1. What is your Windows mouse pointer speed? One notch to the right
2. What is your osu!'s mouse sensitivity? 1.2x
3. Did you enable the "Precision Mode" in osu! ? no
4. What is the DPI of your mouse? (or what DPI you are using when playing?) To be honest, no idea. The place in my control panel that is supposed to give me that information is blank
5. What kind of mouse you are using? Mouse that came with asus essentio desktop
6. What is your osu!'s screen resolution? 1280x960 windowed
7. Do you prefer fullscreen or windowed mode? windowed 100%. I can't play 1920x1080 in osu
8. How do you hold/grip your mouse? claw
9. What is your mousepad? (or where do you place your mouse?) some $3 mousepad I got a big lots years ago. Smooth and plastic
10. What are your problems/issues while you're playing? (e.g can't spin well, that jumps, streams...) streams, but that's more because my fingers simply cannot move fast enough. otherwise, nothing to report really

Actually now that I think about it, osu! does some weird stuff when I play with the mouse at 1.4x or higher. Stutters, goes further than supposed to. Probably not the mouses fault though.

You can easily measure it.

1) Set things so there's no acceleration or multipliers on the cursor (windows to its default (the center tick), precision off). Make sure that there are no windows open that might grab and change the speed of the cursor if you move across them.
2) Measure how far your mouse moves when you move the mouse from one side of the screen to the other in inches (left-right or up-down). Try to move as straight across as possible and be careful to stop the mouse exactly when you get to the farthest pixel.
3) The DPI should be equal to (resolution along the axis you chose / inches the mouse moved) rounded to the nearest 100 to account for inaccuracy in measurement. For example, if you're using a 1280 pixel wide screen and it takes about 1.25" to move left-right you probably have a 1000 DPI mouse.

I used this to work out that an old mouse I have is 400 DPI. It was also handy with my current mouse, because the R/G/B LEDs that mark the DPIs (800/1600/2000) were clearly different than the instructions on the package claimed... so I tested to get the order and to verify that the DPIs were correct. It was a cheap mouse, and it works well enough, so I'm not complaining.


In fact, a convenient way to combine and express many of these numbers is by the distances the mouse has to move left-right and up-down (although that's meaningless for anyone that uses precision mode). This gives a simple measure of a player's preferred dexterity level, and can be better compared with a tablet player's box preference.

Currently, my mouse settings (no precision, naturally) give a 0.71" x 0.53" (18mm x 13.5mm) box (but I'm messing around with it again).

You said you played on your table. Grab a cloth/rubber surface to play on (mouse pad were designed for mice).

What about mouse precision mode? What is that exactly? I couldn't find any difference using it or not, or maybe i'm just insensitive or what?

This is sometimes called mouse "acceleration". It is useful for people that want to do precision work (low speed), but still want to be able to move between windows easily (higher speed), without needing to have or use something like a multiple DPI mouse. The way this is done is by keeping the cursor speed steady at the level set when the mouse is moved slowly, but when the mouse is moved quickly, the cursor movement is accelerated... meaning that the distance required to move the cursor across the screen varies depending on how fast you move the mouse.

I'm not 100% mouse-only player but I hope no one minds ._.

SPOILER
1. What is your Windows mouse pointer speed?
6/11

2. What is your osu!'s mouse sensitivity?
1.0x

3. Did you enable the "Precision Mode" in osu! ?
Nope

4. What is the DPI of your mouse? (or what DPI you are using when playing?)
Between 750dpi-900dpi, mostly 800dpi

5. What kind of mouse you are using?
Logitech G400 (newer model without prediction)

6. What is your osu!'s screen resolution?
1366x768

7. Do you prefer fullscreen or windowed mode?
Fullscreen

8. How do you hold/grip your mouse?
Claw grip (only when I'm playing mouse-only, otherwise it's inbetween claw and palm)

9. What is your mousepad? (or where do you place your mouse?)
SteelSeries QcK+ (was Razer Goliathus Control)

10. What are your problems/issues while you're playing? (e.g can't spin well, that jumps, streams...)
Streams, I can't aim properly while clicking alternately ;_;

Also I'm surprised how some people here who use gaming mice didn't put both Windows and osu! sensitivity to default. They could've just adjusted their dpi sensitivity instead :/

1. 6/11 (default)
2. Various, from 0.7× to 1.2×, depending on the mouse I use, the surface I'm playing on, and osu! screen resolution.
3. No, it messes my mouse movements. I also don't turn this on at Windows settings. There's a case where I moved my hand outside the surface because of this. lol
4. Various, from 800 (cheapo unbranded mouse), 1000 (cheapo Logitech mouse), to 1800 (my bro's Razer Abyssus mouse).
5. See answer 4 above.
6. Various, often playing on 1024×768. Sometimes had to use 800×600 and 640×480 when I'm playing on crappy PC and/or having small resolution monitors.
7. Windowed mode most of time, Fullscreen on cases where beatmap's Circle Size is so small.
8. Palm grip.
9. Various, from wooden table, crappy "Microsoft" mousepad, my bro's Razer Goliathus Ω (Control edition) mousepad, to Internet Café's Razer Mantis (Speed edition) mousepad.
10. As you can see above, it's pretty hard to play on various conditions from time to time. I seriously need to get myself a decent mouse and mousepad, especially since I travel a lot... :(

