[Unexpected cause] Mousepad, desk, skin, humidity

Separate area for niche lag issues including unexpected causes and/or electromagnetic interference (ECC = retransmits = lag). Interference (EMI, EMF) of all kinds (wired, wireless, external, internal, environment, bad component) can cause error-correction latencies like a bad modem connection. Troubleshooting may require university degree. Your lag issue is likely not EMI. Please read this before entering sub-forum.

[Unexpected cause] Mousepad, desk, skin, humidity

Post by cursed-gamer » 02 Sep 2024, 08:10

1. I removed my mat mousepad and played just on desk. I immediately noticed, that my mouse movement became super precise and I had to lower my sensitivity by 0.5 on 400 dpi. No more muddy feeling. Mouse pads are very good static generators because of vinyl and while you move your hand on it, it gets charged quickly.
2. Dry skin - creates good conditions for static build-up.
3. Low humidity - creates good conditions for static build-up.
4. Ground your desk, mousepad, chair. You can use clamps for better mounting.

Check it out by yourself

PS. Just one anegdote for you. I read somewhere that one console player had issue with his pad. It was going off or players in FIFA were doing some weird stuff randomly. He found out, that the cause of his problems was carpet. While playing he unconsciously scrubbed it with his feet and build up lots of static on his body. After removing carpet all his issues were gone. I buy it because this can be proven by physics instead of daily regedit windows fixes that do nothing.

Honestly u may be right about the static one way or another

Ive been noticing if i literally put the controller down for 5-10 seconds and pick it back up, i will have aim assist and can shoot straight for a clip or 2. After shooting longer than that it starts getting stiff and all symptoms come back.

This would also explain how i traveled far out of town and played on a friends set up and had the same problem. While im not there he plays completely fine absolutely no problems.

Could it be my clothing holding too much static? Lol like seriously do i not use enough dryer sheets?

Yes, don't wear polyester clothes, moisturize your hands, use plastic mouse pad and you will see the difference immediately. There may be much more static on your body than you think.

can you play this https://aiming.pro/quick-play (the hexakill one) with and without the changes to see if it really makes that difference?

or any other aim trainer/way to test, but I really would like some data or videos

me and others already tested these static related things, nothing worked so far, I tried electrical resistance gloves, anti-static gloves and anti-static wristband, I know people who tried grounding mat, and even playing while stepping on the grass. if the problem really is static, then at least one of these things should have worked

I'm one of the people who could confirm the problem is the body so I'm not trolling, but I do think that this could be a placebo or just a coincidence, if your results really show that this actually make a big difference, then we should investigate it more to know if it is really static or if it is another thing that changes something in our body or in the room/pc

he's right, it's all checked by a tester for $20.
