For no reason other than my sheer annoyance when using a Mac occasionally, I wrote a small program for Mac users to get rid of mouse acceleration.

Installation:

* Download the executable for your architecture, or compile your own
* Set executable permissions on the file (chmod a+x mac-cel)
* Open “System Preferences”
* Open “Users & Groups”
* Click on your own username
* Add the executable to “Login Items”
* Restart your Mac

Repository: https://github.com/cdown/mac-cel
Download:
https://github.com/downloads/cdown/mac-cel/mac-cel-1.0 (32-bit)
https://github.com/downloads/cdown/mac-cel/mac-cel_64-1.0 (64-bit)

Thanks a lot to Arie for helping me out with crazy OSX stuff since I have no Mac with me at the moment (which I’m not complaining about :D).

Thanks man, gonna download it right away. Btw, any idea if there is a good fps config for osx?

Edit: Sure hope I’ve got x64 on my macbook, else I might’ve fucked somethin up

Edit2: It seems I don’t have the permission to open this file, I dno how to get the permission.

In your terminal, cd to wherever the executable is, and then execute chmod a+x mac-cel (or mac-cel_64 for 64-bit version)

Yeah okey… still don’t know jack SHIT about this OS even tho I’ve had this computer for a while…

edit: also… cd? wat

I went to the link u sent me mate, why did u edit ur answer ^^

Also, I sure hope this is x64, given that I have the latest macbook pro and like 4gb of ram I’m just going to assume that I do.

Edit: Well it seems it didn’t work, still got mouse accel on…

Did it say anything when you ran it?

Uhm, a lil’ window popped up and said some random info and then Process Completed.

Edit: Don’t worry, it’s most likely something I did wrong.

Quoted from octochris

Yeah, run it from the terminal and tell me what appears. I tested it on 10.4 and Arie tested it on 10.7, I guess it’s possible I need to fix some stuff on other versions.

Okey… so I do that whole process again or what?

Just add me on steam and lets talk there, the whole posting thing is really annoying.
