Mouse-Feel Playing at Standard Resolution on Widescreen

[spikoman69]

Is it just me, or when playing a shooter on a standard resolution (Due to games lack of widescreen support), does the mouse feel like it moves very awkwardly? I noticed this when playing unreal tournament 2004 since it doesnt have widescreen resolutions (Although I have added the values to a text document to set it to 1440x900).

possibly. Havn't actually noticed it myself because i play games that support widescreen. But i suppose it makes sense, kind of.

I think its because the various engines have different properties for controlling the crosshair...

like when I went from cs 1.6 to css, I couldn't aim for the first week... then I went to quake which had a totally different aiming mechanic and screwed me over once again

I have never had this problem, and I still play UT2k4 pretty often. Could be a mouse problem, not a game problem.
