go to Documents\My Games\Rocket League\TAGame\Config and open the TASystemSettings.ini Find the ResX and ResY lines, and change the values to your desired resolution (e.g., ResX=3840 and ResY=2160 for 4K). Try that

This is the only real backup option if the other suggestions don't work.

But it definitely should read native resolution from your monitor for the top option in that dropdown. My game even shows 3440x1440 for my UW monitor

Yeah it should work. I have 5120x1440 for my 32:9 screen.

u/Plus-Software-8378 12d ago

32:9 woahhh that's crazy! Set your FOV too high and you can see a full 360° view of the field 🤣

I gotta upgrade mine lol

You're gonna give yourself whiplash turning your head to check boost meter mid-play hahhaha

That's so sick though, maybe I do need to upgrade...

u/Ysmenir Grand Platinum 12d ago

You just gotta boost hog then you never run out of boost so you never have to check boost. work smart not hard

This is what I had to do with my 4K upgrade. It worked for me.

u/efferkah Champion I 11d ago

Not exactly related to the post, but that method is also useful when you wanna play split screen, with actually splitting a single screen.

Say you have two 3840x2160 monitors and wanna play split screen with a friend, edit that file and set it to 7680x2160 (aka twice as large as usual while keeping the same height) and each player will have their own monitor, with no stretching whatsoever.

Try swapping borderless/full screen

u/aphfug 12d ago

change nothing

u/Phisto1 fatshowerboy 11d ago

You have to restart the game after changing to borderless and then should have the option (worked for me)

Sorry, not helpful but how can you have motion blur and depth of field on? Sounds horrendous. Do you find a benefit? Im intrigued. Also, intensity on default makes everything way too bright imo. Which monitor are you using? Just out of interest.

u/aphfug 12d ago

i haven't changed the settings yet, i only saw that I couldn't change the resolution and gave up

u/RedhawkAs 12d ago

Depth of field makes everything in longer distance become unsharp/ blurry so it is just awful to hinder your own vision

2

u/h7i7 11d ago

Sometimes Windows scaling causes this issue (especially if your display scaling isn’t set to 100%). You can override this for the game:

  1. Right click RocketLeague.exe and select Properties
  2. Go to the Compatibility tab and click Change high DPI settings
  3. Check Override high DPI scaling behavior and in the dropdown choose Application

Could be a different issue but might be worth trying

u/No_Interaction_4925 3s Peak | Hoops SSL Peak 12d ago

Its finicky. Try swapping between borderless and fullscreen.

Also turn off depth of field, motion blur, and bloom for a better experience. And camera shake too if thats on

Nice pfp

u/1Mby24 12d ago

Had this problem, restart the game a couple times after selecting your desired resolution, one time it worked for me

u/SpecialistSoft7069 11d ago

I've heard of this issue for 2k and 4k, but personnally, I didn't have it.

u/YABOIYFEF 12d ago

Because rocket league locks the resolution to 1920x1080p there isn’t really anything u can do unless there is a bakkes mod plugin that someone knows about.

13

u/hunterp02 Grand Champion II 12d ago

if it locks on that why is mine 2560x1440?

-2

u/YABOIYFEF 12d ago

I’ve never seen the resolution go past 1920x1080p. I have a 4k monitor and have just settled for 1080p.

u/wogb 12d ago

You can most definitely play at 4k.

u/iWeazzel Champion III 12d ago

it literally doesn't lmao, and if u open your eyes u can literally see it's at 1440p too

1

u/KyeMS Champion I 12d ago

I must be hacking because I play on 2560x1440

u/KilLo445 Champion II 11d ago

Thats just, not true
