HELLDIVERS 2

The sensitivity slider is not accurate, expect some discrepancy.

I’m having an issue where when mouse smoothing is off, the camera gets very jittery and feel strange. Is this something we just have to deal with for now?

I noticed this as well, you can turn smoothing on if you don't mind sacrificing a bit of accuracy. The smoothing doesn't make it completely off like in some games, so it should still be playable.

Since the slider is inaccurate anyway you might not even notice it.

Can mouse sens be found in a config file? I was digging around in AppData\Roaming\Arrowhead\Helldivers2 and found two user_settings_config files, but neither seem to contain the mouse sensitivity value. It'd be useful because I can't actually drag the in-game sens slider to the exact value I want, it skips too many steps.

The game doesn't seem to write the sensitivity to a file, not sure if there's a file containing an offset or multiplier that can be adjusted.

But you can use the arrow keys to move the sensitivity slider in 0.01 increments when you hover over the sensitivity

Thank you! For some reason the arrow keys don't do that for me and instead will navigate the menu, but I was able to use my controller dpad to move the slider in 0.01 increments.

Do you mean that adjusting the slider with arrow keys adjusts it by semi-random amounts or that it's like, by 0.0095 instead of 0.01 and just gets rounded?

Seems more semi random. Sometimes it's spot on, other times it's off by a very small margin, typically only a few pixels/360. Instead of 0.1 you might get 0.10005072 etc.

The game appears to use "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\<steamid>\553850\remote\input_settings.config" to store input settings in the below format:

settings = {
	mouse_acceleration = 0
	mouse_smoothing_frames = 0
	mouse_sensitivity = [
		0.049999997019767761
		0.049999997019767761
	]
}

I tested it by manually adjusting both values to 0.01 and camera movement is significantly slower.

Excellent, I have added this now.

do i need to set the file to "read only" it keeps changing

Are you keeping the correct formatting in the file? The sensitivity needs to go on two lines as it is by default.

mouse_sensitivity = [
 0.072
 0.072
]

Do I understand correctly that "mouse scope sensitivity" slider doesn't account for various fov's of various zoom levels? And thus it's impossible to achieve MDV 0% for anything beyond "default" 1.5 scope without tweaking sens/dpi midgame?

I just adjusted this to reflect the advice. Thanks for your help as always.

The 1.5x is the only one I have access to and have analyzed. Most likely the game scales the scopes using MDV 100%, so yes it's only possible to achieve MDV 0% for one scope.

Thanks for the response!

Am I correct in assumption that 1.5x scope's FOV is the default FOV for first-persom view with any gun?

Sorry for annoyance, hadn't bout the game yet (yeah, I always purchase only if I know for sure, that I will be able to have my MDV 0%)

Can't say for sure if it's any gun, but it's the one you start with at least

There is a problem with the config file. Every time I quit the game, value of settings like sensitivity, fov keep changing. I thought it was random, but it wasn't. Those keep changing to same values.

For example,

 mouse_scope_sensitivity = 0.891895816711 > 0.8918958306312561

If I set scope sensitivity to '0.891895816711', after quitting the game and figure changes to '0.8918958306312561'. This happens every time even I fix and save it again. Always the same value replaces the value I set.

Do I have to set this file "read only"? or is there any way to solve the problem?

Quite a few games does this slight rounding/alteration of the config file values. While annoying, it is completely insignificant as this example only changes your sensitivity by 0.00000156%, which isn't even measurable.

Read only might keep the file unaltered, but the game engine will most likely use the altered value anyway.

Oh, indeed it's a small amount of change. Many decimal places made me to take it as a large deviation. Thanks for your help.
