Issues unresolved

Downsampling / DSR resolutions not displayed

The game will only display resolutions up to the current desktop resolution setting, leaving any DSR options unavailable.[5]
This can be worked around by changing the desktop resolution to the DSR resolution before launching, after that DSR options should show in the game, though desktop resolution will need to be changed each time you want to launch it.
