I think that is the lowest resolution the game can handle.

If not...someone please try running in 320x240.

No, I remember trying something in 600 or 400 but i forgot....

The lowest possible resolution (for me and my friends) ingame is 800x600, but you can - and i think this is the only way doing it - decrease it even more:


Go to: C:\Users\[YOURNAME]\AppData\Local\PAYDAY 2

- Open up "renderer_settings.xml" with Notepad++ , or with Editor.

- On the "Modes (width x height x refresh):" section, underneath it, and above 800x600, you write your wished resolution size in. - Do not forget to copy all "x(numbers)" which stand behind 800x600, so that you have the exact same amount of (Resolution)x(numbers) as the 800x600 one.

- Under "<renderer_config>" at "resolution = [Current one]" - change it to the wished resolution size: e.g. 600 400.

- You also can customize the refresh rate.. at, logically "refresh_rate =".

I know, I mean there is a resolution that is around 600 and 400 that actually works and PD2 can run, by "its too small" i mean is that the cursor is not perfectly aligned with the option, there is a resolution small than 800 600 that actually works, just forgot it.

Are you trying to run this on a Commodore 64?

Nope, honestly my computer has no graphics card, had to download 3 programs, but my main menu runs 47 FPS average and ingame 27 FPS Average, is that good?

Depends... if it is playable for yourself, then you are the one who has to decide it. By far, maps with high foliage, or huge maps, would send the FPS to the deep.

It's playable.

Though you should get a dedicated card.

I did a test run with friends, all the maps runs at 24 FPS, but hotline miami and hox breakout runs at 22.

Hm.. for me, my FPS falls for around 10 FPS.. so approx 50 FPS when im playing maps with high foliage. Before upgrading my PC, i used to play with 20-35 FPS. Played the game like that for 600 hours.

Yeah, my FPS falls to 10 but climbs to 40, so I calculated its average.

You should get yourself something cheap but usable. I recommend an r7 240 or a gt 730. Until you can save up enough to build an actual computer (600 should be about enough to build a rig that is better than next-gen consoles).

Sure, but my computer isnt upgradable, and I'm saving for a better laptop.
