i am afraid that i might not have properly explained in my previous post so ill try to elaborate.

if we are speaking pure motor skills that statement would be objectively false (check the summary section of the link, if you dont want to read it all)

if you are looking at it from a " i dont need to get better" perspektive that is fine aswell not trying to talk you into trying other settings. perfect settigns dont exist use what feels good to you.

i°m just mentioning this so you dont waste your time training a certain way when another one is proven to be effective https://themerkle.com/wp-content/uploads-new/2020/09/Motor-Skills-Are-Strengthened-through-Reconsolidation.pdf

 

Cool, I might try it, I might don't, I choose to stick with my settings for now, thanks for your suggestion again.

Possible bug in the current version of the calculator - please see attached image.

The FOV value seems to be inverted. 'In-game' tries to use raw degree values even when multiplier is selected, and 'Config-file' uses the multiplier even though the actual value in the .ini is in degrees. Something seems to have inverted the correct behaivour.

config file : grafik.png.7116871d6d69cd93a4bd98f45b2ee6a1.png uses the multiplier

in game:  uses degrees but is messed up slightly so it says multiplier due to the fact that it is innacurate and the calculator has to compensate

 

i am somewhat certain that this has been mentioned somewhere within teh 900 ish mesages in the apex thread

------------------------

if you want an example for this

grafik.png.cdced7fb424c4fbbc9775de1fe163537.png

set auto fov to this and comapre in game 90 which should be the exact value

Ah so listing 'multiplier' for the in-game value is intentional to illustrate that the in-game value is still not an explicit vfov/hfov value. Makes sense. Perhaps a note to that effect could be added in the FOV notes section for the Apex profile. 

yeah something along the lines of it trying to use hdeg 4:3 in game, yet missign their target in the accuracy department and thus dpi wiz gives you the actual number

grafik.png.aeb615dd38b0df62855ba13285124fdd.png

------

might not only serve illustrative use but also make calculating the actual fov easier since youd end up with wrong numbers if youd set it to 4:3 as intended

but this is me just interpreting pretty sure this was discussed some time a few years ago couldnt find the actual reasoning after a short search so this is mostly from memory.

yes a note letting you know that could be good for those new to the calculator and its functions

---------

to be fair i generally recommend just using auto fov grafik.png.30817254888060ba55d0205ecc2690de.png

pretty much serves as a set and forget utility if you have a preferential fov setting youd like to use across games with different fov`s

Pre-sale question: Would the advanced settings allow me to play games like Apex at higher fov, and other games, say Destiny 2, which doesn't have an FOV that goes past 100 or so, and get a more consistent experience? I don't know if I am asking that as clearly as I could.

Destiny 2 may be a bad example because it doesn't have consistent zooms across so many weapons, Universal Soldier Aiming co-effients, or fine sens controls.

Like let's say even for hipfire, I can match them for a 360 in the free version, but I don't want to play Apex at an 84 FOV. Could I adjust Apex's sens to feel more consistent with D2's FOV? I'm not sure if you always want hipfire to be the same regarless of FOV or not.

For aiming, given the wide range of scopes in D2 or any other game that doesn't have seperate sens for different scopes, and the fact that they don't match any of the magnifications of other games, is it a futile effort to try to improve the experience with the calculator?

there is a method you can use where you give up some screen realestate for an identical 360 distance experience with slightly differing fovs

this will give you black bars to match the focal length and actually works

Is there a possibility to have the calculator go to 3 decimal places for in game, because for sensitivities below 1 e.g. 0.5 the game can take up to 3 decimal places if you don't type in the 0 at the start e.g. .555 instead of 0.555

I can't make it do 3 decimals for just values below 1, so it will probably cause some confusion for users when the sensitivity is above 1 and output is more decimals than the game supports. I think for these cases it's best to just use the config file calculation instead.

So when adjusting in the config file, do you know if the sensitivity will stay the same every time i launch the game? Because when using the in game settings and assigning my own specific sensitivity, the game will always round up the sensitivity after I close and relaunch the game. I would love to try and avoid that if possible when using the config file.

so we know mouse_zoomed_sensitivity_scalar 1.0 is 0% MDV.

Is there also an universal number for 100%MDV or do i have to change it for everye scope seperatly?

always depends on a games default scale so unless a game lets you change the coefficient liek battlefield or cod you wont have a uniform number for all methods of scale

Yea but 1 = 0 mdv so there should be one for 100 mdv also? Or i dont understand the system

"mouse_zoomed_sensitivity_scalar = 1" is an identifier specific to Apex. Basically, the name is something that the developers came up with and the units are whatever made sense to them at the time.

It could pretty much be anything.

Valve has a similarly named option for team fortress 2, but 0 mdv is some weird shit like 0.794 or something.

Overwatch's variable has a completely different name.

I'm not sure if dpiwizard came up with "MDV" theirself or where that term came from. I'm not sure if there is any sort of industry standard name for what this website is dedicated to.

I came up with that specific term, but focal length and coefficient was already terms used in the industry. I needed to separate vertical from horizontal though, so I used MDV and MDH.
