UI scaling?

[Jochen Heiden]

Hello, playing the beta I play at 4K and the UI is extremely small and hard to see. Is there any way to scale the UI so it’s larger in 4K resolution?

I think it would be nice to have a slider for the ui size. Slightly larger would help as it is very small on my screen

Its so small its completely useless

For some screen sizes there's a workaround. I run it at 1920 x 1080 and that works for me.

Yes, reducing your resolution from 1440p or in my case 4k will increase the UI size but this is not the ideal solution, please put in actual UI scaling like so many other games have. @ 4k the UI is so tiny it is just about useless.

Almost every current gen GPU, even the low end can do 4k at 60fps in this game. Most of us would be fine with dropping in a file that has resized UI as an interim solution. Please do something, anything.

That "works" but typically looks awful since 2160p monitors do not look good scaling 1080p games

Unfortunately that's not an acceptable solution. As so many others have mentioned, UI scaling is a standard option on almost all other games. I have a high end computer with a 4K monitor and I do not want to dumb down my resolution because UI scaling doesn't exist. Please make this a priority.

Please UI scaling. I finally was able to get a nice fancy upgrade for my PC to run games at higher resolutions. I really don't want to reduce to 1080p just for UI; thats really bad.

and unfortunately it’s unplayable downscaling. I have not found a good way to do it with my 5800xt that makes it look half way decent

9 month later no update ... maybe i will buy the game if the ui upgrade will relase at my livetime.

Yeah I just don’t see this happening. Don’t buy this game if you plan to play with a 4K monitor

I'm playing Men of War games since Soldier: Heroes of World War II (2004 - В тылу врага) and it has always been a problem with the GEM Engine. I'm usually playing with Ultrawide 48:10 5760 x 1200 setup with 3 displays (NVIDIA Surround) but the engine has never scaled the HUD correctly to the central monitor. Nobody was able to fix that (not Best Way, Digitalmindsoft or Barbwire Studios). Its also a real problem for single Superwide 21:9 & 32:9 displays.

I just live with it, but it makes the game very hard to play with the UI elements too much left and right. Same for 4K on the usual 3840 x 2160 16:9 resolution with very small icons and fonts..

By the way, in the game "Steel Division: Normandy 44 (2017)" it works perfectly with Ultrawide 48:10 and Superwide 21:9 & 32:9 resolutions. The HUD is far more centered. "Easy fix" for that problem: Resolution width / 3 = width of entire HUD. Sure, usual 16:9 resolutions are very common, but today we have a lot of different displays aspect ratios (and scaling) that needs to be supported in 2021.

Examples from me from the game Steel Division:

oooff.... when I originally installed this game I had assumed I set the resolution to 3840x2160. However, I just changed the game to windowed mode so I could read tutorials while editing maps and when I switched it back to what I assumed I always had it set to, I was both happily surprised and disappointed. Happy because this game looks a hell of a lot better now for me but disappointed because the UI is far too small to play with. We need a fix asap. I'm surprised the game didn't come with UI scaling for 4k being that it released recently. I hope this is a top priority with an update very soon.

Been waiting since launch, my guess is we will be lucky if it ever gets added.

If it doesnt scale, i suspect they'd have remake it from scratch for each resolution. Going to take ages for that..
