Essential improvements

Hyperresolution Neptunia

PCGamingWiki mirror of newest version
Important notice! At Re;Birth 2 launch, installation directory contained ; in the name, making mod only work if user created folder <path-to-game>\Birth2\ and put files in to it.[3] This was fixed by the developer at June 2015, removing character from game path.[4] It's adviced to completely reinstall the game, which should fix path correctly.[5]
Games resolution options only go up to 1920x1080. With fullscreen game always uses desktop's resolution despite selected resolution option and resolution overall does not go above roughly 1080p.[6][7] This may become problematic for low end machines as resolution is only graphical option to get more performance and high end will get blurry visuals.
With this mod it's possible to force games renderer to use specific resolution. This means it's possible to improve performance with lower values, get better visuals when using desktop's native resolution and use it for downsampling as when using higher resolutions.

Issues unresolved

Severe FPS drop with Guard Break

This seems to have been the problem since closed beta state and is occuring even on higher end machines. Using Hyperresolution to lower rendering resolution and playing from SSD doesn't fix the issue,[1] but will make the drop last much less.[5]
