How do I make the UI Bigger?

Post by ZeeBeas »

I am playing on a 3840x2160 monitor. The game looks fine, but the UI is so small I need to be a foot away from the screen to read anything. How do I make it bigger?

You can't right now...i already suggested to Devs that 2k-4k monitors are becoming very common these days...
Make friends with the other crabs or try to escape the bucket.

Only option - unless your OS supports scaling applications - you currently have is to lower the desktop resolution.

Just to note (since this has come up yet again)--this subject does come up with the client updates coming up. My understanding is that a scalable UI won't be in the new client, but is a goal. See here: viewtopic.php?f=49&t=61827&start=30#p833561 (Link is to the most recent update by loftar--chief engineer, code gnome, etc.)
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

I ran into the same issue... and lowered the resolution, it makes playing H&H easier, and other games run smoother as my laptop isn't that great :lol: I guess that's one of the unexpected upsides of having an old PC!
