Text Display Problem

Post by nscalera »

No matter what screen resolution I try, the text displays far below the appropriate boxes/menus, making the game virtually impossible to play. My system meets the required specs ... any suggestions?

The usual reason this happens for games is that your display settings are set to something other than 96 DPI (the Windows default). Check your desktop properties.

Sadly these days, fewer and fewer game developers are making the screen elements of their games scalable. Thus, forcing gamers to run with small text and small icons on high resolution displays when they are not playing games.

Hi Guys,
I've tested both the font scaling and "Font Size" options, and neither of these is behind this problem. I suspect its a directX issue - nscalera can you try re-installing directX, and also your graphics card drivers. If the problem still occurs, can you create a dxdiag file (instructions on how to do this are on stickey'd on this forum) and send it to me at support@ssg.com.au
