Hello,
There seems to be 2 major issues. DPI scaling and some kind of mouse pointer issue.
everything in the game is SUPER small people online have suggested using something like disabling DPI awareness in your app but I don't know how to do that with haven since its a java app.
2nd issue... when I login I can click all menus I can walk via the map... However I can left click ONCE in the game region to walk but after that it will not recognize my left or right clicks thereafter... I don't really know whats going on with that and I am hoping since the surface is fairly popular that someone else has run into this.

Re: H&H on Surface pro
Can confirm that dpi scaling sucks.
But that applies for pretty much every, single, desktop, application. or game

Re: H&H on Surface pro
do you have java 64bit (windows offline version) ? (and any other version removed as well?)

Re: H&H on Surface pro
java version does not have anything to do with dpi, offline version just means it does not use launcher to download the stuff but instead downloads everything when you download the first executable.Aethyr wrote:do you have java 64bit (windows offline version) ?

It does not really matter.

Re: H&H on Surface pro
This will most likely solve your movement problem, as there is a bug with intel graphics and 32bit Java as stated in the Bug report creation HOWTO.Aethyr wrote:do you have java 64bit (windows offline version) ? (and any other version removed as well?)
As a workaround you can reduce the resolution of your Desktop for the time you play H&H, this should solve your scaling issue until the developers finally come around to make the UI of the client scale to a user preference.

Re: H&H on Surface pro
I had the same problem with a 4k laptop. Yesterday I tried again, and it does not seem to be solved... everything is still microscopic (and thus the game is unplayable, sadly...)jorb wrote:Don't hold your breath.Granger wrote:until the developers finally come around to make the UI of the client scale to a user preference.
Resolved.
Do I have to do something special for it? Or just wait for the weekly patch?

Re: H&H on Surface pro
It didn't solve the problem: I've switched from 4k to ~1900x1000 and nothing changed. I supposed that's because the automatic zoom (I don't know its name) also changed from 2.5x to 1.25x, but if I keep this to 2.5x everything else on the PC will become too big...Granger wrote:Granger wrote:As a workaround you can reduce the resolution of your Desktop for the time you play H&H, this should solve your scaling issue
Anyway, do you know if I can write a script to change the resolution and start hafen with a single click? (Maybe amber could help with this...?)
