2.2 Mouse Settings
Set mouse DPI and USB report rate properly using mouse manufacture software.
For some mouse, DPI and Report Rate can also be set by buttons on it.
4000-16000 DPI and 250-1000 Hertz are recommended.
Higher DPI brings faster turning,
And higher USB report rate provides less delay,
but unstable signals might also be caused when a mouse is set to its MAX.
So, 5000DPI and 500Hertz Report Rate is a safe starting point.
2.3 Console and game settings
Prepare Consoles:
For PS4:
please change controller's communication method as shown below.
Settings - Devices - Controllers - Communication Method - "Use USB cable"

Prepare Games:
Our goal is to get the highest sensitivity for gamepad right stick to harness all the
potential of your game, for our mouse movement is mapped to the right stick.
Please do put this in mind.
There might be many settings in a game, which will show their effect on mouse control.
Here are some recommendations:
Sensitivity = MAX
It is called by various names, such as Look Sensitivity,
Aim Sensitivity or just Sensitivity.
It's recommended to set all sensitivities to MAX.
Acceleration = MAX (unless otherwise specified)
Response Curve = Default
Dead zone = Default
Our Engine is trained on this, so please keep it as default.
Button Layout = Default
It’s better to leave Button Layout as defaults to avoid confusion.
