How to Use Custom Resolutions for Improved Performance in FPS Games
This guide will show you how to utilize custom resolutions in FPS games to strike a balance between performance and visual quality.

Benefits of Custom Resolutions:
===============================

Custom resolutions offer several advantages in FPS games:
---------------------------------------------------------
Performance Boost: Lower resolutions generally require less processing power, leading to smoother gameplay.

Improved Clarity: Resolutions slightly higher than standard 1080p can enhance image clarity without sacrificing significant performance.

Enhanced Peripheral Vision: Wider resolutions can improve your awareness of your surroundings in-game.
Choosing the Right Resolution:

Near FHD 1080 and 2k 1440 Here are some popular options with explanations:
===========================================================================

1728x1080 & 2304x1440 (1:1.6 Ratio):
------------------------------------
1728x1080 & 2304x1440 wider than the standard 16:9 aspect ratio for a balanced experience.
Stretched image horizontally.

1920x1060 & 2609x1440 (1:1.81 Ratio):
------------------------------------
1920x1060 Wider than 16:9 Squashed the height is reduced, resulting in a squashed image vertically.
2609x1440 Stretched image horizontally the width is increased.

1440x1080& 1080x1440 (1:1.33 Ratio):
------------------------------------
Neither Stretched nor Squashed: (similar to 4:3) They maintain the same aspect ratio 16:9 but adjust the pixel count.


Applying Custom Resolutions:
============================

Here's how to implement custom resolutions in most games:
--------------------------------------------------------
Launch Options: Many games allow setting launch options through launchers or Steam properties. Use the following format:

-ResX=1440 -ResY=1080  (Replace * with your desired resolution)
Note:  -ResX defines width, -ResY defines height.

Example (Using Launch Options):
--------------------------------
Launch options: -ResX=1440 -ResY=1080 (-ResX=* -ResY=* replace * with any custom resolution 1350x1080 or any other 1280x960 for example ) (ResX is Width, ResY is Height)
STEP 1: create custom resolution (nvidia control pannel)
STEP 2: add launch options (steam or shortcut)
STEP 3: hit F11

Example (Game Files):
------------
Game User Settings: Locate the game's configuration file (C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\TslGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\GameUserSettings.ini) and change.
