XInput.ini

Reduce Mouse Sensitivity
* Change the value to desired amount. I found 50 to be a better value than the default of 60.

[Engine.PlayerInput]
MouseSensitivity=50.0

XUserOptions.ini

Reduce Mouse Sensitivity
* Change in-game Mouse Sensitivity Slider Values
An overall good fix if your mouse is too fast and the minimum option isn’t low enough

[XCore.XUserOptionsManager]
MaxMouseLookSensitivity=1.000000

Enable 90 Degree FOV
* Change in-game FOV Slider Value to MaxUserFOVOffsetPercent=28.570000.

MAX “MaxUserFOVOffsetPercent=15.000000”

MAX “MaxUserFOVOffsetPercent=28.570000”

XEngine.ini

Reduce Stuttering
* Change PoolSize to Larger Value
[TextureStreaming]
PoolSize=2048

Enable Max Quality Mode
* Change bUseMaxQualityMode=False to bUseMaxQualityMode=True
This setting will produce the best visuals in-game and sets all shadows to 4096 resolution.

Enable Floating Point Rendering
* Add FloatingPointRenderTargets=True to [SystemSettings]
Renders the Image more accurately with floating point precision. Useful for all Unreal Engine games.
