The game defeated me without even really playing. Tiny fonts won.

<r> I bought "Distant Worlds" some months ago, although hardcore strategy games are usually not my cup of tea. The scifi scenario and the gameplay mechanics just looked too appealing for me. <br/>
<br/>
Unfortunately I soon had to realise that either... <br/>

RE: Resolution? Text size change?

<t> Well, no help in sight... <br/>
<br/>
I was tinkering with the game for some time and still could not find adjustments that would fix my problem. There seems to be no way to enlarge those tiny little letters.<br/>

I will stop buggering with my problem, kick the game in the bin (and ...

<r> @ Tedesco<br/>
<br/>
Nope, I don´t have the expansion. It is, as I take it, not available in Germany right now. And why would I buy it? I have not even played the first game. <E>:D</E> <br/>
Anyway, I think when the game had a problem with your files then it would not even start, would it ...

RE: Resolution? Text size change?

<t> Hi Tedesco,<br/>
<br/>
again, thank you very much for your efforts. Your files do exactly what they are supposed to do - I am finally able to read at least a part of the text without problems. Aaah, what a relieve.<br/>
<br/>
Unfortunately every other entry, like the key entries in the ...

RE: Resolution? Text size change?

@ Tedesco

Thanks a lot for doing this for me!

Being able to read the Galactopedia would be a huge improvement, so if you upload the files I would be very very grateful. [&o]
I take it that I have to drop those files into the customisation folder?

Hey,<br/>
<br/>
I have the same specs, 22' monitor and 1920x1080 and I can read everything.<br/>
I'll check at home later and maybe I can figure out how to help.<br/>
<br/>
Thanks,<br/>

RE: Creature Contest: The Demented

<t> I am not sure about the micromanagement, but I like the idea. As I can see it one might use these creatures as a weapon. Maybe it could be possible to actually collect them with a carrier and then bring this carrier close to an enemies ships etc to drain fuel/ressources - softening him up for ...

RE: Resolution? Text size change?

<r> Hm, I did not know this. I have read the wishlist and there is an awful lot of things to do as I see it. And I understand that every user has the same rights, so I will just have to wait.<br/>
<br/>
On the other hand - most users are at least able to actually play the blooody thing. And from ...

RE: Creature Contest: Legendary ghost ship

I can´t help it, but this sounds and looks quite like something from Warhammer 40.000. At least thats what comes into my mind when I read "gothic ship with lots of inaccurate guns". :)

That nothing was done about the resolution is really a shame. I was looking forward to getting bashed in space, but right now I have not played one single hour. Right now DW means nothing to me than a loss of 40 € (thats 54 USD ...

RE: Resolution? Text size change?

<r> so has anything changed with the latest updates? I just bought the game and I can´t find any options to change resolution and especially text size.<br/>
<br/>
I am using a 22`` TFT and a 1920x1080 resolution and I can´t read anything. I am not the type who starts a rant easily, but this is at ...
