UI Upscale 2K & 4K

Description
-English Description-
This mod will upscale the user interface and text to a more eye-friendly state for 2K and 4K monitors.

-=IMPORTANT=-
Currently this mod requires manual installation.

SUBSCRIPTION TO MOD IS STILL MANDATORY!

The workshop version of this mod ignores interface upscale, when subscribed. Currently I have no idea why this happens. But there is a solution.
You have to manually copy ui_upscale.pak file to Starbound mod directory in your Steam here:
your-steam-directory\steamapps\common\starbound\mods

Simply place it inside the directory and everything will work as intended.
The file can be downloaded here[www.exoclan.com].


The mod should be compatible with almost anything as long as the other mods do not change 'interface.config' and 'chatbubbles.config' files. And even than it should not cause any incompatibilities or bugs, except the fact that upscale may no longer work ;).


-Russian Description-
Данный мод позволяет комфортно играть на 2К и 4К мониторах за счет увеличения размера интерфейса и текста.

-=ВАЖНО=-
В данный момент мод необходимо устанавливать вручную.

ПОДПИСКА НА МОД ВСЕ РАВНО ОБЯЗАТЕЛЬНА!

Версия этого мода в workshop'е игнорирует увеличение интерфейса по непонятным мне причинам. Однако есть решение проблемы.
Вам необходимо вручную скопировать файл ui_upscale.pak в директорию модов Starbound'а в вашем стиме:
директория-вашего-стима\steamapps\common\starbound\mods

Просто поместите файл туда и все будет работать как задумано.
Файл мода можно скачать здесь[www.exoclan.com].


Мод совместим практически с любым другим модом при условии, что другие моды не затрагивают файлы 'interface.config' и 'chatbubbles.config'. Но даже в этом случае мод не вызовет каких-либо поломок или багов кроме того факта, что скорее всего само увеличение интерфейса не будет работать.

I try to download the file and both Chrome and Firefox claim the file may have been tampered with, so I choose to download anyway and I cannot even extract the zip file?.

Also first time I've seen both browsers claim it's being delivered over "non-secure connection".

Breaks some descriptions, like how some words go over the box, like some weapon descriptions. Other than that, this is a GODSEND

Continuation of my previous post 2:
Another way to check if this is Windows the messes with your resolution and zoom-in bug - is to put size of text back to 100%. This will make your desktop text small as hell on 4k monitor, but will insure thaat there is no software scaling is happening on Windows-side.

Continuation of my previous post:
Go and find Starbound executable in your steam folder. You right click it and select properties. From there you select Compatability tab and click on Change high DPI settings button at the bottom area. There you check High DPI sacling override. Put a check next to Overide high DPI scaling behaving and select Application.
This should allow you to make sure that Windows does not scale your game before you scale it further with application itself. This trick works for many games by the way, especially if you are trying to run them in bordeless window and not in fullscreen and experiencing sometimes that the resolution is worng or the window is oversized despite the fact that the ingame menu shows you the correct resolution.

Indeed, what you are describing is very, very weird. 1 thing I can think of is the zoom level of windows for text. You know, when you right click on Desktop and select Display Settings, you have a field there that says Scale and Layout and usualy when you have 2k or 4k monitor the size of text is scaled to 125-150% or some people select even more. If this is your case than I woulkd suggest the following (because this might be actualy the issue). Check my other message due to the text limit.

I went in and changed the game settings (in game) to your screenshot resolution of 2560x1440 at 3x windowed. Then I attempted to play. Nothing changed. I quit and restarted, and the game maintained that same resolution setting in the options ONLY, but again, nothing was different in-game.

Weird part is I checked the config file and that also had the updated 2560x1440 resolution, but seemed to just generally default to 1280x720 and I dont know why. I tried something else, and attempted to change the resolution in the cofig file itself, then make it read only so the game wouldnt change it. But what ended up happeing is the game created a "config.tmp" file instead, which then defaulted to 1280x720 for the resolution.

Not sure what else to do lol. This is a weird issue.
