Den of Screenshots (Part 1)

Yeah, I did it on purpose. I figured being able to see the UI elements is important. 1024x768 is the lowest resolution available in my game options.

But there is a separate setting for resolution scale, where you can render the 3d graphics at a percentage lower than the main resolution you set. Or you can go over 100%, for downscaling. So that’s how I set 720p UI elements with proper 16x9 scaling for the overall image. But, set the resolution scale to 50%, for 360p.

I feel kinda dumb for not reading the caption :frowning:. But yeah, the blurry-polygon renaissance can’t come soon enough.

I wonder if you can make it output to 240p and get 60FPS? Or 270p at 60?

edit: I watched a video of T7, and I didn’t see any renderscaling… did I just miss it or are you forcing the render scale from outside? I really genuinely want to play some games at lower resolutions…

I dunno. 720p was 15fps. 50% resolution cut, doubled the performance to 30fps. Not sure if 240p would get me 60fps. But I’ll try it later!

I think the engine is just too shader intensive. HD4000 is pretty ok on less shader intensive games.

The resolution scale feature is built into the game.

I’m sure you can do the math but I’m so excited for this resolution cut thing:

1080p at 25% = 270p
720p at 33.3% ~ 240p (if you can’t go to the thousandths you’re at 238p… ugh)**
1080p at 20% = 386x216 which is my faux 16:9 NES reso of choice

** this is the Shovel Knight resolution

I haven’t had an Nvidia card for a long time. But, I’m pretty sure they have a pretty solid feature in their driver, for adding custom resolutions for games. But, you’ll get low res UI, too.

AMD’s custom resolution feature is way to detailed for its own good. Its not just resolution, they have you calculating different frequencies for how the display is gonna be driven and other weirdness. It used to be more straightforward, effective. But they have been changing their drivers a lot and are about to make big changes, again.

Some games have issues when you go too low.

I thought me and my boy Patrick Sueze were going to wreck some shit, scaly one-eyed monster style, but…

“Dislikes: Battle”? Goddammit, Sueze! That’s the whole point of the goddamn game!

I was dicking around in one of the proposed SNEXploitation games.

You get to choose a character. I picked Rai.

You wander around the city map and eventually wind up on this field with a weird… I don’t know, crop… not a circle because it’s in the shape of a bird thing, so a crop bird?

And then this giant, goofy, alien head just called “Monster” popped up out of nowhere and killed me.

And then my character woke up to this guy, Akihiro (?), who is talking about stuff and mentions the SATELLITE TO PERSONAL INFORMATION EXCHANGE SYSTEM (SPIES). It’s amazing!

I slaughter them for their Energy, though.

I don’t know where I’m supposed to go or what I’m supposed to do, so…

OUR WORLD DIED.
