XIM APEX Discussions / Xim Apex best performance on PC

« on: 09:09 PM - 11/17/21 »

Can someone summarize how to use Xim Apex on PC? Specifically for games that support DS4 and Xbox controllers (like CoD for example).

I'm curious about using 360 vs One vs Core Xbox controllers, and DS4 V1 vs V2.

I have a DS4 V1 that I can't get to work on Vanguard, and am considering which XBox controller to get to work best in its place.

Any difference in performance between these controllers when using Xim Apex on PC? If not, I'll just get the 360 Wired since it is the cheapest.

Is there a reason this controller doesn't work worth xim AT ALL?

On PC for example, even with a genuine XBOX controller in the 3rd slot, the PowerA controller won't work (trying to use it as a nunchuck, so I can have the paddle)

I used to have similar issues with the Sony Nav, it was caused by a faulty cable. I would try a new cable on your controller and also for the nav.

Would you like your account renamed instead? I've heard back that this will change your name in quote headers too. If so what name would you like?

We can delete the account too but your name will still be quoted.

My account has already been renamed, and it did not change my quoted name in my threads, which is what is popping up. I think the only solution is to delete the threads I've started where people quote me the most.

After a dozen monitors (zowie, Dell, Acer, aoc, BenQ GL etc) I've settled on this one for PC and competitive CoD. You don't need 240Hz.

The problem is the quotes rather than your own posts. Unless they're manually cleaned on a per-post basis, you're stuck with it :/

99% of the quotes are on threads I started, 80% of them probably on my fortnite building scripts. Those are the posts that are on the first page when my username is googled.

Deleting posts from your account should be viable, but I don't know how effective this will be without manually pruning all of the quotes that include your username. That stuff won't magically erase.

Wouldn't it be easier to just start a new PSN or XBL account?

The username is linked to my gamebattles, CMG, UMG, steam, email, and irl name and all the accounts that come with it. I want to maintain what I've built on all of those and my relationships with people I play with and continue to grow them, while erasing my naive use of that name on this forum.

It's no one's fault but my own, and I'm hoping broad strokes can fix my mistakes.

Thanks, I'll check on this. I think there's a quick way to remove all of your posts but it might involve deleting and recreating your account. Is this something you would be interested in?

If deleting my account will remove all my threads, I'm all for it. I can make a new one.

What? Just leave your mouse at 1000Hz and play. Do you notice a difference?

Titan 2 > onboard memory > xim link

I put the link in last place because it is plagued with issues of disconnecting, stuttering, and it's clear there is lag introduced.

I've never had issues with disconnecting or stuttering. Every device inline with your xim will introduce lag, T2 included. How much lag is introduced by Xim Link is probably dependent on your PC hardware and drivers.

Many macros that run great on the titan 2 fail to function through the xim link. Delays such as 40 ms and under seem to cause the link issues where the titan breezes through any delays as low as you need.

This is a well documented side affect from AutoHotKey.

Due to the granularity of the OS's time-keeping system, Delay is typically rounded up to the nearest multiple of 10 or 15.6 milliseconds (depending on the type of hardware and drivers installed). For example, a delay between 1 and 10 (inclusive) is equivalent to 10 or 15.6 on most Windows 2000/XP systems. To achieve a shorter delay, see Examples.

This page has examples on how to use DLL calls to allow for more accurate delays:

Code: [Select]

SetBatchLines -1  ; Ensures maximum effectiveness of this method.

SleepDuration := 1  ; This can sometimes be finely adjusted (e.g. 2 is different than 3) depending on the value below.
TimePeriod := 3 ; Try 7 or 3.  See comment below.
; On a PC whose sleep duration normally rounds up to 15.6 ms, try TimePeriod:=7 to allow
; somewhat shorter sleeps, and try TimePeriod:=3 or less to allow the shortest possible sleeps.

DllCall("Winmm\timeBeginPeriod", "UInt", TimePeriod)  ; Affects all applications, not just this script's DllCall("Sleep"...), but does not affect SetTimer.
Iterations := 50
StartTime := A_TickCount

Loop %Iterations%
    DllCall("Sleep", "UInt", SleepDuration)  ; Must use DllCall instead of the Sleep command.

DllCall("Winmm\timeEndPeriod", "UInt", TimePeriod)  ; Should be called to restore system to normal.
MsgBox % "Sleep duration = " . (A_TickCount - StartTime) / Iterations
If you need a Xim Link script with more accurate timing, this is what you need to use. It is a common oversight in AR or rapid fire Link scripts (including some I have previously written).
