Ballistics Curves

After perusing the XIM4 forums, I decided to remove ballistic curves from my Rainbow Six: Siege config. Rainbow Six: Siege does not have aim assist in multiplayer, so it made sense to remove the curves.

Additional Notes

on DPI settings with the XIM4…
XIM4 User Manual (PDF) states: “Make sure your mouse is running at its maximum DPI”

on Left Stick Deadzone for keyboard users…
The left stick deadzone won’t have any effect on your config unless you are planning to have a walk key bound on your keyboard

If you are using the walk key, the left stick deadzone can be adjusted to allow faster or slower movements when walking. 5% is the lowest you can set the deadzone, and this will result in the fastest walk speed in game. Setting it to 29% will result in the slowest walking speed. Setting it any higher than 29% will disable the walk key from working.
