  • This seems to suffer from what a lot of vibe coded projects suffer from, which is just a whole lot of unnecessary text everywhere. I find one shot outputs always have a lot of jargon, extra "micro copy" and displays the same information multiple times in multiple places. It makes it difficult at a glance to understand what you're looking at.

    I'm not sure what in the training set causes the models to do this, even in my own experience I'll be specific about the feature I'm building and the model will add an unnecessary status message for no reason.

  • very cool. project, will evaluate this in detail.

    one note, on the "Feel your sensitivity." page, it says " raw input off — OS mouse acceleration is active. Your browser couldn’t give OpenAim raw mouse input, so your OS acceleration curve is reaching the game: the same hand motion turns further when you move faster, which no aim training survives. On Linux: set your mouse’s libinput acceleration profile to “flat” (unaccelerated). Chrome and Edge deliver raw input directly."

    but my mouse is definitely unaccelerated (confirmed via `xinput list-props pointer:"Logitech PRO X 2"`). i am unsure if this leads to erroneous results when aim training.

    i'm on: Chromium 150, linux, x11 kde plasma.

  • Interesting project! I am relatively skilled at FPS with a mouse, but would like to improve with my trackball (so that I don't have to change my setup when playing an FPS). This could cone in handy, though I imagine that there aren't multiple "mouse profiles" built-in? It could be useful for players to understand how much of a difference different mice make.

  • So cool! but somehow the simulation does not work on firefox. the crosshair is just stuck in the middle

  • The aiming is very choppy because it feels like my cursor is "on rails", or stuck in some kind of grid. Not representative of any modern shooting game I've played. I think this would teach the wrong habits if someone were to use it as an aiming coach.

  • It needs some way of clearing all data. I chose "don't know" on calibration because I couldn't be bothered to try to work it out (but my mouse will be on the low end because it's just some random cheap mouse). Then, the training was ridiculous having to move my mouse miles between targets, but there's no way to change the initial calibration step. Not even in settings / data / delete.

    I'm not really the target user though. I guess those who are will already know exactly how many DPI their mice are.
