Game capped at 1080p. Need help.

[deathman00789]

So I can't go above 1080p, I've tried fullscreen, fullscreen windowed, and windows. All three are capped at 1080, I restarted the game after each change as well. I've even add the lines below to the config ini. Any ideas on how to fix this?

DisplayMode115_Width=3840
DisplayMode115_Height=2160
DisplayMode115_RefreshRateNumerator=144
DisplayMode115_RefreshRateDenominator=1

Are you trying to do that 4k in DSR/DLDSR on a 1080 monitor?

[deathman00789]

I'm using an AMD GPU and my Virtual Super Resolution is enabled.

[Seamus]

Yeah, same answer.

The only way to do it is by changing your windows display resolution to 4k.

Directx 12 games don't do VSR/DSR without doing that unless they're specifically coded to have a dedicated full screen mode that supports it.

Rise does not.

[deathman00789]

Dang that's gonna be annoying. Guess I'll have to stick to 1080p. Thanks

It's important to note, things like Virtual Super Resolution and DLDSR will ONLY work in Fullscreen ~exclusive~ modes. Borderless Fullscreen wont work, and almost all DX12 games ONLY use Borderless Fullscreen.

Best you can do with Rise is go into the Display settings and turn rendering resolution up to 150% and hope that your PC can handle it - it looks really good at 150%.

[deathman00789]

That is disappointing. There's some aliasing even on 150% that I wanted to get rid of. Thank you for the info.

[Seamus]

There are some third party tools you can use to increase the resolution multiplier past 150%. Check nexusmods.

I play on 4k resolutions just fine, but it required changing DPI compatibility via Windows to allow the options greater than 1080 to show up in-game.

Go to your game installation folder, usually "\steamapps\common\MonsterHunterRise"
Right-click MonsterHunterRise.exe -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Change High DPI Settings -> Check both boxes for Program DPI and High DPI scaling override.

Enjoy playing at the 4k resolution of your choice.

[deathman00789]

There are multiple options for both boxes, which should they be set to?

[Dournsoul]

I have mine set to windows sign in and application, but you may have to change them depending on how your config works.

[deathman00789]

Cool I'll give it a try, thanks!

Messing with windows dpi scaling can cause issues in other games.

Probably better off finding one of the tools to change the resolution scaling beyond the 150% in the menu on nexusmods.

Yeah it certainly doesn't play well with some programs, however this particular compatibility change would only affect the MHR executable it's being applied to.

It worked for me, personally, so I recommend at least trying it to see if it helps.

I play on a 21:9 2560x1080 and was losing my mind trying to figure out why the resolution couldn't be set above 1600x900 on Steam.

Solution: Right click the game in steam > Properties > Launch Options > type this exactly as I type it with "xxxx" being your resolution; "-w" is the width, "-h" is the height:

-w (xxxx) -h (xxxx)

For example, I typed:

-w (2560) -h (1080)
