This may solve the mouse acceleration problem that's plaguing you!

Zero out the smooth mouse curve entries, as in make everything 00, all ........ On the right hand side. I already had mouseaccel at 0 and doing this was an instant 1:1 feel on desktop without rebooting.

Got my friend to try it and he instantly was "sheesh, that feels 1:1 straight away". I never really explained what it does/he didn't know what to expect and he was reluctant to try it as he was happy where his mouse settings were so his response was just confirmation that this wasn't placebo, even though it clearly wasn't anyway.

He didn't have a MouseAccel entry at all either and didn't manually add one. I also had an extra entry, SmoothMouseYCurve2 which I also zeroed out but he only had 2 like in the screenshots here so those were the only 2 settings he changed and instantly saw the result.

Right before changing these settings I had been playing like an hour of gridshot ultimate on aimlabs averaging about 100k and I could feel it, remember saying to myself "something just isn't right here, I can feel it, my mouse isn't doing precisely what I want" felt like I was fighting something to get my mouse to go where I want it, but was subtle enough to pass off as just hitting your aiming limit. I went and consulted chatgtp and it brought up the smooth mouse reg settings. I had been averaging 100k for months and just couldn't improve. Right after this mouse change after a few gridshots getting used to the new feel ( it feels extra sensitive at first, but it's just a side effect of being more responsive, I even took my sensitivity down a notch) I went a personal best of 110k and can feel a CLEAR window for improvement now.

First go to the path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\GraphicsDrivers\Configuration
There are many folders in there, click on Edit, then Find, type in Scaling and press F. (It's okay to delete the bunch, it will be generated automatically after reboot).
Modify only the values of the scaling ratio. Fullscreen=3, Aspect Ratio=4, No Scaling=2,0 are the ones I personally tested and downloaded the most.
This modification also affects the feel, it is recommended to backup the registry before modification. Just in case you can't adapt.
Hi what did you mean u need to change all scaling to 2(No scaling) or what?
Find the registry key he quoted, there will be a folder (or multiple) under that “configuration”, mine is something like “HP369432257” (it’s a HP monitor), open that, then it should be “00”, then another “00”, under this will be a bunch of your monitor settings, one being “scaling”, by default it should be 4, which is “Maintain Aspect ratio”, “3” is “Full screen” scaling, which stretches any non aspect ratio resolution to fit your monitor, “2” is “No scaling”, and “1” is something called “Identity scaling”, which I believe is Microsoft’s default “No scaling”, I’m not really sure what “0” does, but on paper “1” or “2” should be best, but really it’s what you prefer

yes i understand that, but if u set to 0 in nvidia control panel changes to aspect ratio or it's kinda buggy i guess

I don’t believe 0 is a correct value, as I said “1” is Microsoft’s default no scaling (different to your gpu drivers no scaling)

I have been using 0 for a long time, although 0 has not been correctly explained in various places, but I have tried and tested these values, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0. I think 0 is the best for me, and I do not know why 0 is shown as aspect ratio. In addition, about mouseaccel, I am very sure that it will affect the feeling of the mouse, I have been using this change for a long time, and I am very sure that it will make my hand feel better.
currently mainly researching desync.

Could you explain exactly what you did to achieve the desired movement?

Deleting all the registry keys feels the best for me and it's a huge difference in games without raw input. Enhance pointer precision gets turned on after you restart and some keys get added back but they can be safely deleted.

The settings I'm going to paste feel incredible. However the usual lag creeps up in about half an hour, so I play a match and spend a few minutes on the desktop afterwards.
Make a backup of your mouse reg key if you want, then make a .reg file with the following text.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse]
"ActiveWindowTracking"=-
"Beep"=-
"DoubleClickHeight"=-
"DoubleClickSpeed"=-
"DoubleClickWidth"=-
"ExtendedSounds"=-
"MouseHoverHeight"=-
"MouseHoverTime"=-
"MouseHoverWidth"=-
"MouseSensitivity"=-
"MouseSpeed"=-
"MouseThreshold1"=-
"MouseThreshold2"=-
"MouseTrails"=-
"RawMouseThrottleEnabled"=dword:00000001
"RawMouseThrottleForced"=dword:00000001
"RawMouseThrottleDuration"=dword:00000014
"RawMouseThrottleLeeway"=dword:00000000
"SmoothMouseXCurve"=-
"SmoothMouseYCurve"=-
"SnapToDefaultButton"=-
"SwapMouseButtons"=-

I remember using these values but I don't know where they were from. I just delete them all, feels better.
