UI Size

[IainMcNeil]

There have been a lot of people with higher resolutions complaining about the in map UI saying it is too small. I think we need to look at 2 different UI layouts, if that is possible. One for high res and one for the rest. We'd need to decide a cut off point. Maybe anything over 1400 pixels width and 800 height? Right now it feels people in high res are struggling with the game because text & buttons are too small. This is likely to get worse as time goes on and monitor resolutions increase. Is this possible and how much work would it be?

Sure, but they are eg. complaining about the small play button on the campaign and scenario menus and small fonts there, but those are placeholder!

And playing the game on 2560x1440 screen, is a huge screen.

I agree the fonts are to small on the unit info stats.

We can put it on the wishlist, but let the game begin at the campaign menu that is finished and it will be a total different feel.

Lukas we have to make sure the campaign and scenario screens are in for the next Beta. We have been working on it last night so it should be no problem.

My suggestion is that for big resolutions all the unit info is displayed all in the main UI as we have room for it and the minimap goes down at the button and the smaller 6 buttons are a bit enlarged.

Actually, we have a lot of complaints on the main screen, and I doubt that new game setup screen will change that. In particular, all fonts in the main UI are too small for a large screen.

If I had all UI graphics in 1.5x or 2x size, probably making an alternative large layout using them would not be too hard.

I'm not worried about the menus - I mean the main game map.

I agree

Have you mailed Vince as he has the Main UI original ones, or do you need some help from us?
