The settings file is in Users/<User Name>/Documents/My Games/Path of Exile, it's called production_Config.ini In that file, you should find a [GENERAL] line, and somewhere below that the cache_directory= line. If that line isn't there, you can just add it, that's how ini files work. (Same goes for the performance_metrics_state= line under the [UI] line).

Everything got worse. I sure hope you'll fix this with a follow-up patch. HOW are you always making things worse?!?! Using RTX3070, i7 9700K, had stable 90+fps during Ultimatum and 120+ fps during normal mapping. Now I got heavy framedrops and worse FPS overall (~50 and lower).

right after patch hits, I opened the client it downloaded around 2.5GB update. stuck at loading screen, never saw login screen. :( some hours later (10h I think) I tried again, client downloaded another patch around 35MB (MB not GB) update. game runs smoothly, the performance is actually way better. (1-5fps -> 20-30fps) :) today (July 9th) opening PoE, it downloads around 35MB update (MB not GB). stuck at loading screen, could not reach to login screen :( Edit: also ran "PackCheck.exe Content.ggpk", no problem found. Edit2: (July 11th) changing the renderer_type from DirectX11 to Vulkan solved the infinite gear spinning and now able to login; in "production_Config.ini" file, under [DISPLAY], "renderer_type=Vulkan" Edit3: (July 12th) another update under 40MB. login successful, selecting DirectX11 does not cause infinite gear spinning anymore. I will check performance later today Last edited by selcuk#4682 on Jul 12, 2021, 6:27:16 AM	Posted by selcuk#4682 on Jul 9, 2021, 10:51:32 AM Quote this Post
