Fix Your Marvel Rivals Accuracy

by Max Dec 30,2024

Many Marvel Rivals players have reported aim issues during Season 0 – Doom's Rise. While mastering the game's maps, heroes, and abilities is key, some find their aim feels imprecise. This is often due to a default setting: mouse acceleration/aim smoothing. This guide shows how to disable it for improved accuracy.

Marvel Rivals enables mouse acceleration/aim smoothing by default. Unlike many games, there's no in-game option to disable it. While beneficial for controller users, many keyboard and mouse players prefer to turn it off for better precision, especially for quick shots. The preference depends on individual playstyles and preferred heroes.

Fortunately, a simple PC fix exists. You can manually edit a game file to disable this feature without resorting to modding or cheating. This file updates whenever you change in-game settings like crosshair or sensitivity.

Disabling Aim Smoothing/Mouse Acceleration: A Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Open the Run dialog (Windows key + R).
  2. Paste this path, replacing "YOURUSERNAMEHERE" with your Windows username: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAMEHERE\AppData\Local\Marvel\Saved\Config\Windows (Find your username under This PC > Windows > Users if needed).
  3. Press Enter. Right-click the GameUserSettings file and open it with Notepad.
  4. Add these lines to the bottom of the file:
[/script/engine.inputsettings]
bEnableMouseSmoothing=False
bViewAccelerationEnabled=False
bDisableMouseAcceleration=False
RawMouseInputEnabled=1
  1. Save and close the file. Mouse smoothing and acceleration are now disabled, prioritizing raw mouse input.
