Using the profiler, you can read detailed information about each frame, allowing you to view what exactly is going wrong or right. This makes for a powerful tool to micro-optimize lower-end hardware. [ToC] Getting Started Closing and opening the profiler is possible in 3 different ways, this makes it easy to adapt to any workflow you may already have. Open and close the profiler with a keybind press, ctrl + F6 on Windows or ctrl + option + F6 on macOS in-game or in-studio Play Solo mode. Open your escape menu and navigate to the Settings tab to enable or disable the profiler by switching the Micro Profiler setting to "On" or "Off". Launch the profiler via the console on the keybind F9, or if you're the developer of the game you can open your escape menu and navigate to the Settings tab, and select "Open Console" at the bottom. Navigate to the MicroProfiler tab and select Client to enable the profiler, or Off to turn it off. This also allows you to record server-side profile dumps, which is explained further below.
