There is talk about editing the Opart 4.ini file but there is no such file in my "The Operational Art of War IV" directory. The only .ini file is "Opart 3 Fonts Chinese.ini". This concerns the Steam edition.
For Steam it is typically "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Operational Art of War IV" but there are no relevant .ini files there. Everything else is there though.ORIGINAL: Shadrach

The file is in your "Documents\My Games\The Operational Art of War IV" directory.

Fix #1, Full screen mode with resolution change. This will increase the size of the entire screen, but it may make things a bit fuzzier.
Edit your Documents/My Games/The Operational Art of War IV/Opart 4 file and add the following three lines to the end. 1024 and 768 are just examples, you can put in anything that your monitor supports. You can find those by right-clicking on the desktop and going to Display Settings. There should be a drop down list of supported values.
ChangeScreenResolution=Y
ScreenY=768
ScreenX=1024
Fix #2, change the fonts.
Edit your Documents/My Games/The Operational Art of War IV/Opart 4 Fonts file and replace the contents as a starting point. We'll add some of the best from the community into a patch, and they can, of course, be downloaded from the forums.
Isn't the Opart4 fil an *.exe file ??????
There are examples here. I'll try to update this post as better ones become available.

Long term, I'm going to look into an option to 'rightsize' all the dialogs, or probably just the graphics on the dialogs. I don't have an ETA for that, and it may make things blurrier. Rightsizing the graphics will be the first thing I try. I need to fix the 'critical' bugs first.
can't find an opart fonts file .... changing the *.exe file didn't do shit ...... any other suggestions ?scout1 wrote: Sun Feb 19, 2023 10:52 pmralphtricky wrote: Fri Nov 17, 2017 12:14 pm There are two possible fixes.
