Game does not fit on my screen, cant rescale in game

[kongxinga]

Hi,

 

This is strange, but I have a new $k monitor running at 4k resolution.

When I start up BOS everything is huge, which means I stare at the plane in the hangar and am unable to click on any options to fix this.

 

Basically I I see is a focused view of the plane in the title screen, and the options on the right are all off screen, leaving me puzzled on what to do.

 

Can I scale the resolution properly on 4k? The plane looks so tantalizing, but I can't seem to be able to play the game.

 

***Ah found it out. There are settings within the launcher, and I need to use full screen mode.

Just out of curiosity, if you set native monitor resolution in game you don't need to use "full screen". This happens when we use NVidia DSR which renders the game to a higher resolution than the monitor, so we need full screen to scale it down. Check your DSR maybe by mistake is on.

I had this problem as well. What is happening is that for some reason BoS is scaling itself up based upon the text size you set for your Windows desktop. If you set your desktop for 3840x2160 and the text size in Windows Control panel for 1x, and run BoS at your native res, without Full Screen checked, you will be fine. Of course your text in Windows will be tiny. If you make text size 2x then BoS will be double the size. I had this happen with Windows 7 and 10 alike.

If you check Full Screen in BoS that will of course fix the problem.

 

1CGS is aware of this issue. I'm not sure if it's a big problem. There is sometimes the advice that BoS runs better without Full Screen checked but I haven't noticed that. In any case I always run with it on now.

Looks like this has been fixed now in 1.106
