XIM4 Advanced Settings and other great info "How To Guides" (Updated 7/31/17)

i love the xim4 for the fact i can now use an xb1 i never could use the controllers but to have ballistic cuvres am i right in thinking basically thats a hack? don't cuss me out i just think thats a little too far if it is i could be wrong just asking the question....

All Ballistics do is adjust acceleration within the boundaries of the games look mechanic. This offers us options to try and smooth out movement, which is mostly beneficial for games that utilize timed acceleration.

I personally like ballistics to help with Aim Assist, why? Because a slow down occurs when AA kicks in. This slow down is not really an issue if you play at a high sensitivity. But it can be troublesome if you like playing at lower sensitivities as the slow down can often create a feeling of a barrier bubble around the player as the velocity drops. Keep in mind this velocity drop around the "Hit Box" is dialed in for a controller user. This means the slow down occurs just before your crosshairs are actually on the target. That's necessary due to the acceleration and lack of precision the controller user has to deal with, "Slow down early or Overshoot the target". Using a device as precise as a high DPI mouse, we don't need nearly the amount of "Slow down" as a controller users does in order to stay on target. So typically, we're not always trying to enter the hitbox at the same velocity that the controller user is due to this added precision. Another words, we're utilizing the full range of motion to a much higher degree then the controller user does. So this velocity drop can sometimes feel a bit extreme for us if our velocity is to slow when AA kicks in. This can sometimes create the effect of your aim getting stuck just trailing the player.

That's why I always say, "Learn to play as fast as possible with XIM if you want to be able to take full advantage of the device".

Ballistic curves are really just a crutch for players like me that can't play as fast as needed to optimize the velocity drop that occurs when AA kicks in.

Are they a hack? Absolutely NOT, IMO.

Hey RML,
I'm fairly new to all this xim stuff, I had a splitfish frag fx for both ps3 and 360. I agree with everything you say about the macros, however i am struggling with my g700s and sony nav.

The issue i am having is speacialist activation in black ops 3. Is there a way to bind L1 and R1 so that i can achieve this instead of having frag or equipment? Make a button do both and remove the functionality of the individual buttons themselves?

Hey KINGxKOBRA,

First of all, Welcome to the forum! 

Secondly, Yes, you can absolutely do this and you can still keep separate buttons for frags and equipment.

Here's how:
Open Xim Manager - Load BO3 config - Open the Config - go down to "Buttons" - Expand, this will open up your "Primary" buttons, here you can set Frag and equipment to whatever buttons you want - Go to the bottom of the Primary buttons and you'll notice a "Secondary" option - Open this and then assign RB and LB (Frag and Equipment) to the same button - I would use a button that isn't being used for anything else, but is easily accessible. Now that button will activate your super power when pressed. I use scroll up for this on the mouse. So I assign both RB and LB to scroll up under secondary button binding.

Done!

Well, way less complicated than I was expecting. Thanks.

Hola me podrías explicar que es el ADS? Tengo problemas en Battlefield 1 y el movimiento del ratón. Uso un logitech g403. Mi problema es que siento que el movimiento del ratón empieza más tarde que la acción. Tengo la sensibilidad al máximo. Los DPI del ratón son 4000. Gracias!!

Hola, ADS es una abreviation de Aim Down Sights. Puede que necesite ajustar su sensibilidad para ADS y HIP hasta que el movimiento se sienta más suave para usted.

Espero que eso ayude.

Hey all, Looking for some help or info. I'm using my xim4 on the new COD on PS4. I've set up a custom config to get a faster turret turn speed in vehicles and was wondering if you can add the options to set up buttons and the analogue stick so I can use my keyboard to drive the tank. Unfortunately, the game does not allow remapping of the pad for vehicles.
