PIPBOY SteamDeck
Hey Folks,
i got as problem with my pipboy while playing on the Steam Deck. The Game runs brilliant, but the Pipboy looks so small, even when i use the zoom when im in pipboy mode.
Anybody have a solution? :hazmat:

Are you using a monitor or a tv or what with it? Any resolution scaling might be the issue there, depending on the actual size and specs of it.
No i play the game on the go. Not docked. Resolution is 1280x800!

On a reddit post someone with a similar problem though on a larger monitor says this:

"On your Deck, go to FO4's properties. Under resolution, set it to 1920x1080. Then in the launcher or in-game you should be able to set the resolution to 1920x1080." and
"Note that they are referring to the game’s launch properties/settings via the Deck menus, not any in-game setting."

I'd suggest maybe since you say you're on a slightly different size (or perhaps I'm misinterpreting either your scale or theirs) try adding your specific screen size that way (rather than the 1920 size which is obviously a monitor).
When im in the Powerarmor the pipboy goes into fullscreen, but when im not in the armor the pipboy screen is very small. I dont think the resolution is the problem. I do not play docked.
In the video at 01:15 the pipboy is in fullscreen.....my problem is that i can see the background and my arm and trhe display of the pipboy is much smaller.

Try changing the fov for your pipboy.

This worked great. Its a bit finicky on the deck to get the console to open...but it works very well! Thank you!

Oh good! Not having a steam deck I'm glad that there are folks who can figure that out.
