Scaling/Text Scaling?
Posted: Tue Nov 25, 2025 3:51 pm
Hi, is there any way to scale the text? Or perhaps that's something to consider for whatever's next? But a lot of us, well, are aging and the eyes are no longer 20/20.

How big is your monitor? What is your Windows Text Scaling % set to?

I think it's more screen resolution.
I have the same issue ... it's difficult to read text. I'm running a 27in monitor at 2560X1440 which is the recommended setting. Scale is 100% which is also recommended setting.
When I push it to my other monitor - also 27in but at 1920 X 1080 (recommended setting) - it's much easier to read.

im using a iiyama G Master G4380UHSU 43"" VA Gaming Monitor with UHD Resolution, 144Hz Refresh Rate and 0.3ms MPRT
with windows 11pro on latest build 25H2 clean install with 3840×2160 resolution with a windows default recommended scale of 300%
using the steam version on latest beta, also tried none beta before and game scale doesn't work, changed to 200% and it worked perfectly, but that's not the windows default for the resolution and not comfortable either for the eyes as too small
flashpoint campaigns southern storm and red storm both work perfectly in steam on the same settings btw.
Just for information as like i said, both other games work flawlessly in steam on the same test pc on the same settings with no issue on resolution or scale and while changing the screen size isn't an issue, then the small scale of the txt just gives eye strain, so not ideal

and apart from steam overlays, no other installed or ever used, discord is browser only for me
so play buttons are missing, or anything below which isn't shown on the screen shots

game works on 250%, which doesn't hurt the eyes and does look better than 200% tbh
takes all of 2 seconds to change, and works well with windows 11 and steam in changing but doesn't work out of the box by default, something some members will have to manually change on a given screen res and scaling size like i've done and have shown
