Guide to Improving Switches/Item Drag

[Y I P K U 57]

I would HIGHLY advise closing any SPK clients before doing this.

 

Navigate to your userfiles and .spawnpk-data (C:\Users\PC_Name_here\.spawnpk-data) by either:

-> Windows Explorer -> This PC -> Windows (C:) -> Users -> PC_Name_Here -> .spawnpk-data     

Or by simply clicking your userfiles from the dropdown menu of Windows Explorer, it should be right below the "Desktop" option.

 

Right click settings.properties and click "open with".

 

Click open or "open with" then choose notepad/wordpad or an equivalent.

 

Scroll to the bottom till you see item_drag=X. The default = 0, higher drag = better. The value of X would be whatever is currently set in your client

 

Change the value what you like, fiddle around with it a bit. I just doubled the max default drag and it works pretty good, the max default drag is 20. I wouldn't go above 55~ unless your mouse has crazy sensitivity or you have a high DPI screen. Enjoy your switches.

Close the client BEFORE changing any values 

 

Side note: The SPK client has natural acceleration for items, so if you're one of the people who click-hold their first item this won't help you.

Is this also possible on a Mac?

I would guess so, you just have to find the location of the .spkdata file.

Also nice guide @Y I P K U !

 Setdrag only goes to 20. This allows you to go beyond that. Which is imo kind of cheating. But then again I think 20 drag by itself is already way too high.
