screen is super zoomed in

[CrackdownStepdad]

just bought the game today. when i launch it, the game is zoomed in like 4x to the top left corner of what it should be displaying. i'm playing on a 4k monitor and i think that has something to do with it. what can i do to fix this?

You might try changing the resolution to lower. And try running in Windowed?
You can change that also in the rocksmith.ini file of your game. (In your install directory)

Hey CrackdownStepdad,

Further to ꧁☬⋆Cata༒leya22⋆☬꧂'s post - are you using any scaling changes?

If you go to your Windows Settings > Display > Scaling. Is this set to anything higher than 100%?

Also if you try using Alt + Enter to open Fullscreen does this help at all?

You can change screen resolution in the ini file.

Hi Ubi, this is still occurring. Yes, it is because we have the monitor scaled higher than 100%. Our monitors require this scaling. Other games function just fine independent of the scaling in windows setting. Please provide a different solution for this. Or help us "change screen resolution in the ini file" as Cata suggested, I at least do not know how. Thanks.

Hey iluvfatchics,

Does reducing the scaling before launching the game help at all?

As the game has ended development - we wouldn't be able to offer any alternative means of amending the game files to resolve this for you I'm afraid.

There was a really great answer in this other thread (worked fine for me) :

Pasting it here :

You can set Rocksmith to ignore the Windows scaling:

In Steam, right-click Rocksmith, and select Properties
Select "Local Files" then click "Browse"
Right-click on Rocksmith2014.exe and choose Properties
Select the "Compatibility" tab and click "Change high DPI settings"
In the box labeled "High DPI scaling override", put a checkmark in the box for "Override high DPI scaling behavior. Scaling performed by:" and select "Application"
Click "OK"
Click "Apply" then "OK"

Now Rocksmith will ignore the setting and you won't need to change it each time you run the game.

Heres a solution: press F11, then will be windowed mode. For this point you can already see all the game page. To do full screen mode, do: options --> visual settings--> then select windowed mode --> chose full screen.
