CSSS -> Scaling? (3/23/2019 9:00:26 PM)

How do I get the game to scale? Even with tri-focal the text is far too small?

Unfortunately, the font is hard-coded for each window. I was able to change it on some windows, like the bottom left information pane. But even then there were little trade offs like the text doesn't align properly.
I also got rid of the drop shadow effect which I thought made the text less readable. They are small improvements. Ultimately, the best solution I found is to play on a bigger screen. :(

In Windows 10 you can "Make everything bigger".

Try 125 or 150%.

On a 4K monitor like I've got, 150% actually makes the game UI and font large and easy to read.

I use a 4k monitor and resorted to just changing my desktop resolution down to 1080 when I play Distant Worlds. Scaling the game text might work temporarily but it'll likely screw with other games (I found Mount & Blade: Warband was one particular offender that doesn't like windows scaling text.)
