2k & 4k Resolutions

USS_Zus · 04-20-2022, 01:22 PM

I've been experimenting with higher resolutions but have been unable to find a setup that looks good. If I run the game in 4k and don't use the Windows text scaling option then the text is sharp but difficult to read. Conversely if I use the scaling option like 150% and 200% the text is easy to read but is blurry and makes my eyes go a little sideways and it seems like we lose some of the viewable in game stats during a game.

Just wondering what setup anyone else has found to be the best when running in higher resolutions?

I have an ultrawide monitor (3440px resolution) and I'd been using it on 125% in the previous version, which seems to be OK for me (the text is slightly blurry but nothing terrible). That said, I'm going to try 100% for a ltitle while and see how it treats me.

dola,

Now that I'm playing it here, it definitely feels like the game "wants" to be in 100% mode, even with super high resolutions. YMMV and I can understand if the fonts look too small in-game (although, can't you update those? I'll check in the game...).

trola,

Yes, you can definitely change the font size via the File => Settings menu. You can also change to a (limited number of) different font(s). I just moved to Roboto, which looks a little more like Helvetica than the default to me, and Bigger.

Thanks Syd I've been experimenting with the in game options too but they just don't seem to be enough to fix it. We need something that is twice as big as the current maximum for 4k I think. I'll let everyone know if I come up with a better solution, for now I think 4k and 150% scaling will have to work.
