Shadow quality
So I love the general looks of the game but the shadows are blocky, it's quite noticeable while in Sarn Encampment.
My shadow_type is hardware_7_samples, tried to change it to variant_mapping (read it somewhere, can't remember where) but the game changed it back. My rig is i5 2500, GTX 560, 8GB RAM, 120GB SSD. Nvidia Driver 311.06, no enhancements to PoE through control panel. ¿Is hardware_7_samples the best setting or is there a way for shadows to look better? Thanks in advance :) |

By the way it's quite hard to google about this being "shadow" and "quality" important gameplay elements xD

¿Anyone?

Hi there!
Thank you for posting this this concern. I apologise for the delay in our response, as I have been away from the office recently. Are you able to confirm with us if you are currently using the GeForce Experience optimisation tool? In this instance, please toggle your 'optimise' option for Path of Exile. If this does not address the issue, please completely remove the software for testing. Please note that this does not have to be a permanent change, but it assists us greatly in isolating the cause of the issue at hand. Should this not resolve the issue, we can look at manually changing your shadow quality. Thanks! ✮ Please contact support@grindinggear.com if you need any help!

Thanks for the answer.
I wasn't using Geforce Experience nor the enhancements available in the regular nVidia Control Panel. I downloaded it and clicked "Optimize" for PoE (although there was no difference between "actual" and "optimal" listed settings) without changes to the quality in-game. Here's a screenshot to better depict what I'm talking about: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/425944999604371444/3C0D0947C361E195949CB3840138A1ECD5D1EE60/ And my production_config.ini:
