Nekrooo.1869 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Hi Guys, Is it just for me, or the UI and the cursor became bigger for everyone? I set the UI size for small and I'm using the best resolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekrooo.1869 Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 I've found the answer (DPI-aware). Pls close the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariurotl.3718 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Uncheck the new DPI option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ubi.4136 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 The new DPI scaling is on by default every time I log in. It is crashing my graphics driver before I can even get to the check box to uncheck it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seteruss.4058 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 dpi scaling keep resetting to on every time i log in. Also launcher is huge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrimfrostsage.9074 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 The DPI Scaling option is greyed out and cannot be unchecked. Doesn't matter if I'm in windowed mode or a resolution mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Olson.8439 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 DPI scaling is enabled on 64-bit only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrimfrostsage.9074 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Then something's still wrong. I play 32-bit and the UI is messed up there. How can I turn off the effects of the DPI-Scaling in that case? 'Cause it is most certainly doing the same thing there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea if it will work but can you right click your shortcut and on the compatibility tab you can tick the over ride dpi scaling. Can try it i guess.....

LaCoria.8549 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 So every time I've logged out and back in I've had to uncheck the DPI option to scale it down. Is this intentional, or is just not saving my settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archranis.2375 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Same problem here. I am turning it off but after re-logging it's back on again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megis.9264 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Small interface size looks absolutely awful since the patch, regardless whether DPI scaling is turned on or off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boysenberry.1869 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I think it would have been better if DPI scaling defaulted to off and then people could have chosen to turn it on. Having it on automatically is just going to bother a lot of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raguel.9402 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Turned DPI scaling off and I'm good now :) but at first I was wondering if my resolution got changed xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crivdarr.7439 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Any one know how i can OFF DPI scaling ? I play on 32 bit, i try but i cant off. For me its not good option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepersevenfiveseven.3296 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Thanks for updating us with the solution, game looked awful suddenly after updating and I couldn't tell why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moira Shalaar.5620 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Wow that was awful ! ! ! I'm not sure what DPI scaling is supposed to do, but it made my retina screen look like it was running in 1024x768! Thanks for posting a solution, I certainly second the suggestion to have it turned off by default. Even having read that it was there it took me a bit to find the box to deselect.

lynspottery.6529 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Launcher window also affected: [i1292.photobucket.com/albums/b561/lynspottery/WoW/gw2%20launcher%20huge_zpsqigcqyvf.jpg](http://i1292.photobucket.com/albums/b561/lynspottery/WoW/gw2%20launcher%20huge_zpsqigcqyvf.jpg "i1292.photobucket.com/albums/b561/lynspottery/WoW/gw2%20launcher%20huge_zpsqigcqyvf.jpg") yea...I unchecked my DPI scaling just so I could actually resize everything, but it should not have automatically been checked when I had not chosen it in the first place. This also seems to have affected my launcher window as well. I started my launcher and the launcher window covered almost my entire screen>>>> seems more than the UI was affected. I can't resize my launcher window at all and the current HUGE size is ridiculous since it never was that large before. Everything was normal last night when I logged off but today everything is out of wack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynspottery.6529 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 > @Rankomonaut.4708 said: > Did it affect YOLO mouse too? Apparently so, I had to uninstall my copy because it apparently not only changed the size, but eliminated the style I had chosen. I hate it when stuff like this gets messed up. But I found a Reddit posting that offers a solution to fix the Yolo Mouse issue: "_For 64bit client You have to enable the cursor @ the Launcher Window, hover over the patcher and hit CTRL SHIFT ALT 1; then press those keys again after the game is loaded._" (here is the link: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unchecking it changes the UI back to it's normal size for me, but the problem is it doesn't stay unchecked. Every time I load the game back up it defaults back to checked/on.

Every time I load the game back up it defaults back to checked/on. I noticed the same thing, glad to know how to fix it, but it should STAY fixed.
