How To Disable Mouse Acceleration in Marvel Rivals

Mouse acceleration is a major drawback for competitive shooters, and Marvel Rivals is no exception. The game unfortunately enables mouse acceleration by default, lacking an in-game toggle. Here's how to disable it:

Disabling Mouse Acceleration in Marvel Rivals

Because the game offers no in-game setting to disable mouse acceleration, you'll need to edit a configuration file. This is a straightforward process:

1. Press Windows key + R, then type %localappdata% and press Enter.
2. Locate the Marvel folder, then navigate to MarvelSavedConfigWindows.
3. Open the GameUserSettings.ini file using Notepad (or your preferred text editor).
4. Add the following lines to the end of the file:

[/Script/Engine.InputSettings]
bEnableMouseSmoothing=False
bViewAccelerationEnabled=False

5. Save the changes (Ctrl + S), then close the file.
6. Right-click GameUserSettings.ini, select Properties, check the "Read-only" box, and click Apply.

You've now disabled mouse acceleration in Marvel Rivals. Your aim should feel significantly improved.

Remember to also disable mouse acceleration in Windows settings:

1. Search for "Mouse" in the Windows search bar and open "Mouse settings".
2. Click "Additional mouse options" in the top right corner.
3. Go to the "Pointer Options" tab and uncheck "Enhance pointer precision".
4. Click Apply and OK.

With mouse acceleration disabled in both the game and Windows, you'll experience consistent sensitivity, crucial for building muscle memory and improving your aim in Marvel Rivals.

Understanding Mouse Acceleration and Its Impact

Mouse acceleration dynamically adjusts your sensitivity based on your mouse movement speed. Fast movements result in higher sensitivity, while slower movements lower it. While convenient for general use, this is detrimental to shooters like Marvel Rivals.

Consistent sensitivity is key. It allows you to develop muscle memory, leading to better aim. Mouse acceleration prevents this by constantly changing your sensitivity.

Now, enjoy a smoother, more responsive aiming experience in Marvel Rivals with your preferred characters.

Marvel Rivals is currently available on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S.
