Gameplay Help and Discussion - HOW TO: Increase FPS/Lag Less - Forum

" Xendran wrote: As much as i love the actual aesthetic of the game, the only reason for this is because D3 is cartoony and Grim Dawn isn't out yet. PoE has very few textures that i'd consider to be high detail. Yes, and? It still has the highest texture quality at the moment as i said (and you also) for this type of games. Not sure about grim down, it's not that noticeable from screenshots to tell you the truth and it will be very close in comparation, but that game is not even in alpha yet, and will not come out for some time. Edit: In fact looking at the grim dawn right now, textures are not more detailed at all compared to PoE, and you can see it even if the screenshoots are not zoomed in, but than again it still to early and not yet in alpha.

Game looks ok zoomed out from afar but as soon as you zoom in the ugliness in a lot of the textures quickly shows. You can actually drop down to Medium and the difference isn't that great. Don't get me wrong, I'm not hating on Path of Exile in the slightest, I just don't consider it to be some highly advanced graphical masterpiece. Regardless of its genre.

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.

I have another one. I played on a Intel dual core 2.4ghz and for me to have stablezied ping required.... 1. everything turn off. 2. And number 2, the most imporant that people forget, is resolution. Higher effects offers so much detail that running window ( and resizing as small as you need it to go .. ) is one of the last attempts to run the game. This way you can still have normal particle effects but just a smaller screen. Playing in a 6 man group with auras + zombies still maybe tough with my steps, but it's diffidently doable. again, turn EVERYTHING to off, or the lowest possible settings, then run window mode and resize it until you stop lagging.

thank you dude! I am a warrior. I was born to fight and death is my brother. I do not fear him. I see him in the eyes of the men and beasts that I kill. I feel him traveling beside me to this new land, this Wraeclast. He will take me to meet the ancestors when I am ready, and I am not ready.
