What's New in RIVALSFPS.GG 5.5.1
RIVALSFPS.GG 5.5.1 came out on November 13, 2026, the day Marvel Rivals Season 11 arrived. Season 11 changed what mods can do, so this update brings your skins back, turns off the graphic packs and Quality presets Season 11 blocks, and adds a switch for NetEase's new Performance Build.
The app checks for updates by itself and, by default, installs this one the next time it starts. If you chose Ask before updating in Settings, it shows Update available and Restart & Update installs it. The What's New bell in the titlebar lists the main changes.
Performance Build
Season 11 came with an experimental Performance Build of Marvel Rivals, made by NetEase. On Steam it's a free DLC of about 150 MB that replaces the game's exe, and RIVALSFPS.GG can now turn it on and off for you: open Launch Options on Home, or Settings → Game Launch. The app closes Steam, changes the setting and opens Steam again, and Steam installs or removes the build the next time you launch the game.
Mods don't work with it yet, skins and sound mods included, so leave it off if you use mods. If it's on, the Mod Manager says so and Turn off switches it back. On Epic Games or Loading Bay you switch it in that launcher instead, and the app tells you when it's on. More in the Marvel Rivals Performance Build.
Mods on Season 11
Season 11 checks the mods you have on when you reach the lobby and removes the ones it can't read. That includes skins RIVALSFPS.GG's Fix button changed after the September update. Press Update my mods in the Mod Manager's Tools menu, or Fix on a mod marked Outdated, and the app puts them back in a form Season 11 loads. It also offers this once when it starts, and anything it replaces is backed up first.
Mods that change maps, UI or effects are removed by the game whatever we do, and they can get you logged out. These now show a red Blocked badge, and a note at the top of the Mod Manager offers Turn them off. After a launch, Not loaded now also covers a mod the game removed at the lobby. Everything that isn't a skin or a sound mod is grouped under General Mods. The full walkthrough is in Marvel Rivals mods not working.
Graphic packs and Quality presets are paused
Season 11 blocks graphic packs and map edits, and Quality presets rely on a map layer to keep the lighting right. With that layer removed, a preset turned the maps white or oddly colored. So 5.5.1 turns both off for now, and the Graphics and Quality tabs say Blocked by Season 11. Your choices are saved, so a game update that allows them again brings them back without setting anything up.
Lower Render Resolution on the Quality tab still works, on any graphics card. If the Graphics tab says a pack is still switched on, close the game and press Turn off graphic packs. More in white or oddly colored maps on Season 11.
Stretched Resolution
No black bars works again on Season 11. The app updated the file for you when it started, so there's nothing to do. If it couldn't, Stretched Resolution says so and asks you to run RIVALSFPS.GG as administrator once.
Sound mods
Sound mods work on Season 11, and the hit sounds that stopped working after the update are fixed. Your sound mods update themselves at your next Launch.
Smaller fixes
- Skip Launcher and Skip Intro Videos no longer show the launcher or the intros when you press Launch a few seconds after closing the game, or when Steam updates the game before it starts.
- Skin 3D previews work on Season 11 skins. This one came from our server, so it worked even before you updated.
The button on the download page fetches the current release from GitHub, and by default the app keeps itself up to date after that.
Common questions
How do I update RIVALSFPS.GG to 5.5.1?
The app checks for updates by itself, and by default it installs one the next time RIVALSFPS.GG starts. If you set Settings, App, How updates install to Ask before updating, it shows Update available instead, and Restart & Update installs it. Either way the titlebar then reads Up to date v5.5.1. A new install from the download page gets the current release.
Why are my maps white or oddly colored since Season 11?
A Quality preset was on without the map layer it needs, which Season 11 removes. Update to 5.5.1: it turns graphic packs and Quality presets off by itself, and the maps look normal again. Your choices are saved.
My skins stopped loading on Season 11. How do I fix them?
If RIVALSFPS.GG's Fix button changed them, press Update my mods in the Mod Manager's Tools menu, or Fix on a mod marked Outdated. It puts them back in the form Season 11 loads. The app also offers it once when it starts.
Why does a mod say Blocked?
It changes maps, UI or effects. Season 11 removes mods like this when you reach the lobby, and they can get you logged out, so turn it off. Update my mods can't fix them.
Do mods work with the Performance Build?
Not yet. The Performance Build is NetEase's own experimental version of the game, and mods, skins and sound mods included, don't load while it's on.
Will my graphic packs and Quality preset come back?
Your choices are saved, so they can come back without you setting them up again if a game update allows them. Until then, Lower Render Resolution on the Quality tab still works.
