Optimum Settings for a 3840x2160 monitor?

[jollyjack]

Each time after an update it seems my scaling has changed.

f.i i had smaller tiles for the Campaigns overview page, but now it's back to about 4 on each row.

 

Noticed in game start the text IL2 Sturmovik halfway during boot changes in size, about 20% larger.

 

So a Q: How and where do you properly set up IL2 scaling for a 4k monitor?

Can only tell you what my settings are.  Nothing changes after an update. 

 

In OS:

If you right click on the desktop and go into Display Setting, what do you have for "Change the size of text, etc..."?  SB 100%

Also is your resolution set to 3840 x 2160?

 

In game:

Under Graphic settings: Resolution should be native.  I have UI set to auto.

Thanks, something must have changed in my setup too that's not right, i have a a 3080ti,

and in the viewer sometimes a color part flickers while moving a skin with camera view (mousing around).

I had the recommended 150%. Just tried 100% i need ants eyes or a microscope now, but i'll give it a try with my reading glasses ?

But Nah, the game scaling is behaving the same; i also use your settings for graphics BTW.

Could you put up a screenshot that shows the issue from the OP?

[jollyjack]

Screenshot?  Scaling in the game seems always the same, only the amount of campaigns in that specific window seems to have changed.

It's now 4 on one row, and i once had i think 6 on one row ...

 

PS i can change scaling for windows itself OK to 100% instead of the 150% (as MS recommends for 4k monitors), but that does not change game scaling behavior.

I notice that at game start the white IL2 Sturmovik letter size changes and increase about 20% halfways through game booting.

 

Maybe it has to do with NVDIA settings?

I am not familiar with the scaling of, "It's now 4 on one row, and i once had i think 6 on one row ..." as I assume this applies to off-line campaigns only which I don't do.  If I knew exactly where you are in the game I could replicate it here to see what I have.  A screenshot of the "It's now 4 on one row" might be useful.

Do you have Interface Autoscale turned on?  When I had it turned on the startup font would change size.  I now have it turned off and have the UI scale set to 150% in the Graphics settings.  The font stays constant now and the in-game font is now larger than the autoscale font.  I have a 3840x2160 4k Predator.

This may be what you are referring to.  In the in game graphic settings there is a UI Scale.  I have this set to Auto.

FYI i just had issues with too large scaling on my 4k monitor, and in settings 100% would not work anymore. Got fixed only by importing an old startup.cfg in to my data folder and a reboot ...
