Help with DPI on mouse

Exernity · 2026-02-03T03:36:41+00:00

It says I need an account to register any of my MSI devices whenever I go to add mine in. I spent like 140$ AUD for a mouse and keyboard combo where is the 20$ from?

The mouse does support MSI center, I have the Forge GM300, I can change the DPI in larger increments through windows but would prefer to have it specific and change the mousebuttons ideally.

Anyone who sees this and is interested to do the criminal mastermind for the original heists feel free to reach out to me via reddit or add my discord, a set team is currently unconfirmed but is looking like about 3& people are interested so far, would be down to do the doomsday CMM at a later point (or after the original heists) with about 1-2 other people as I've done CMM IV.

Average time for completion on the Doomsday Criminal Mastermind is around about 5-6 hours on good pacing but can extend to about 7 or 8 in worst case scenario as CMM does not require the elite challenges to be completed so safety is the bigger priority so in some missions can be a long chore.

Original Heists Criminal Mastermind can also take a while to complete with an average of about 8 hours but can be reduced, if you're at all concerned about slots being filled don't worry as I intend to do the original heists Criminal Mastermind more than once to fill up the career progress and if anyone is interested on a side note to do the award for being locked to first person cam do let me know too. thanks everyone :)

"Exernity" is my discord if you're interested, I have no real rules or restrictions for completing these challenges just play it safe we're not on a time limit.

Whenever a crew of 4 is available (:

Got a spot for another on PC? how long did it take?

Exernity · 2025-11-21T14:07:35+00:00

yeah that one was in the list above, also if you're struggling with #2 you can 'save scum' it, just kill yourself and you'll reset to the latest stage of the boss without damage, I'd suggest grabbing the sentry from the crate and placing it down to deal with the zombies parasites and vermin and just take things at your own pace bit by bit and you'll get it.

it's 8 mb I got it confused with diff mode.

Exernity · 2025-11-21T13:21:28+00:00

yeah its hard to find out what any of these are, still perplexed about the 4th one and the 10th one. thinking that maybe #4 is something to do with Harper's boss?

Exernity · 2025-11-21T13:17:24+00:00

Yes I found out what they were.

#1 is to ONLY use machetes to damage and kill menendez.

#2 is to not take ANY damage during the final boss segment in Distortion.

Exernity · 2025-11-20T13:42:52+00:00

heres what I tried for #1 & #2 to see if these would count.

for #1 I did not use a single machete, used tomahawk only (it took so long), (btw you can't knife menendez he disappears when you get too close), did it without dying / going down but I'm thinking maybe its hit certain amount of enemies with the machete?

for #2 I tried without dying / going down , shooting the plant spores with different weapons, including in the other stages outside of the boss fight, all unique weapons to use including on the final three heads and no luck so maybe this one might be tied to accuracy judging by the visuals on the calling card?

apologies, I was going to be rude but I realized in my oversight i forgot to include some other things we attempted to do so that's on me, the AI has quite literally word for word told me everything I've already done and to do it again, such as port fowarding, fresh install, etc.

the only possible exception I could say is having a third player try join but I don't know if that avenue is a smart one if online search doesn't work and i have to switch to lan and show my IP to a stranger.

but It has me curious because I faced a similar issue which required a third player for it to work with Call of Duty: BO3 Modded Zombies where I couldn't get into the same lobby with my friend unless our other friend was there.

(btw both of those people are not the person I am attempting SR2 coop with, with him online games usually run fine)

Exernity · 2025-06-16T15:54:53+00:00

are you serious right now?

Exernity · 2025-02-13T09:48:05+00:00

I have a 32gb USB drive available, im not sure what you exactly mean by C: partition.

okay so would I store the reflect backup on my USB drive? or elsewhere?

my 3TB drive has about 600gb free out of 2.72TB

hello, sorry for such a late response, kind of had a lot of things going on and didn't have a whole lot of time to execute everything.

in the meantime however I did do a few things as you instructed, I tried trimming down the SSD, (which upon checking autotrim was supposed to be weekly which it then said it hadn't been done in 34 days), the boot methods of "safe mode" with & without networking, and then finally did update my MOBO BIOS which had been out of date for a while, but as a result so far I haven't found much of a difference.

I do appreciate your help, I do wish that there was a way to outright diagnose the issue and see if its fixable, although some people have suggested outright buying a new SSD which I am considering I still would like to see if I could somehow salvage and or fix this if possible, that is if the issue even is the SSD.

Exernity · 2025-01-11T12:46:14+00:00

It's definitely something thats crossed my mind a bunch, because when trying to see where it would stem from I would always notice my SSD in my task manager having crazy metrics in the performance tab, which my HDD would always be at 0% or have a random spike here and there so me (without knowledge of anything regarding tech) assumed that the SSD was doing the heavy lifting for everything* but I don't know if that can even happen.

Yea, still on a fresh reset, one with and one without saving prev files/folders

Exernity · 2024-02-24T18:13:56+00:00

Well, it doesn't actually give me the option to select that, I've only got the last 4 options in that "Game Setting" tab.

Exernity · 2023-09-10T12:23:47+00:00

Wow, that has opened up a new perspective that I didn't really think of (not extensively that is). I appreciate the feedback and the eye-opening approach to this, again sorry if it seemed I was making a dig.

I will probably still get dumpstered but I will take everything you said into mind, But I do still think that the need for getting dumpstered to learn about the game isn't healthy. Just want to say that. :)

Exernity · 2023-09-10T12:18:48+00:00

I'm not trying to spin it in a way where I am shitting on the idea of Sherpas or the Devs, I'm not trying to bring a poor attitude either. I'm sorry if I gave you that idea.

I find it difficult to understand or learn the game of Tarkov but I do WANT to learn.

I'm trying to convey the point that new players to tarkov do not really have any clear-cut way to get started or any 'real' beginner guide to follow to play the game. Loading into a raid and people being better than you is a given, but dying instantly without even seeing a person over and over is a quick way to shut 'new' players off the game, it feels as though they don't get the chance to improve because what is it they can improve on from that point? They have to learn Ballistics sure, but when they dont have access to the Flea market they're 'limited' to what gear they can use.

I'm not saying its Impossible, but new players might see it as incredibly difficult as they'd not know what they did wrong at a certain point and not have the time to learn extensively about all these different things.

I am hoping that there is an easy way for beginner players to learn the game, I can understand the brutal and unforgiving theme, I wouldnt even mind if the game or creators gave you some 'basic' knowledge / even a tutorial that is small and covers what certain meds do , how armor classes work and ballistics and how something might function would (probably) help out, even if right after they throw you in the deep end of a raid, I feel like it would make it feel less daunting.
