only in Q2 is my mouse so slow - it does not respond to the setting in options that should speed it up. I move the mouse clear across the mousepad and the crosshair moves about an inch or two on screen. This pretty much makes the game unplayable...
Anyone else experience this? It is especially irritating to me since I always set the mouse so fast I barely have to think about it to move!

I think Apple changed mouse settings in 10.1.3. Have you noticed that the mouse speed is faster while you're playing around on the desktop? I have a feeling all the games such as Quake 3, RTCW, Quake 2, etc. were using some method to change mouse speed for their game...thus, when Apple changed mouse speed at the OS level, it broke mouse speed inside games that relied on the old way of getting the mouse speed.
The above probably made no sense to you...I don't know enough about this so this is only an assumption.

You know what? Ignore everything I just said...you're not even using 10.1.3 are you?
You might be better off asking Fruitz of Dojo (the porters of Quake 2) for help.

I actually am using 10.1.3, but have not updated my sig yet. The mouse movement was slow before, so I don't think that is it. Also, I have been using TurboMouse to satisfy my 'need for speed' on the desktop - maybe that causes problems?
Mouse works fine in Quake 1 BTW.

I found the 'sensitivity' setting in the config file and cranked it up from 11 to 30. all fine now.
