Problem on high DPI system.

[sagji]

I am trying to run the demo on Windows 7 64 bit.

If I just run it as installed the game runs but the game window is under the windows taskbar (which I have on the right of my display) which makes it impossible to advance to a new turn.

If I change the compatibility settings and check the disable display scaling on on high DPI settings then I don't get the taskbar on top of the window, however all the text looks to be too large - most noticeable is the text in the 1st tutorial extends off the right of the window for it. The game is running at a higher resolution - the unit window doesn't go as far across the display and there are black borders on either side of the menu screen - the one with new game.

My display is 2560x1600 with fonts set at 150% - 144 DPI.

This is indeed an engine limitation, it works with 96 DPI for fonts. There is a work around though, which would be to reduce the size of the fonts used in proportion to your DPI settings, e.g reduce them by a third, as you have increased them by 50%. You should go to Rise of Prussia\ROP\GameData, there you will find Fonts.ini, open it with notepad. You should see

// Font #0
{Font}
Verdana

8
0
0
{/Font}

etc.

Here the font size is 8, change it to 5 or 6 and do the same operation (reducing by a third) for all fonts used, save and launch the game. Hopefully it will help. But true, the engine was not mean to support others DPI than the standard one, sorry.

Vous pouvez essayer mes fichiers pour le 144 DPI (mettre dans Settings et GameData).
Il vous faudra changer le 1600x900 que j'utilise (hum en fait j'y joue quasiment pas mais ils méritent) lors des jeux Ageod pour mon écran 1920x1080. Peut-être en 1920x1200 pour un écran 2560x1600.
EDIT: Woops, in English too: You may have to edit with notepad the 1600 and 900 in the Display file to fit a downgraded resolution (my monitor is natural 1920*1080) of your screen, so as the 144dpi fonts are better read.
