Mouse sensitivity
Hello!
I come from games such as counter-strike and quake where you use rather low sensitivity to maximize your aiming potential. I would love for this game to have a way to lower the mouse sensitivity beyond the menu "slider" value. Can anyone help?

Thanks

What kind of mouse do you have? A Gaming mouse such as the Razer Mamba mouse allows you this customization

I'm interested also, I'd like to increase my mouse sensitivity for Fallout 4 (it's already maxed ou both in Windows and in my Roccat customization stuff). I do not have sensitivity issues with other games.

Sounds like you need a mouse with switchable DPI! It's so useful.

manually change it via config file

D:\Users\Documents\My Games\Fallout4

find the line and change the value to whatever you like:
fMouseHeadingSensitivity=0.0141

you can also find a guide for setting equivilent sensitivity on mouse-sensivity.com; just choose Skyrim as the game and the process will apply to this game

Even with the mouse accel fixes and vsync off, the mouse still feels weird.

I don't know how to describe it other than that it just doesn't feel right.

My mouse feels weird as well. Also don't know how to describe. Not straight as in ArmA. Somewhat nervous.

I think there's a setting somewhere to match the vertical and horizontal sensitivity. By default the Vertical is less sensitive. It feels much better once you fix it IMO

Yes default mouse movement is weird. Look for "Vertical and Horizontal Mouse Movement Different" in the following guide: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=551069501

Need lower mouse speed as well. Thank you Bardiche for pointing out that setting. Your link is blocked by Steam because it's potentially malicious though.

nah sounds like games need to actually have a usable scale for sensitivity....
