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 doesn't provide an in-game option, you'll need to edit a configuration file. It's 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 "GameUserSettings.ini" 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), close the file, then right-click it, select "Properties," check the "Read-only" box, and click "Apply" and "OK".

This disables mouse acceleration within the game. For optimal results, also disable it in Windows:

1. In the Windows search bar, type "Mouse" and select "Mouse settings".
2. Click "Additional mouse options" in the upper right corner.
3. Go to the "Pointer Options" tab and uncheck "Enhance pointer precision".
4. Click "Apply" and "OK".

You've now successfully disabled mouse acceleration in both Marvel Rivals and Windows. Enjoy consistent sensitivity and improved aim!

Understanding Mouse Acceleration and Why It's Detrimental

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

Consistent sensitivity is crucial for building muscle memory and improving aim. Mouse acceleration prevents this by constantly changing your sensitivity.

With mouse acceleration disabled, you can now fully utilize your skills and enjoy a more precise aiming experience in Marvel Rivals.

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