About the game resolution issue

Post by Foxy101 »

My laptop screen has a resolution of 2560x1440 with a zoom level of 200%. Even after following online methods to adjust the DPI and running the game in compatibility mode, it didn't work. It seems the game interface is locked to a fixed resolution. Under these conditions, the game display is incomplete, and I can't even click the back button. I hope the developers can add a feature to adjust the game resolution!!!
(PS: Changing the resolution scaling to 175% displays the game normally, but it appears blurry. This is a temporary workaround, but not a long-term solution.)

yes a known issue and already reported, will wait and see how it's fixed, as it seems to be a scaling issue with values above 100% even though windows 11 recommends a given range once using 4k

This will get a review over the holidays, and if we can make adjustments, get it into an update early next year. This is a minefield of issues involving monitor sizes, multiple screens, DPI, Windows scaling, and the limitations of the code UI elements. We thought we had most of the bases covered, but we are seeing a few of these outlier setups. Thanks for reporting and giving us details on your setup and OS settings.
OTS is looking forward to Southern Storm getting released!
