[Q]: Is there a way to increase the size of the UI (Inventory/right side log screen]
Hi. I tried looking for a answer but i couldn't find any, so i'll put my question here.

I'm playing SS2 on a 2048x1152x32 resolution on 23" screen with the standard recommended mods, but i've hard time managing my inventory and reading the log screen because the're so tiny. To overcome this problem I play the game @ 720p but that kinda downgrades my mods.

So is there a .cfg tweak I can pull so that the UI is scaled bigger then the normal size?

Thank you.

Ok I found a way to fix it.
In the cam_ext.cfg config file i've changed the ";d3d_disp_scaled_2d_overlay" to

"d3d_disp_scaled_2d_overlay 1280 720"

now my native res is 2048x1152, but the UI is @ 1280x720
i'm sure i'm not the first to figure this out :$ but hell..

actually, the first thing to try is
d3d_disp_scaled_2d_overlay 64
that should result in optimal HUD scaling. you should only force the HUD resolution when that does not work properly.
