Screen Size/Resolution Question

JPL86 · 03-25-2016, 09:40 PM

The first screenshot is my manager's screen from OOTP16. The second screenshot is the same screen but from OOTP17.

All the settings and resolution choices are identical in both games (except for the skin). Notice how many more sections/boxes of information I have in 16 vs 17. How can I get OOTP17 to look like OOTP16.

I've tried several settings combinations from the OOTP Setup Screen... changing the Widow Size, Resolution, text size, etc. I just can not get OOTP 17 to look they way OOTP 16 did. Does anyone have any idea why?

Same problem happened in the OOTP9>OOTP10 conversion. Something's weird here.

Try this:

Locate your OOTP 17 icon, right click -> properties -> compatibility tab -> toggle the high DPI setting. Restart the game. That will fix your problem.

Thanks BusterKing. That did the trick. Would have never of thought to do that.
