Enabling G-sync and/or DSR.

Overview

Small step by step guide to enable G-sync and/or DSR.

Enable G-sync and/or DSR

As with most recent Unity games activating DSR and/or G-sync is a pain.

The game menu says that fullscreen is “exclusive fullscreen” but it’s not. It’s really just borderless fullscreen. (=no DSR/G-sync)

Following these steps I could get it to work:

1. Set the resolution in Windows to the DSR-resolution you want to use in game (skip if you just want G-sync)

2. Launch the game with -force-opengl (the background in the main menu will glitch until next step.)

3. Go into options graphics menu and select the DSR-resolution you used in step 1.

4. Save – Done!

Step 2 is optional if you only want DSR as it will work fine in DirectX- and OpenGL-mode.

If you have a SLI-setup you need to disable SLI as G-sync doesn’t work with OpenGL in SLI for some unknown reason.

Alternate method for activating G-sync without OpenGL-mode:

Run the game without any command-lines and using the GeDoSaTo utility with the setting “forceFullscreenMode true”
