Dual Monitor Bug (4k Primary, 1080p Secondary)

[hypercybermegatron]

Hey Devs, just drawing a bug to your attention.

When first opening the game, it attemps to "extend" the game screen on two 2 monitors by spreading the menu screen over the two. This happens when 4k is automatically detected as the main resolution.

Disabling the 2ndary display in windows using Win+P and selecting "PC screen only" did not fix the issue. It still spread the visuals over the two screens in an awkward way.

I resloved this by selecting 1440p as the main resolution, which disables the 2ndary display and displays the correct 1440p resolution of the game on the primary monitor. Please contact me if I can be of any further assistance in resolving this bug.

I'm having a very similar issue. I have dual 4K monitors and if I pick 4K resolution, the screen is gigantic. If I pick 1440p, it's the correct size, but it's blurry, because it isn't matching the native resolution of the monitor. Did you ever get a fix?

No unfortunately. The issue you describe seems related to what I was experiencing. However, I just discovered that Windows scaling was causing a Mortal Kombat game of mine not to display in 4k. My work around here was to disable Windows scaling (set it to 100%) log out, then log in and change the settings to 4k in the game (the 4k option should now appear). Haven't tested this on Brigador yet, this is something you might want to try.

If you get the game to display at 4k you should be able to change the Windows scaling setting back to your desired scaling level after doing this without upsetting the 4k game resolution.

Bumping this up due to the new influx of players

Dual 1080p, I think same issue. I don't think it's stretching though, it's more like duplicating and not actually duplicating. The menu that responds is on monitor 1, but the place I have to click is monitor 2. Didn't happen on first startup, started after second.

Had the same problem, setting windows scaling to 100% fixed this for me

This issue is an odd one and even though we're late in responding, without further details (see the pinned thread in this subforum) we can only give a few suggestions, and not solutions.

The first one is that your NVidia or AMD graphics card might have some particular software bundled with their drivers that could be causing this. Please investigate your system tray and check out the settings - this software may be causing issues or forcing certain behavior on a dual monitor setup.

The second method is within the game alternating between variants of display (under Settings > General) and seeing if that helps - remember that even in windowed mode you can enable "Lock mouse to window", meaning your cursor won't escape and click outside the window during play.

The third method is to alter the DPI settings of the game executable. This is done outside the game from Windows. Where you've stored your games folder on Steam (typically it's C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\) will vary, but this third method is more aimed at people with only *one* 4K monitor - not two, but it might also help. Here's how you change the DPI settings specifically for the game.

Go into the games main folder and right-click "Brigador.exe"

Click "Properties"
Click "Compatibility"
Tic "Disable fullscreen optimizations"

Next:

-Click "Change High DPI Settings"

-Tic the box under "Program DPI"
(This Settings To fix scaling problems for this program instead of the one in settings..)

-Tic the box under "High DPI scaling override"
(Override high DPI scaling behavior. Scaling Performed by..)

-Set this to: Application

-Click OK
-Click Apply

In general if you're having any issue of any kind, please consult this thread first and give us as much information as possible.
