Reducing Screen Resolution Breaks GUI

[PaulG]

My setup is as follows. Radeon vega64 and 4K (native 3840x2160) 60hz freesync monitor

I can only run at medium graphic settings at 4K so I want to try 1440p (2560x1440) at high settings.

 

When I change the resolution and DCS relaunches the gui is screwed up and the mouse pointer is not where it is shown. To click a button you must use trial and error positioning the visible mouse cursor up and right if your target

 

I’ve tried this with the scale gui option in and off but this does not solve. AMD drivers have an option to scale screen resolutions but this seems to have no effect.

 

Any ideas?

need to be using full screen.

Did you change the aspect ratio. EDIT IT appears to be the same so this is probally not the answer..

Also, when this happens, hit Cntrl, Alt and Delete to bring up task Manager. Close task manager and your screen problems should be fixed.

Change Your Display Resolution to 1440P (Right Click Desktop, Display Settings, Display Resolution)

 

Then Launch DCS in 1440P

Yes I’m using full screen, and yes the aspect ratio is the same.

 

I'll try the CTRL-ALT-DEL workaround see if this works

 

Changing the windows desktop resolution sounds like a massive workaround. Never see a bug like this in any other games.

 

Are there some settings or configure files I need to change or reset somewhere?

 

Thanks

Well the CTRL ALT DEL open task manger then close it workaround works

 

But still a bug IMHO
