Ill try to check this tomorrow if I have time. I really thought that the devs already patched but it seems they didnt.

So it seems that not all ui layers are scaled properly on screen when changing resolution to something other than 1080p. Until I find how to fix that here are the resolution mods for 540p and 720p: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1A-fRN7q4zlEoXZEeQdajXf_xaWpwhnE9

Nice work! Tested 720p in handheld for 30 minutes or so on stock clocks and it's a massive improvement. Not sure if it's locked 60, have you had a look yourself? Anyway, if you manage to fix the UI elements then this will be perfect, obviously not really playable as it is.

They clearly did absolutely zero work on handheld mode, 1080p and no change to UI, it's tiny for handheld. In fact even though you can only see the top left corner UI in your 720p mode, that's the size we could do with for handheld! No idea if it's possible to keep that size and change position though.

edit - Thanks to masagrator's new status monitor overlay I found that 720p with 1428 CPU, 768 GPU and 1600 MEM will provide locked 60fps gameplay with no drops, in the early stages at least.
