Title: Scaling for Resolution
Post by: acvyse on August 26, 2015, 10:17:51 AM

Hi all,

Many apologies if this was already answered....I haven't had time to look through the entire forum. I was wondering if there is a scaling feature (or will be one in the future) for those of us with very hi-res screens such as 3200 x 1800.

Thanks!

Same here  :) , the UI looks really tiny on a 3840 X 2160 (or 4K) screen!

Picture for comparision:

It's barely even readable!  :-\

Huh? Isn't the forum here to report issues like these? ???

I'm confused now...

It is don't worry. Surprised scaling isn't already introduced but I haven't had any problems on my measly 720p. Maybe a short term solution would be to either put your resolution down or possibly the build in windows scaling could work.

Ok, thanks for helping and clarifying  :)

This is an issue that we want to fix but is not simple. We're talking about how we want to fix this.

Any update on this?

It's such a beautiful game and it looks amazing on my 5k screen!  But, it's not playable because of text scaling.   :-\

Unlike my last post... we are now actively working on solving this problem and have made good progress...

See "User Interface Rewrite" here:

Sorry it's taking so long... replacing all the UI has been a bigger project than we expected it to be.
