How the sensitivity finder works
The finder uses the same cm/360 calculations as the cm/360 calculator. It does not invent a recommended sensitivity for a game. Instead, it asks you to compare a slower and a faster setting, then keeps narrowing the range based on your own preference.
- Set the starting point. Choose your game, enter your mouse DPI, and enter the sensitivity or cm/360 you currently use.
- Compare two settings. The finder shows a slower option and a faster option. Set each one in your game and test it against a familiar target or warm-up routine.
- Choose what felt better. Pick slower, faster, or about the same. The finder keeps the side of the range you preferred and builds the next comparison.
- Narrow the range. Repeat for a few rounds. The range shrinks each time, and the finder stops when it reaches the configured threshold or round limit.
- Test the final setting. The suggested sensitivity is the midpoint of your preferred range. Use it as a starting point, then adjust inside the game if needed.
Why the result is subjective
Aim comfort depends on your grip, mousepad, FOV, role, warm-up, and what you are used to. Two players with the same cm/360 can prefer different sensitivities. The finder can only tell you which side of a range you chose more often; it cannot tell you which setting is objectively best.
A mouse-based cm/360 comparison also does not model aim-down-sights, scopes, FOV changes, acceleration, or sensitivity rounding inside the game. Test the suggested setting in the game before keeping it.
Supported profiles and limits
- Linear-yaw profiles
- 416 records use the documented yaw formula and are eligible for the finder.
- Custom-curve profiles
- 8 records use stored response curves and are labelled inside the result. The finder reports when a curve is not exactly invertible.
- Excluded approximations
- 52 source-flagged non-linear records are excluded because the finder cannot compare their physical turn distance reliably.
- Conflicting game models
- Some games have a linear converter record and a separate cm/360 model. The finder uses the cm/360 profile and shows a warning so its result is not confused with the general converter.
FAQ
Is this the best sensitivity for my game?
No. There is no single optimal sensitivity. The finder narrows a range from your own comparisons and reports the midpoint. Treat it as a comfortable starting point, not a guaranteed or scientifically optimal setting.
Why do I have to test the settings in-game?
The finder compares model-based cm/360 values. It cannot feel your aim, and it does not model FOV, aim-down-sights behavior, acceleration, or how a game rounds sensitivity. Only in-game testing tells you which option feels more controllable.
What does About the same do?
It keeps the range between the two options you just compared. With coarse sensitivity steps, further narrowing may not be possible, so the finder finishes and explains why instead of repeating the same comparison.
Which games are supported?
424 hip-fire mouse profiles are available: 416 linear-yaw profiles and 8 custom-curve profiles. 52 source-flagged non-linear approximations are excluded because a reliable cm/360 comparison is not available for them.
Why can this disagree with the sensitivity converter?
A few games have conflicting loaded models. The finder uses the cm/360 profile for those games, while the general converter uses a separate record. The result warns you when this happens so the difference is not hidden.
Does the finder save my choices?
No. The finder runs in your browser for the current session only. Nothing is stored or sent anywhere. To keep named DPI and sensitivity profiles, use the separate Saved Settings tool, which stores them locally in this browser.
