunday
if they manually approved that
damn, can only applaud their hardworking employees
novel umbra
you might just have set off too many flags
novel umbra
all acs flag
young crow
it makes zero sense to flag for literally 2-3 detected features
fringe salmon
novel umbra
it makes zero sense to flag for literally 2-3 detected features
well typically flagging would be followed by an instant ban
small comet
@young crow did u keep ur UC post count btw?
young crow
sadly no
small comet
dammit gotta save up some more then
ornate cedar
Valve's VAC doesnt insta ban when flagging accounts.
young crow
well typically flagging would be followed by an instant ban
flagging is one thing and just banning is another really
novel umbra
Valve's VAC doesnt insta ban when flagging accounts.
it shouldn't
ornate cedar
Intentional design. Makes it hard to know when you triggered the ac
young crow
and very effective
fringe salmon
I think you agree on the same thing it should be but the wording was weird
small comet
im still beaned on forza
novel umbra
dunno of anyone recently myself that got a VAC one
small comet
sad times
novel umbra
I think you agree on the same thing it should be but the wording was weird
think so as well
on the AC site banning works VERY similar to flagging
and a ban in csgo for example is easily avoided
just don't play enough to get in overwatch
young crow
overwatch doesn’t really work right now
novel umbra
and don't use a cheat shittily enough to get detected automatically
at least that is how it used to be
dunno if that changed
ornate cedar
Trust factor handles most of the brunt anyway
small comet
na just turn on rage hacks
novel umbra
trust factor essentially puts you in hvh lobbies at some point by now
young crow
trust factor is also broken
novel umbra
na just turn on rage hacks
doesn't even matter
small comet
silent aim, anti aim, spinbot, wallspeck
novel umbra
overwatch depends on x numbers of reports in y time
small comet
everything
small comet
smart aim? who needs that
young crow
overwatch depends on x numbers of reports in y time
yes but they broke it
novel umbra
you can only get 9 reports a game
so if you play a game a day
you wouldn't get in overwatch
young crow
they broke literally everything except for their aimstep check which they implemented literally everywhere except prime
novel umbra
with trustfactor most hackers would either get bored or stomped by hvh hacks at some point though
young crow
trust factor doesn’t work
young crow
it doesn’t have problems, it literally doesn’t work
small comet
i mean on my hacking account i loved HvH the most
young crow
i have 15 banned accounts at the very least and steam is perfectly aware of them
i have green trust factor
young crow
brother, when i tell you it doesn’t work i mean the system is literally broken
doesn’t exist
novel umbra
young crow
i’ve been told this by many csgo cheaters also
novel umbra
I know people with low trust factor
but only because of toxicity
only know hvh cheaters myself
young crow
you will literally never get banned if you rage wingman/comp with prime
even 100 games a day
at least until they fix it, at least
novel umbra
young crow
at least x2
novel umbra
then their entire report system is broken
or people just don't bother reporting anymore
young crow
that’s what i’ve been saying for the last 15 minutes
valve just doesn't give a shit anymore
and battleye is another kind of retarded garbage
bastian seems to only care about internal cheats
since you guys love talking about tarkov
let me tell you something
you can ban other people just by knowing their windows activation key
ornate cedar
Nikita hates fun?
novel umbra
you can ban other people just by knowing their windows activation key
yea
similar with battleye
not windows key
young crow
yes but it's horribly easy with tarkov
novel umbra
but stupid shit like their hardrive
young crow
literally a POST request to an api endpoint
novel umbra
ornate cedar
Thats some r* level security
fringe salmon
Wait gimme a windows key from some tarkov player so I can activate my windows 
(Dont)
novel umbra
do you think the average tarkov player has a retail windows game
young crow
fringe salmon
If the game is on console probably not
novel umbra
young crow
this is the component of the GetHwIdV1 return value they ban
novel umbra
tarkov on console might be the worst thing they could do
fringe salmon
trim rock
So wouldn't that immediately ban a lot of players if they use the generic hardware ticket activation key whatever thingamajig
novel umbra
do you honestly believe eft devs give a shit about anything
ornate cedar
Wait, what if you dont have a licence?
fringe salmon
Also it shows you are a cpp dev and not c# regular with that code lel
young crow
pretty sure microsoft still gives you some sort of a key
novel umbra
ye
orchid prism
Wait, what if you dont have a licence?
You always have a serial key in Windows.
It's just a generic one till you activate.
