Mouse sensitivity in periscope view

jroland · 06-02-22, 09:30 PM

Hi,

I'm looking for some help with the mouse sensitivity. In game the mouse pointer speed is fine in map mode an when moving the cursor around, it moves at the normal sluggish rate that I've set in Windows. However, once go into periscope mode it is ultra sensitive. So sensitive that I have serious trouble aligning vertical and horizontal lines on the target for the statimeter even in perfectly calm weather.
It's also very sensitive in the 3D view inside the sub.

I can't find anything in the game settings for mouse sensitivity. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'd love to hear an answer here too if there is a solution. Another pet peeve of mine playing SH4 since it came out.

I can give you a patch that allows different settings for mouse speed.
It's just a small change to parts of the TychoSh3Patch.

Settings are...............

- 2x slower
- 3x slower
- 4x slower
- 5x slower
- 6x slower
- 7x slower
- 8x slower
- 9x slower

I'll need to know what version of SH4 you have and if's it's from Steam or other then a clean version.

Hi I'm running 1.5 with the U-boat add on. Steam edition. Currently I'm running just vanilla but have TMwtw as well.

Thanks!

I'll need a copy of the SH4.exe from the Steam version to write the code.

jroland · 06-03-22, 04:31 PM

Thanks, sent you a PM.

Sent a Steam patch link to jroland.
If anyone else is willing to test it? PM me for the link.

Will have a Stock SH4 version later today also.

Jeff,

Thanks, the patch worked like a charm!

Jeff-Groves · 06-06-22, 01:18 PM

I'm doing a new patch with a different program.
It will work for any version of SH4.exe and you won't need to edit any files!
It should also work on any SH3.exe!

You'll be given the option of which speed setting you want and it will do the rest.
It does a backup of the SH4.exe automagically so no need to worry about that.
One can also remove the settings very quickly to try a different setting.
