No 4K UI scale?
Playing on a 4k monitor but everything is too small. The only reason I don't play in 1080p is because I constantly alt tab because of work lol. Doing that on a small res is annoying because the screen has to adjust to the natural 4K res after alt tabin. Is there a txt file or a mod that scales this bad boy up?

I mean, there might be, but it's an old game, these games were not designed for those types of resolutions. You could make one of those shortcuts and place them on your desktop, which alter the resolution with 1 click of a button. Have one for 1080p, 1440p, 2160p, the most important ones, heck, maybe even a 480 for some REALLY old games. I don't know if you need the 4k resolution for work, but if you don't you might wanna look into that.

It looks like it will never be added either by the community or the devs themselves

Found a thread somewhere that works well without installing any mods - might be GeForce specific, though.

* Full-screen
* 2954 x 1662
* Enable Image Scaling on NVIDIA Control Panel

GeForce settings say 2954 x 1662, but in-game indicates 2560 x 1440, so I don't know what the actual resolution is. Videos for a recently captured game indicate 2560 x 1440. Don't know what this means, but the image scaling is "Sharpen 50, Render Resolution 77% (2954 x 1662)".

The game settings page is reduced to the set resolution, but the game play is scaled up to 3840 x 2160.

I'm obviously not familiar with the details but was able to find instructions on the internet. In theory, the settings can be set for each game, but I haven't needed to since the scaling isn't used for games that already support 4k.

I do remember that it's in the 3D options which I thought was a bit odd.
