Cant set resolution above 1600x900.

So, i have a strange problem with the game, i cant set the resolution higher then 1600x900.
There are no further options, no matter if i set it to Fullscreen or Windowed.
See screenshot: https://prnt.sc/qp89f6

Playing on a 4k Asus monitor so this is a bit strange.
Anyone knows a solution?

Yeah, thx. Already found it.
Also found the reason, since i use a 4k monitor i have set a 200% zoom for text and UI on my desktop in the Windows settings.
Apparently Atelier Ayesha gets confused by that and thinks 1600x900 is the current resolution because of that.

If i turn the zoom off i can select resolution up to 4k in the game.
Pretty dumb but this whole port seems not that great so far.
Lots of micro stutters and lag, no graphic options whatsoever and falls under 60 FPS in a lot of scenes.
And that on a RTX 2080. Koei Tecmo gets worse with every port it seems. :/

Once you get a 4k monitor you should get used to doing this: go to game executable, properties, compatibility, change high dpi settings, make sure override dpi scaling is checked and set to application.

Pretty much do this for all games before you try them. Windows tries to scale applications based on your desktop scaling, which you probably never want. A lot of games have this set already, but many, especially ports, don't.

you can also go to the game exe's properties and tell it do disregard DPI scaling.
