2560x1440 problem
Having issues with the screen conforming correctly to my resolution at 2560x1440. When I change the option in the menu to my native resolution I can't see the starting menu's tabs and in game I can't see any of the icons on the top, bottom, or sides of the screen. I even tried going down to 1080 after and the problem stayed the same (in game). I restarted the game and the same problem. Anyone else having a problem playing the game at 2560x1440?

I posted this in the "Bug Reporting Thread" as well. I just wanted to see if anyone had a quick fix or advice for this.

I originally was playing the game at 1080. I just got my new monitor today and haven't had any issues with any other game besides this so far.

Are you running in OpenGL?

Try making sure your windows Text size is at 100%. Some times if you have changed the "make it easier to read what's on your screen" to 125% or 150% some games get cropped around edges.

Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Make it easier to read what's on your screen

I have encounted this problem with quite a few games. And yes, I am running 2560x1440 myself without any issues. Well, other than having to retick fullscreen after I alt+tab.

You know that was one of the first things I did when I loaded up on the monitor is change the text size. I'm going to try that and post back. Thank you :)

Yup. That was it. Thank you! This game is freggin' tiny at this resolution though! I think I might just play it at 1080p.

Don't play 1080. It will make the screen blurry and ruin the sharp charm of the pixel style.

2560x1440
Full Screen
Zoom level 3 (or 4)

That's what you are after.

Running 2560x1440 as well and it's fine. I even use the lowest Zoom level (2). Using a Yamakasi Catleap 2B Extreme S-IPS Overclockable Monitor @ 118Hz.

I have however noticed a bug with Starbound's resizing if you've got Aero/dwm etc disabled though..
