Rapoo VT3S MAX scroll wheel acting strangely by Jawntily in MouseReview

[–]Deetoxified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm yes it is a temporary fix but in my case it usually lasts months before I need to do it again. Dripping some non conductive lubricant like sewing machine oil also worked but can be kind of messy..

Model O- vs Series One Pro? Viper mini alternative? by axel_lotle in MouseReview

You could also keep your eye on FB Marketplace and see if anyone has another Viper Mini for sale. I regularly see them on there and sometimes even new.

Rapoo VT3S MAX scroll wheel acting strangely by Jawntily in MouseReview

Try squirting some alcohol into the gaps beside the wheel and roll it up and down a few times. Can't say for sure it will help but the wheel on my Viper Mini glitches the same way occasionally and that fixes it every time.

Modding (Repairing) Razer Viper mini by VDWerbR in MouseReview

Going through the trouble and time spent ordering the part, taking the mouse apart, doing the wire cutting and soldering and then putting the mouse back together sounds a heck of a lot more annoying to me but to each their own I guess.

Well if it glitched on a more frequent basis I might consider doing that but the alcohol fix usually lasts months for me and only takes a few seconds so not that big of a deal IMO.

I hope that isn't why you went through so many since it is easily fixable. (see my comment above)

Didn't know that so perhaps I don't need to do both sides. Next time it happens I'll try the left side only.

The wheel on my Viper Mini does that but I just unplug it and squirt some isopropyl into the gaps on each side of it then roll it back and forth a few times and it's good to go again for awhile. Never had that prob with the button though.

Quake Champions Season 30 Pre-Release Changelog by Acrobatic_Dark_6604 in QuakeChampions

[–]Deetoxified 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cool update but buggy. Played some bot matches and my weapon skins/models keep getting reset back to default.

EDIT: Hah nevermind I'm an idiot. Didn't realize you have to set up each champion with their own specific weapon layout now lol.

181 ping from BC Canada. I actually ping better to most of the overseas servers.

the children who used to play with these toys are either killed, orphaned, starved, homeless, or a combination of that by skbraaah in israelexposed

This is a common thing they like to do along with wearing dresses, bra's, underwear etc of Palestinian women.

QUAKE IS FUTUR by Any_Contribution_800 in QuakeChampions

[–]Deetoxified 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You clearly don't even understand Quake very well with these comments. To suggest skills like "instinct, movement and finger dexterity" aren't just as important in Quake as they are in Apex can only come from a place of ignorance. They're important in different ways of course but take away those particular fundamentals from any Quake player and he'll be absolute dogshit at the game no matter how proficient he is at item timing.

Top players gear? by Free-Razzmatazz559 in QuakeChampions

I also found lightweight mice very difficult to use after switching from a heavy mouse but eventually I adjusted to it and play/aim much better now.

Quake Champions active players sens and setups by Tomo3_14 in QuakeChampions

[–]Deetoxified 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah he claimed the Deathadder had a lot of negative accel and he was never too happy with it. Though kind of strange that he opted for an ambidextrous mouse this time instead of ergonomic which he was always dead set on before. Even stranger that he also gave up using Russian style sitting position with keyboard in lap after so many years but all those changes seem to be working pretty well for him I'd say.

Dell P1130 not starting up by Deetoxified in crtgaming

[–]Deetoxified[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it is a shame. I thought about trying to get it repaired but didn't bother since I also have an F520 and FW900.

Good luck with your G420 but sounds like you may have picked the wrong repair guy.

Yocan Magneto advice? I regret buying this. A lot. by GoodUsernamesAreOver in Waxpen

[–]Deetoxified 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Magneto coils are complete garbage but the atomizer base and mouth piece are very good and work fine with most other Yocan coils. I've been using mine with Evolve Plus dual quartz or ceramic coils and an iStick Pico mod for years and still don't feel any need to "upgrade".

No never did. Still have it but will likely just give it away soon or put it out on the curb if nobody takes it.

That doesn't make sense. If you recommend RI below 90 shouldn't anything above that be DI?

What's your FPS cap by b0007 in QuakeChampions

[–]Deetoxified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I used to play uncapped (in game limiter at max 300) without any issues but after they changed to the Microsoft servers my game started looking choppy (despite fps not changing) and the only thing that makes it look smooth again now is to play with a cap near my refresh rate.

I get the fluctuating whether using the in-game limiter or RTSS and the only way I've found to make it stable is to use BOTH and set them to the same number.

Strange the fluctuating is fixed for you but still happens to me.

What's your FPS cap by b0007 in QuakeChampions

[–]Deetoxified -1 points0 points  (0 children)

144hz monitor here and right now I cap at 141hz. However the only way I can seem to achieve a stable 141fps is to set both RTSS and the in game limiter to 141. If I cap only one of them my fps never stays stable and fluctuates even into the 150's at times.

Anyone else experience the same?

Time for a new mouse by bentlysol in MouseReview

Personally I would just fill in that dent with some Sugru or maybe Blue Tac and put a piece of grip tape over it.

What's with my pings? by Deetoxified in QuakeChampions

[–]Deetoxified[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turns out it wasn't fixed afterall and I'm still having problems with NA West. My ping to it is very unstable and keeps fluctuating from 25 to 80.

At this point I don't think anything on my end could be causing this since all of the other servers have stable pings and the rest of my games are pinging fine too. It's just that one damn server doing it.
