  • The Witcher 3 has trouble hitting 60fps using the resolutions that are available to users via the in game settings. By going into desktop mode and tweaking the game files you can have it run at 540p and use FSR to upscale the game back to a 720p image. Subscribe if you enjoyed this video!

    I made a little program to set custom resolutions in The Witcher 3 for Steam Deck. You can use this with FSR!

    I've been waiting for a video like this one ever since the system launched, so thanks! Really interesting to see how very taxing games can be pushed to reach 60 fps, I wonder if the same can be done for titles like Sekiro which would really benefit from a locked 60.

    Another way you can do this is by going into the properties of the Witcher 3 in steam. Go to general and you can select the resolution. Then force the resolution on internal and external display.
    Inside the game you have to have it set to borderless window. Just an alternate way if you don’t have a keyboard or want to work in the files. Thanks for the vid!

    Damn, I always wondered how do you edit the files within the game, this should get a video title rename cause I have been looking for this and couldn't find anything. Thanks for the video, very very very helpful! I am really curious how games would look at a way smaller resolutions 640x360 , 426x240 etc

    i installed this game on my micro sd card the other night, played for 2 hrs and then realized it wouldn’t let me save due to lack of storage. i have at least 250 gbs left so that’s not the case unless it’s trying to save to my internal storage. that being said i have the sd card prioritized the two other games i’ve been playing have no issues what so ever. deleted and reinstalled witcher and i still have the same issue. cannot find anything online specifically related to steam deck. only thing i can find are forums from 2015-17 with PC users having a similar issue, but no official statement from the devs or steam, and no real concrete answer to the problem. pls help if you can. i really enjoy this game and i have a lot more fun playing it on the go than on my home console

    Honestly I'd rather run at native res, mostly medium high settings and lock at 40, due to frame times 40 is actually the mid point between between 30 and 60 and the game looks about as good as on a desktop

      Try out 1152x720. Everything to medium with texture quality and detail level to high. Turn on the FSR and put to it to scaling level 3. In my opinion it puts out a cleaner image and cleans up the TAA a bit so it doesn’t look so blurry

      You still need to do this. If you're referring to the steam update that allows custom resolution, none of their offered resolutions are 16:10 aspect ratio. The only one is 640x400 but that's half the resolution of the steam deck.
