Text Size

Post by Mooha »

Hey there! Could I get some advice on how to change the UI(?) size of my client? I'm running the game for the first time and right now the text size is too small to read. Map is otherwise fine, text size is the main issue. I've already tried changing my screen resolution to no avail.

edits: current resolution is 1920x1080, text is still too small to read- doesn't seem to change the size when I change the resolution or make it fullscreen, however.

Thanks!

There's not any feature to scale the UI implemented yet, you can only change your resolution ... I can understand that learning the game in those conditions is pretty harsh but I can guarantee to you that once you know the game is not a problem anymore.
We already have suggested to devs plenty of times and they are aware about that ... but you can always complain again in Critique & Ideas telling them how much they sucks and telling them good, and maybe describing your main problems as a new player. Cheers

In the meantime, you could use a custom client ... :)

With Amber client you can bump the font size up a bit, by up to 3 points I think. For me that still wasn't enough, so I also changed the UI font to Helvetica. Any font that works well at small sizes and is naturally large will work. It's not ideal, but it's a lot less headache inducing.

Oh this is a dream come true, thank you so much! I'm actually having a bit of tourble with amber clinet - the game keeps crashing every time I try to load the map - but I can already read the text before it crashes - so improvement!

Thank you!

The Amber topic in the wizards tower has some information about that issue and how to fix it.
