tango4 -> RE: Just a few issues regarding High DPI scaling with 1.11 service update 1 (7/1/2016 2:08:56 PM)

Hi again guys,
Unfortunately, I discovered a few more issues after spending just a bit more time with the latest release.
As usual I made another video trying to show you the issues.
Regarding the "black text bar" you'll see that at some point in the video it does scale correctly, but i was not able to relate it to one action I did (after several tests).
The other issues I have are under some menus as you'll see in the video (Damage control, Magazine, Weapons, and WRA (not shown in the video, tell me if you need to see it)).

And one more thing I noticed, but about which I'm not sure there is a solution:
The "issue" I have is that the texts in the menus are a bit "blurry" or "pixelated", hard to describe it precisely, but that might be due to the way windows handles scaling. (But the general impression in CMANO is WAYYYYY BETTER now than when i rebooted my computer and forced my screen in 1080p).
To be a bit clearer, let me explain:
Usually, I have two typical use-cases on my 4K screen. If I play a "traditional" video game, it will run in full screen mode in 1080p, because my computer is not powerful enough to run most 3d games in 4k with a good level of details. In that case, the side effect is that the screen itself is a bit blurry, but for such games, that is usually not an issue.
The other use-case would be windows applications, like Chrome browser for example, where everything is rendered in 4K, with exceptionally clear fonts in the menus.
Now for CMANO, I do understand that it is impossible to draw the map in 4K because it would probably kill most computers ! But what would be nice (but possibly VERY time consuming for you, I don't know at all) would be to render all the interface in native 4K to avoid this pixelated effet, and keep drawing the map at a lower resolution to maintain performance. I think this is what paradox did with HOIIV (there is the option to draw the 3d part at a lower res while running the game in 4k).
Honestly, I just took the opportunity of this post to mention this suggestion, but I understand that there are 90% chances that it is way too much effort for a small result.
To make things clear once again, if you do solve the small issues I mentioned in the video, the game will be PERFECTLY playable in 4K, and I really appreciate that fact.
