Keybinds, Controls & Graphics Guide
Keybinds and Controls
Mordhau’s default control scheme aka “240 system” isn’t great coming from chivalry or as a new player, it’s quite unintuitive IMO.
In order to disable the 240 control scheme:
- Go to “controls” – > uncheck all tickboxes
Under keybinds change the following:
- Feint – Q
- Right mouse button – Parry
- Right strike – left mouse button
- Fire – Left mouse button (make sure this is bound or you cant spawn dont overwrite above)
- Left upper strike – Thumb mouse button if you have one
- Left lower strike – Thumb mouse button if you have one
- Flip attack side – Left Alt
Graphics
Depending on FPS you may want to tweak you graphics settings. Personally, I play on mostly low settings to achieve maximum FPS – especially in Frontlines.
Under the “Game” tab:
- Head bob – 0
- Ragdoll limit – Lower is better. I use 3
- Ragdoll stay time – Lower is better. I use 3
Under the “Video” tab:
Anything with [IMPORTANT] has a big impact on FPS or visibility
DISABLE V-SYNC – Even if you have a 60Hz Monitor you should always be aiming for 120fps
- Resolution Scale – Adjust this based on FPS. If you are getting enough FPS you can turn this up to 1.1 or 1.2 for a sharper picture. Leave on 1 if not getting consistant frames or on Frontlines
- Frame rate limit – 120 if on a 60Hz monitor, 143 on a 144hz monitor. Lower based on framerate (if you’re getting 54 FPS max then make it 50 for example)
- Field of View – 101, obviously
- Antia-aliasing – FXAA or Off (especially if using higher than 1 screenscale) [IMPORTANT]
- Texture quality – Adjust based on GPU VRAM size (6gb+ = Ultra) (4gb = High) etc.
- Effects – Low
- Shadow Quality – Low (Medium is fine, again I use for FPS)
- Indirect Shadows – Off
- View Distance – Low
- Post process – Low [IMPORTANT]
- Foliage Density – Low [IMPORTANT]
- Character Qaulity – Low
- Character Cloth – No Cloth [IMPORTANT]
- Ragdoll Qaulity – Low [IMPORTANT]
- Screenspace Reflections – Off [IMPORTANT]
- Motion Blur – Off [IMPORTANT]
- Bloom – Off [IMPORTANT]
- Ambient Occlusion – Off [IMPORTANT]
- Lens Flares – Off [IMPORTANT]
Still Getting Low FPS
Removing Shadows
Make sure you have followed the above graphics settings to your liking before doing the bellow as you cannot update graphics setting in-game after this..
- press windows key + R -> type %appdata% -> press OK
- Exit /Roaming then into /AppData -> go to Local/Mordhau/Saved/Config/WindowsClient/ open GameUserSettings.ini
- CNTRL + F and look for sg.ShadowQuality=1 change to sg.ShadowQuality=0
- Save, go to .ini file -> right click -> properties -> set to “Read Only”Using this method will not work with Mordhau open, make sure it is closed with the desired graphics settings already saved.
nVidia:
- Under manage 3d settings -> program settings -> add mordhau, -> set virtually pre-rendered frames to 2 or 3 (higher = more FPS but also more input lag)
- Power management mode – Prefer maximum performance
- Texture Quality – Performance
- V-Sync – Off
- Anti-Aliasing – Off
- Make sure drivers are up to dateONLY USE IF GETTING BAD FPS
- Open Console
- type r.MipMapLodBias 4 (0-100, 10 being worst looking but best FPS)
- type r.skeletalmeshlodbias 100 (0-100, 100 being worst looking but best FPS)
