If you are plagued by "mouse spin," there is hope. It's impossible to simply turn down the sensitivity, too, so it just renders all of these programs completely unusable. Imagine if you were trying to control a 3D camera with a mouse that is literally exponentially more sensitive than your usual mouse. The freakout is often referred to as "mouse spin" and it's essentially a hypersensitive mouse issue. Further, it affects many non-game 3D programs that still have a 3D camera, such as Blender. This issue extends to first-person shooters, MMOs like Star Wars: The Old Republic, World of Warcraft, Everquest, Guild Wars, etc., and 3rd person 3D games like Grand Theft Auto, The Witcher, and many others. The issue is that any game with a 3D, mouse-controlled camera absolutely freaks out when running in Parallels. Some of those people use Parallels to do so and some of those people also play Windows games through Parallels. Many people who builds Hackintoshes like to also run Windows. I'm posting this in hopes that if someone else runs into this issue, a search will direct them to the solution, as I personally searched for many, many hours trying to fix this without any satisfaction. I love this forum and this thread is to archive a solution I came across for a problem I found absolutely maddening. Sometimes I have problems with my Hackintosh and whenever I need help, the folks of tonymacx86 invariably fix whatever I messed up. The line isn't there and you will have to add it.Building a CustoMac Hackintosh: Buyer's Guide In any event, the fixed variable works to adjust the insidious "I'm suddenly looking down at the top of my toon's head" problem, as well as others above. ("Pitch" = depress and hold mouse button 2 and then move the mouse in order to change perspective from higher above and behind toon (third person view) to lower, or vice versa.) This seems less an issue of mouse pointer speed and more one camera pitch speed. The variable setting in (on my computer), C:\This PC\Users|Owner|AppData\Local|SWTOR\swtor\settings\ YOURLEGACYNAME_Account.ini called (default) Controls_CameraRotationSpeed = 3.09999990463 had to be reduced to 0.57 in order to prevent instantaneous camera excursions that force the screen view into full top down or under floor up, when adjusting camera pitch. INI file is located in ( C:\Users\%USER%\AppData\Local\SWTOR\swtor\settings \%ACCOUNTNAME%_Account.ini ) However, I have already overwritten my previous settings with the in-game settings slider. Changing the slider and applying in game will overwrite this.
You can get slower camera rotation speeds by modifying the file directly. When you set the camera rotation speed slider in game to 0%, it goes down to "0.1" at the minimum.
