ESO mouse acceleration problem.

[Nico Winter]

I recently bought ESO, but when I try to play the game the rotation speed (both in 3rd and 1st person) is completely bonkers. If I move my mouse in real life at a constant speed, the rotation in-game will be very inconsistant, the rotation speed will sort of randomly shoot up to an insane rotation speed and my camera can sometimes do a full 360 degree turn. This makes the game completely unplayable and it's incredibly frustrating, even worse is their support because I can't post on their forums for some reason, and they have very specific categories when submitting tickets. I would really appreciate any and all help since I would love to play the game but can't do it with this problem.

[....] The bug is that when the game reaches a fixed maximum fps (which usually happens in buildings and other enclosed spaces), the mouse starts to pull. And it's not about your mouse! Found it on Reddit.

after having this issue in 2023, i can say that this solution worked perfectly. disabling steam overlay and adjusting per-program DPI settings under compatibility did not work for me. if they continue to not fix this issue in the future (which I assume they won't bother), then I recommend any user to try this first.

РЕШЕНИЕ ПРОБЛЕМЫ:

В файле конфигурации "UserSettings" найти параметр "SET MinFrameTime.2" и установить значение "0.00500000", должно получиться так - SET MinFrameTime.2 "0.00500000". Это значение зафиксирует максимальный фпс на 200. В настройках самой игры включить вертикальную синхронизацию, что не даст игре разгонять фпс выше порога вашего монитора.

Баг в том, что при достижении фиксированного игрой максимального фпс (что обычно происходит в зданиях и прочих закрытых пространствах) мышь начинает дергать. И дело тут не в вашей мышке! Нашел на Reddit.

SOLUTION:

In the "UserSettings" configuration file, find the "SET MinFrameTime" parameter.2" and set the value to "0.00500000", it should look like this-SET MinFrameTime. 2 "0.00500000". This value will fix the maximum fps at 200. In the settings of the game itself, enable vertical synchronization, which will not allow the game to accelerate the fps above the threshold of your monitor.

The bug is that when the game reaches a fixed maximum fps (which usually happens in buildings and other enclosed spaces), the mouse starts to pull. And it's not about your mouse! Found it on Reddit.

Подскажите пожалуйста, где найти сам файл конфигурации "UserSettings.txt". Я искал в папке с игрой, в моих документах, в local, roaming и я не нашел ничего.

Please tell me where to find the configuration file itself "UserSettings.txt ". I searched in the game folder, in my documents, in local, roaming and I didn't find anything.

\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live is where I see mine.

Because of my pc specs being better than the specs when this was dated I had to change it to “00300000” I believe the better your specs the lower you will go with the number I.e “00100000” or “00090000”

My problem is using the mouse wheel to zoom in and out. I have to roll the wheel so many times to actually get a change in the zoom distance. Any way to fix this?

Bumping the correct solution here in 2024, as this problem remains. Its nice that it lets me push past the 100fps cap and sync up to my monitor refresh rate.

I know in the Logitech mouse control panel, the default is to scroll 3 lines at a time with the scroll wheel. You can set it to 1, though. If you've set yours to 1, that might be why it takes so many turns of the wheel.

i use MS wireless mouse and keyboard, i try changing on win 10 config the speed of the wheel and it only work outside of the game. Zooming in and out and scrolling inventory is still very slow.

In case anyone has not figured it out, change your mouse polling rate. Most mice nowadays are auto set to 1000+hz. Some game engines (more specifically older games like CoD AW) freak out with the high polling rates. If your mouse software allows it, (and honestly, I don't see a single software NOT allowing it), set it to 125hz and tada, it's fixed

Bro, you're a lifesaver.

2025 and the issue is still present and this is still a working solution.

As an added benefit, it means if you have a >100hz monitor you can actually take advantage of it and run at your monitor's refresh rate.

I have a 165hz monitor so 0.00500000 setting the max to 200 works fine for me as 165<200. If you have a 240hz monitor you will want to set the min frametime value in that config file to be an even lower value.

I don't know why that setting would be active whilst vsync is enabled. If they made it ignore max frametime when vsync is on then that would literally solve the problem entirely.
