List of Client.exe command line arguments (parameters), launch options

"

Do not attempt to patch
--nopatch

If you add "--nopatch" to the end of your shortcut (without the quotes), does it still crash?

"

Do not preload art assets on startup
--nopreload

"

The login server port
-lp
--login-port

Usage: -lp <port number> or --login-port <port number>

"

The patching server that should be patched from
-p
--patching-server

Usage: -p <server> or --patching-server <server>

--patching-server pathofexile.com:3724

"

Override basic auth used for for patching content
-pa
--patching-auth

"

Before running wait for this process id to exit.
--prev-proc-id

Usage: --prev-proc-id <process id>

"

Require that the user press the launch button in the patcher before entering game
--require-launch

"

Fail horribly
--fail

"

The number of generations to keep around when running garbage collection
-gc
--garbage-generations

Usage: -gc <generations> or --garbage-generation <generations>

you can put -gc 2 at the end of your Path of Exile shortcut (Open the shortcut properties, and add a { -gc 2} after the last quotation mark). If this still doesn't help, try -gc 1. Doing this will increase load times between areas you have visited, and similar areas.

I get an error message and a crash after playing the game for a while.
EOUTOFMEMORY or Unable to Map File
This usually occurs when your game file runs out of ram, common on PCs with low ram or running 32bit versions of windows. Running the game with Texture Quality set to Medium usually fixes this, though having less than 4gb of ram will cause problems after changing areas a number of times. We will improve the memory recovery system in future.
You can also reduce the rate of these crashes slightly by adding -gc 2

That's the best temporary fix until we're able to solve memory fragmentation!

Disables the creation of the audio device
-ns
--nosound

Added a --nosound option to the client to turn off all sound.

"

Forces use of generic software audio device
-swa
--softwareaudio

Players getting BSODs due to using a Creative soundcard should now try adding --softwareaudio to the command-line of the game.

Will always use default settings set in the settings.cpp
-ud
--use-defaults

Are there no command line options for graphical settings? I always found this useful in other games when i had some other resource-intensive things running in the background.
Something like -w -res800x600 -graphics:low would be useful (didn't test if there already is something like this, because guessing the right combination is... tedious).
