Hi all

I can not play the game in 4k resolution 3840x2160 , fonts are too small.

I am playing on 49" tv , and I am close it , still fonts are hard to read.

is there any fix for it ?

There are two possibilities I know of to scale the UI...

1. Enable the debug console in AppOptions.txt (EnableDebugMenu 1).
In game, press ~ to activate the console. Use the command ui scale x , where x is a multiplier. So, fractional values <1 to shrink, and >1 to enlarge. You'll probably get best results if you use integers when enlarging.

2. Also in AppOptions.txt, there is a variable UIUpscale . I've not tried this yet, but it would seem to be a better option if you don't want to reset the scaling every session.
 
you may delete it

I presume that you found your answer. I play on a 49" TV with 4K res and had the same problem.

To solve, just pop along to the options and boost the UI scaling to 200% (my preference). It should be available to select if the game registers the 4K resolution. I use Nvidia DSR to upscale as play through Steam Link.
