Arma 3 to Rainbow Six Siege sensitivity converter
Convert your Arma 3 sensitivity to Rainbow Six Siege instantly. Same hand motion, perfect muscle memory across both games.
Why Arma 3 sens doesn't match Rainbow Six Siege
At 0.4 sens on 800 DPI, Arma 3 sweeps 129.89 cm across a full 360°. To reproduce that exact arm motion in Rainbow Six Siege, you need sens 1.5359 — about 3.84× your Arma 3 number. Nothing changed except Rainbow Six Siege's yaw of 0.00572958 vs Arma 3's 0.022; the centimeters of mouse travel stay the same.

How to apply the converted sensitivity in Rainbow Six Siege
Open Rainbow Six Siege's settings, paste the converted sensitivity into the sens field and keep your 800 DPI if that matches how you play Arma 3. Run a 360° check on a practice map: the mouse sweep should cover roughly 129.89 cm on your pad — the same distance as in Arma 3. Only start tuning if the sweep feels off, never before the 360° check.
Common mistakes when converting Arma 3 to Rainbow Six Siege
- Copying the sens without matching DPI
A converted Arma 3-to-Rainbow Six Siege number is tied to the DPI you used during conversion. If your Rainbow Six Siege mouse profile runs a different DPI, the math no longer holds — use Sens Converter's 'different DPI' toggle instead of eyeballing.
- Trusting eDPI across engines
Matching eDPI between Arma 3 and Rainbow Six Siege does not give matching turn speed, because their yaws are 0.022 and 0.00572958. Always compare cm/360° (or in/360°), not eDPI, when swapping games.
- Ignoring scoped and ADS overrides
Arma 3 and Rainbow Six Siege each apply their own scoped / ADS multiplier on top of the base sensitivity. Converting the base is step one — confirm the per-zoom multiplier in Rainbow Six Siege separately, otherwise scoped aim will feel wrong even with a perfect hipfire match.
Arma 3 → Rainbow Six Siege FAQ
Why is my converted Rainbow Six Siege sens different from my Arma 3 number?+
Rainbow Six Siege has a yaw of 0.00572958 compared to Arma 3's 0.022. Their ratio is about 3.84×, so Sens Converter multiplies your Arma 3 sens by that factor to keep cm/360° identical. The raw number looks different, but the arm motion is the same.
Should I keep the same DPI in Arma 3 and Rainbow Six Siege?+
Yes, when possible. Keeping DPI identical means only the in-game multiplier changes, which is the cleanest switch. If you run different DPI in Rainbow Six Siege, enable 'different DPI' in the converter and it absorbs the extra math.
How many decimals should I use in Rainbow Six Siege?+
Rainbow Six Siege accepts at least 3 decimals; 4-6 is common. Sens Converter outputs enough precision that rounding to 3 decimals keeps the 360° error below one millimetre on a typical 800 DPI setup.
Does FOV affect Arma 3 to Rainbow Six Siege conversion?+
For the base sensitivity, no — sens is independent of FOV in both engines. If you use a 0% MonitorDistance or similar scaling mode in either game, convert at the FOV you actually run in-game.
