Visual Fidelity and Mechanics


Beyond standard rules, Mordhau offers granular settings for visual physics and camera behavior. You can enable the “Arrow Camera” to follow projectiles in flight and adjust how many ragdolls are active simultaneously to balance server performance with the “gory” aesthetic of a medieval battlefield.

1. The Arrow Camera

The arrow camera provides a cinematic view for bowmen and ballista users.
  • Activation: In Game.ini, find bEnableArrowCamera= and set it to true.
  • Effect: Players can hold the action key after firing to follow their projectile to the target.

2. Ragdoll Optimization

High-population servers (64+ players) can struggle with “Ragdoll Lag” when many players die in a small area.
  • Config: In Engine.ini, locate RagdollStayTime.
  • Recommendation: Keep this value between 30-60 seconds. Setting it too high will cause bodies to pile up, consuming significant CPU cycles for physics calculations.
