[UMod] Hi-Res UI Scaling
Posted: Sat Jan 16, 2021 2:28 am
A very basic mod to scale the game UI past 1x, for high resolution monitors
Scales all in-game UI including text and damage numbers
My monitor is 1080p so I couldn't test this very well. Feel free to make changes if you want
Preview:
How to use:
1 - First you have to be on the new beta branch. On steam, right click the game > Properties > Betas. Add the code "ggllooeegggg" to unlock the secret "nutcracker" beta
2 - Go to "\Documents\Almost Human\legend of grimrock 2". Once the beta is downloaded, you'll see a file named "mods.cfg" and a "Mods" folder
3 - In the Mods folder, create a text file and paste the code from the end of this post, name it "hires.lua" (or any name you want). Confirm when windows ask if you want to change the extension
4 - Add the mod to mods.cfg so it looks like this:
5 - Edit the .lua file to add your resolution to the list
