HOW TO: Increase FPS/Lag Less


"I found this out yesterday, and it actually helps an insane amount. Before, in 6-man groups, I was dropping to <5 FPS fairly regularly. Now, I generally don't drop any less than 25.
Keep in mind that doing this will make the game look absolutely awful.
Step 1: Find "production_Config.ini". It should be in your C:\Users\YourName\Documents\My Games\Path of Exile folder, otherwise just search for it.
Step 2: Open the INI and look for "texture_quality=1"
Step 3: Change the number to your desired texture quality.
1=high
2=medium
3=low
4=very low
Restart your game and enjoy your terrible looking lag-free experience.

"Very Low" settings (4): http://i.imgur.com/JpWx4U2.jpg"

WARNING; GRAPHICS WILL LOOK SOMEWHAT LIKE RUNESCAPE

EDIT: The numbers can exceed 4. And lowest is 0.

It really doesn't look THAT bad. Tho this is coming from one who has never cared about what a game looks like.

Not to be a naysayer but I remember trying this a month back or so, and it didn't actually help with the stuttering in groups/certain spells.

Maybe it'll help people that have problems due to the detail on the textures but that's all this will do.
nice find,