It's cause the previous mouse I used was a tiny ass wireless mouse, so when I switched back to a gaming mouse, it felt so weird and the Sensei has sort of huge curve at the top of it x__x. So I'm not used to it. Besides I play KB + Mouse now. o: .

whatever it's good for a mouse only player you guys should ask at http://osu.ppy.sh/u/CC_kakusi even tho probably he's just using the same standard setup since he started
sorry if i'm a bit OT but i've never see a mouse only player playing this good and with this high bpm , i got demotivated :cry:

1. What is your Windows mouse pointer speed? Default (6?)
2. What is your osu!'s mouse sensitivity? 1x
3. Did you enable the "Precision Mode" in osu! ? Yes, I think. No wait, it wasn't. NOW it's enabled.
4. What is the DPI of your mouse? (or what DPI you are using when playing?) 500. I started with something like 1600, reduced it to 800 and then this. It's the only way which lets me control the cursor properly. Streams are much easier with it.
5. What kind of mouse you are using? Logitech G9x.
6. What is your osu!'s screen resolution? Usually, it's 1024*768
7. Do you prefer fullscreen or windowed mode? Windowed, but fullscreen's a fun gimmick and my new build can actually run the game at full screen.
8. How do you hold/grip your mouse? I try to palm grip with the huge ID grip, but if I'm struggling with a map, then I'll change to the small precision grip and claw my hand like I have leprosy. It usually ends up being both though.
9. What is your mousepad? (or where do you place your mouse?) Hard pad--SteelSeries 4HD. Shame it kills my mouse's feet, but it feels just right and never moves.
10. What are your problems/issues while you're playing? (e.g can't spin well, that jumps, streams...) Usually jumps which are unreasonably large and also spinners. Moreover, maps which don't have enough breaks and use too much of one part of the screen make me run out of space very quickly.

2. What is your osu!'s mouse sensitivity? 0.7x
3. Did you enable the "Precision Mode" in osu! ? Nope
4. What is the DPI of your mouse? (or what DPI you are using when playing?) 1800 dpi
5. What kind of mouse you are using? A4 X7 series, XL750-MK. Cheap enough and fun :3

7. Do you prefer fullscreen or windowed mode? Windowed
8. How do you hold/grip your mouse? Claw grip
9. What is your mousepad? None. "Bare" desk works better w/laser mouse from my experience.
10. What are your problems/issues while you're playing? Hand/finger cramps on overly long and fast streams (matter of training), streams with notes placed too far away. Jumps stopped being a problem after fine-tuning dpi (was 2000).

...I guess I'm too far from top to rely on my advice :D

A question: Is wireless worse, in what aspect? i have only played osu with wireless so i cant compare, recommendations to improve are welcomed :)
Wireless mouses aren't for gaming, let alone osu!.
What were you thinking?! :o
Wireless mouses aren't nearly as agile as wired ones, nor are they as responsive.

Did some changes and started to practice mouse-only today so

1. What is your Windows mouse pointer speed? 6/11
2. What is your osu!'s mouse sensitivity? 1.0x
3. Did you enable the "Precision Mode" in osu! ? No
4. What is the DPI of your mouse? (or what DPI you are using when playing?) http://puu.sh/GW1R (previously 800dpi)
5. What kind of mouse you are using? Logitech G400
6. What is your osu!'s screen resolution? 1024x600 (previously 1366x768)
7. Do you prefer fullscreen or windowed mode? Windowed (previously Fullscreen)
8. How do you hold/grip your mouse? Palm (previously inbetween palm and claw)
9. What is your mousepad? (or where do you place your mouse?) SteelSeries QcK+
10. What are your problems/issues while you're playing? (e.g can't spin well, that jumps, streams...) Still streams but getting better at it, and accuracy. New problem is that my mouse tends to hit the keyboard which is just next to my mousepad while playing and getting used to moving my whole arm with this new sensitivity.

1. 6/11, "Enhance pointer precision" is disabled (this setting gives me a 1:1 mouse movement)
2. 1.6x
3. No
4. 400 dpi maybe? I have a cheap mouse at the moment
5. Standard USB mouse
6. 1366x768
7. Full screen
8. Claw grip, too bad the mouse is too small
9. A cheap stereotype mousepad, there's a wrist pad on it, but i don't use it
10. Mouse: Thou shalt not pass!, yep, small cheap mouse is my problem when playing, sometimes it make me miss a jump, not sliding properly when streaming etc.

I'm currently saving money to buy Elephant Dragunov or Razer Abyssus if i can. I just need a better mouse.
