Marvel Rivals Season 0: Conquer Aim Issues with This Simple Fix

Many Marvel Rivals players, while enjoying the game's heroes and maps, have reported aim inconsistencies, especially while climbing the competitive ladder. This guide addresses this common problem by showing you how to disable mouse acceleration and aim smoothing, a feature enabled by default that can hinder precise aiming, particularly for mouse and keyboard users. This isn't considered cheating; it's simply adjusting a setting that many games offer directly in their options menu.

Why Disable Mouse Acceleration/Aim Smoothing?

Mouse acceleration/aim smoothing, beneficial for controller users, often interferes with the sharp, precise movements needed for effective aiming with a mouse and keyboard. Disabling it allows for more consistent flick shots and responsive aiming.

How to Disable the Feature

Because Marvel Rivals lacks an in-game toggle for this setting, you'll need to manually edit a game file. Here's a step-by-step guide:

  1. Open the Run dialog: Press the Windows key + R.

  2. Navigate to the save file: Paste the following path into the Run dialog, replacing "YOURUSERNAMEHERE" with your Windows username (found under This PC > Windows > Users):

    C:\Users\YOURUSERNAMEHERE\AppData\Local\Marvel\Saved\Config\Windows

  3. Open GameUserSettings: Press Enter. Locate the GameUserSettings file, right-click, and open it with Notepad (or another text editor).

  4. Add the code: At the bottom of the file, add the following lines of code:

    [/script/engine.inputsettings]
    bEnableMouseSmoothing=False
    bViewAccelerationEnabled=False
    bDisableMouseAcceleration=False
    RawMouseInputEnabled=1
  5. Save and close: Save the changes and close Notepad. You've now disabled mouse acceleration and aim smoothing.

Enjoy improved aim precision in your Marvel Rivals matches! This simple adjustment can significantly enhance your gameplay experience.
