ENDLESS™ Space 2 is turn-based 4X space-strategy that launches players into the space colonization age of different civilizations within the ENDLESS™ Universe. Your Vision. Their Future.
As the title suggest, when I launch the game (and it always didn't do this). The game seems to launch on a screen resolution far to big even sometimes too big for my 2 monitors if I have my TV hooked up, and without it, its still too large for one monitor to the point i cant see the bottom half of the screen or the in game options, I tried to fix the problem myself with going into the games launch settings files and changing the resolution but that didn't seem to do anything, Of course its entirely possible I just didn't do it right.
So in short, game launches way too big to try and change it in game, stretches its self across my 2 monitors, and I cant fix it in game as the bottom half of the screen is essentially missing.
This is caused by Windows getting goofy with desktop high DPI scaling. If you run more than one monitor at different resolutions it will pop up from time to time, and isn't necessarily an issue with the game. There are a couple of ways to solve it, any one of the following should work:
1) Disable your second monitor before launching game (this normally gets windows to behave with DPI scaling)
2) After launching the offending app that jumps off screen, press Alt+Enter to try and force it back to fullscreen (rather than borderless windowed, which instead respects windows DPI)
3) Disable DPI Scaling for the offending app completely (for ES2, it's "C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Endless Space 2\EndlessSpace2.exe") by right clicking on the exe -> Properties -> Compatibility -> "disable display scaling on high DPI settings"
4) Turn off windows high DPI scaling altogether in the OS (not recommended if you run multiple displays with different resolutions, as it can give you headaches reading a 4k display with DPI scaling turned off. Use this option as a nuke-all last resort)
