This league a change the game to a SDD and now it seems dynamic resolution does not work anymore.

It does not matter how many FPS I put dymanic resolution it does not work.Any idea why this happens?

Please post your production_Config.ini file.

It can be found in %USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Path of Exile - you can copy & paste this into File Explorer's address bar. I can't remember whether this file may sometimes contain a user's e-mail address - if you open it in Notepad, hold down Ctrl and tap F, and search for the @ symbol it'll either autoscroll to your e-mail address (which you can edit out), or it'll tell you that the symbol can't be found. This file will contain your game client's settings, which will make it easier to understand what's going on. Let me know if you need the Mac version of this post. :)

Press ctrl+f in that file, and paste this in the search box.

dynamic_resolution_factor_enabled=false


Change it to true. I believe that's the culprit.

It does not work. I changed it and with 60fps in the dynamic resolution option i have like 50 fps in oriath and between 30-60 fps in maps but never change the resolution.

Any other idea?

Thank you anyway :)

Check if the file is not set to read-only, changes made might have not saved.

Dynamic Resolution Factor is only utilised by the macOS client.

Could you try disabling Vertical Sync?

Right click -> porperties -> read only unchecked. I reopened the file and the
dynamic_resolution_factor_enabled is set to true

Yes, i tried with and without VSync. When I used to play in a HDD VSync was enabled and dynamic resolution was working. This problem started when I changed the game from a HDD to an SDD. Could be this the problem? It is wierd.

I dont know if it helps but I play on Steam. Maybe changing some option on Steam? I dont think so but...

Alright, please make the following changes;

  • Disable the Foreground FPS Cap setting.
  • Revert the Dynamic Resolution Factor changes Daiena asked you to perform.
  • Set the Resolution higher.

The way you post responses before what you're responding to is so confusing. :P

Im not a very regular forum user. I fixed it :P

- I disabled de Foregorund FPS Cap
- I Reverted the Dynamic Resolution Factor changes Daiena asked
- I changed the resolution from 1280x768 to 1920x1080. I put dyanmic resolution at 50fps sometimes it goes under 50, reaching 20fps sometimes and the resolution does not seem to be reduced :/
