Post Fri Feb 13, 2004 3:18 am

the usual cleaning the rollers if its a ball mouse
it could be a worn mouse pad ive got one that is as smooth as anything and is as a result useless
best advive get an optical mouse they arent that dear and well worth the cash
if it is an optical mouse erm its possibly nacked

its not the mouse unless a mouse that worked PERFECTLY on other comp breaks just before i plug it into my comp, and then when put back into other comp just before it repair's itself.........I wish it was the mouse

thanks for trying to help,but thats not the problem

try upping the sensitivity of the mouse within the options of the game itself. I ride mine on full all the time.

I get laggy mouse do to that my onboard g.card sux its makes the mouse movement heavy.

what I did helped a little to solve the problem (beisde getting good g.card or getting more memory and buying optical mouse)

1) reducing the game visual quality to 0%
2) shuting down all unessasary programs/prosseses (norton unvirus is heavy change it)
3) restarting my comp every 2 hrs of mass PvP battles
4) become good with missles since I can not aim so good to use guns
5) Know when to drop the mines or use mass drop of cheap mines
6) clean the mouse from time 2 time (as they said)
7) sometimes its not the mouse/comp fualt the server/other players is lagging
8) computer need better cooler the CPU is hot and overloading!
9) try using/adding 8.33 guns and better with the highest project speed possible.
10) use addware removal programs to find and eliminate unnessasrary (trash) backgroud programs.

I do not remmeber what also I do but I will try, in every week I find someone who gives me tips how to make the computer faster, there is so many ppl with old computers and its interesting that most of them are one of the best pilots and some of them can not even aim straight lol

you eather buy new g.card (even new comp if u got old one), or just deal with it you can still play FL and have alot of fun, unless u wana be the best FL pilot ever!

I could give you guns combonations that will help or what ships to use, but since its not a spoiler forum you better email me or post there.
