" Updating the config to version 1.2 : 09/06/20

- Changed sharpness from 0.5 to 0.75

- Maximum dynamic resolution threshold - 100% [Portable / Dock]
- Changed sharpness from 0.5 to 0.75 [Portable / Dock]

EDIT: I have added a few more configs of my own and merged them with the 1.2 update from ECLIPSE00074.

Sharpness 1: Sharpness has been changed from 0.75 to 1 to make it less blurry. [Portable / Dock]

Always Max Resolution+Sharpness 1: It will always run at max resolution and has a sharper image. Do not expect it to run good, it's only for screenshots or eye candy. [720p Portable / 1080p Dock]
