Marvel Rivals: Mastering Your Aim – Disabling Mouse Acceleration and Aim Smoothing

Season 0 of Marvel Rivals has been a whirlwind of map exploration, hero discovery, and playstyle experimentation. However, as players climb the Competitive Play ladder, many are experiencing aim inconsistencies. This guide addresses the common frustration of imprecise aiming and provides a simple solution.

Many players find that the default mouse acceleration/aim smoothing setting hinders accurate aiming, particularly for flick shots and precise movements. While beneficial for controller users, this feature often proves detrimental for mouse and keyboard players. The good news is that this setting can be easily disabled.

Why is my aim off?

Marvel Rivals, unlike many games, lacks an in-game option to disable mouse acceleration and aim smoothing. This feature is enabled by default. Disabling it allows for raw mouse input, leading to improved precision.

How to Disable Mouse Acceleration and Aim Smoothing

This fix involves modifying a game settings file. This is not considered cheating or modding; it simply overrides a default setting.

Step-by-Step Guide:

  1. Open the Run dialog: Press the Windows key + R.
  2. Navigate to the save file location: Paste the following path into the Run dialog, replacing "YOURUSERNAMEHERE" with your Windows username: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAMEHERE\AppData\Local\Marvel\Saved\Config\Windows (If unsure of your username, go to This PC > Windows > Users).
  3. Open the GameUserSettings file: 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
  1. Save and close: Save the changes and close Notepad. You've successfully disabled mouse acceleration and aim smoothing!

By following these steps, you'll experience significantly improved aim precision in Marvel Rivals, empowering you to dominate the battlefield with your preferred heroes.
