Ah well if you are running 1080p then you are already at the games optimal resolution. My fix was for those on 2k or 4k panels and wouldn't do anything for you anyways. As to the greyed out part that seems to be an issue with the ...

Any way to make UI visible?

<t> Hello, I recently re-purchased DW:Universe and, after much research was able to launch the game in Windows 10. <br/>

I am playing on a 19" gaming laptop whose resolution is set to 1920x1080. <br/>
I am unable to decipher the UI. I cannot complete the first tutorial (getting around ...

RE: Update question

Oh! Thank you! I didn't realize that. For some odd reason, the "downloads" was showing me only demos and trailers, so I thought I had to go to "members". Thank you.

Update question

<t> I recently relocated and reinstalled DW:Legends and have enjoyed so far. The update I downloaded and which seems to be the latest is the 1.7.0.20. <br/>
<br/>
I am confused on two counts: <br/>
1. This seems to be in beta and have been in beta for a long time now. <br/>
2. There are new ...

Back after massive crash: suggestion to restart?

<t> Hi there, I've been gone almost six months, the last time I was here was just after I had moved to the United States, I had seen that during my move there had been a patch, I DLed it and installed it, and fired up DW:Legends. Something went wrong, however, it couldn't find some font or some ...

RE: 1.7.16 cannot start: need image?

I uninstalled, but cannot reinstall. I got DW and RotS to install, but installing Legends always fails. It says a "decompression error" has occurred with ..../spaceport.png. Argh! What am I doing wrong? Or how can I simply get this to install again?!?
Thank you for your help

RE: 1.7.16 cannot start: need image?

Thank you. Do I need to completely uninstall everything, and then install DW, DW:RotS and DW:L one after the other? Sorry for pestering, I am really a computer idiot and afraid of unistalling. Thank you.

1.7.16 cannot start: need image?

After updating to the latest official patch, I cannot get DW to start, I get a small popup windows-looking window with the error message: "Cannot load image: blahblahblah_png_10" (sadly I cannot seem to copy that text).
I am not very computer saavy, can anyone help me?
Thank you

RE: Distant Worlds - Legends Gets a Massive Update and Sale!

Just curious, since there are still a couple of bugs in .16, will this patch get updated in any way soonish? I mean: no new features, merely bugfixes.

RE: Terraforming Facilities - how do you know where they are needed?

I'm with Ashbery. I have no idea what to spend my cash on once the mid-game is over. I build whatever I can on everything, just for something to do between waiting for my crash research programs to finish.

RE: resources are too abundant

This has been seconded and thirded to the fourth power on numerous threads. Most common suggestions seem to be sliders in game setup allowing us to drastically reduce the amount of resources (separate for all resource types) at game setup.

RE: Other Empires colonizing 'my' planets

I'm in the minority here, but I recommend playing 1.7.0.6 -- it runs stable for me. DW has some glitches, it appears, in the beta versions.

RE: Other Empires colonizing 'my' planets

<t> As far as I can tell, everything is working as designed in what you described above, if that unoccupied planet was not in your sphere of influence. Those colonizers who colonized that planet were not attacking you. The planet is not "yours" until you colonize it. To answer your question: you ...
