Raw Accel Changelog – Latest Updates, Features, & Improvements

v1.6.1

  • Fixed a crash in the GUI that happened when the chart range was invalid.
  • Improved accessibility for keyboard users.

v1.6.0

  • Dropped support for Windows 7 and 8.1.
  • Added new cap modes:
    1. Output Cap Mode: Sets a limit based on the output relative to the gain switch.
    2. Input Cap Mode: Sets a limit based on the input speed.
    3. Both Cap Mode: Sets a limit at a specific point for both input and output, ignoring acceleration and scale.
  • Introduced a device configuration menu with options for:
    1. DPI Normalization: Normalizes both acceleration and sensitivity to 1000 DPI, changing input speed from counts/ms to inches/second.
    2. Disabling Standard Adjustment: Turns off the usual counter-based speed adjustment and uses a constant based on polling rate instead.
    3. Disabling the Driver: Option to disable the driver for selected devices.
  • They changed “Vertical Sensitivity Multiplier” to “Y/X Ratio,” adjusting how ratios are displayed.
  • Changed power mode: now can be capped (it was ignored in version 1.5) and works with the new cap modes.
  • Added an output offset parameter.
  • The weight parameter has been removed.
  • Broke JSON configurations.

v1.5.1

  • Fixed a problem where setting the Lp norm to a value less than 2 would cause an error message.

v1.5.0

  • Added a “streaming mode” toggle for overlaying charts using the Chroma Key in OBS.
  • Introduced new acceleration modes: lookup table and jump.
  • Enabled anisotropy and weight options in by-component mode.
  • Changed the gain cap unit from input speed to gain.
  • Updated names for acceleration parameters:
    • “Natural” is now called “decay rate.”
    • “Motivity” is now called “growth rate.”
  • The parsing of region-specific numbers has been eliminated; the decimal separator will consistently be a dot (‘.’).
  • The weight parameter has been removed for all acceleration modes, except for the power mode.
  • Negative acceleration can still be implemented by adjusting the cap or limit within the range of (0, 1).
  • The sensitivity offset, natural gain mode, and cap/offset options have been removed. In their place, a gain/legacy switch has been introduced, which offers different behaviors depending on the selected mode.
    1. Linear/Classic:
      • Gain: Sets cap style to gain.
      • Legacy: Sets cap style to sensitivity/legacy.
    2. Natural:
      • Gain: Same behavior as the previous “natural gain” mode.
      • Legacy: Same behavior as the legacy natural mode.
    3. Motivity:
      • Gain: Functions identically to the behavior in version 1.4.
      • Legacy: Adjusts sensitivity to match the gain of the original function.
  • The capped power mode is broken, and the cap is ignored.
  • JSON configurations are also broken.

v1.4.4

  • Some bugs are fixed.

v1.4.3

  • Improvements in GUI error handling are made.

v1.4.2

  • Issues with single device-only mode are fixed.

v1.4.1

  • GUI bugs are fixed.

v1.4.0

  • Added anisotropy options for the whole mode, check the updated guide for details.
  • Improved graph accuracy, especially for slower mouse movements.
  • Introduced raw accel angle snapping as a hidden option available only in the JSON settings.
  • You can now select a specific device using its hardware ID.
  • Displays a custom message if there is bad input.
  • Made many other small adjustments and fixes.

v1.3.0

  • Made fixes and improvements to the user interface (GUI).
  • Support for Windows 7 will be dropped by April 2021.
  • Added version information embedded in the program.
  • Introduced directional multipliers for better control.

v1.2.1

  • A speed cap feature has been added to control maximum mouse speed.
  • There is now a menu option to disable auto-apply settings when the GUI loads.
