First off, I don't know what to put this under, so if it's in a bad place mod move it please.
I'm big into cs:go, Counter Strike Global Offensive for people that don't know, it's a big sensitivity game. Meaning to hit the right place you have to have the correct sensitivity to be able to hit great. So i decided to try this in minecraft.
There's a way to find good sensitivity in every first person game including minecraft. You have to find your complete 360 rotation Sensitivity then add 5% divide 5% and do a ton of different math, I don't want to get into how.
But when I try a complete 360 spin on my mouse pad (Meaning I move my mouse from the left side of my mouse pad to the right side of my mouse pad and try to get back to the same block I was when I started I cannot.
I have realized my direct 360 spin is between 47% which is a 350 spin and 49% which is a 370 spin. So obviously it's 48% sensitivity. But when I try to put it on 48% it just doesn't allow me. So I came up with the idea that minecraft just can't support full circles at all. But maybe it's my hardware.
I don't know much about this but I am hoping someone knows. My mouse is set on 800 DPI I have a E-Blue Cobra mouse and My mousepad is a Memory Foam Mousepad with Wrist Rest by allsop. I would love to put my sensitivity on 48% so I can have precise movements, if anyone can help me here it'd be highly appriciated
EDIT: I talked to a few friends, and they had the same issue, not being able to go on 48% sensitivity, it just skips it. I know now this isn't an issue with my hardware, but why does this happen and how can I fix it?
Well, I did some looking around and did some math, and found I needed to be in the options.txt folder to change sensitivity from out of game. So I found the 49% sensitivity which is 0.2535211
and the 47% sensitivity which is 0.24647887
So I found the middle number between them which is 0.249999985
Now, if I calculated that all correctly 0.249999985 should equal 48%.
When I inserted it and saved it changed it though. back to the 49%.
I cannot do 48% at all. I'm going to try doing other things but I doubt they will work.
This actually is an issue with your hardware, but essentially it's one that affects everyone's hardware. Computers just have a really bad time of it when it comes to ultra-precise floating-point math, after a certain number of decimal places accuracy starts to go out the window until finally it just flat-out just guesses. Most applications don't really need that level of precision so they generally don't notice, but every once in a while you get something like this that intrudes on everyday life.
Have you tried fudging the number you think you should be at, so that it's closer to the 47 or 49% side?
Explain what you mean there? Like instead of putting it at 0.249999985 put it at maybe 0.25 or 0.247 if you mean by that, yes, it either goes one way or another. I went to a help site and they said it's just an issue with minecraft in itself and I can't really do anything about that.
