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.
I have a 1440p 34" ultrawide monitor that I play Endless Space 2 on. It looks lovely and the UI is great.
However, sometimes I like to sit a few feet away on my couch and play using a Steam Controller (which works pretty well). However, the UI elements are just a tiny bit smaller than I'd like when I'm sitting further away.
I noticed that there is 'custom' UI scaling, but it only goes up to 1.00. It would be excellent if there was a way to increase this up to 1.25 or so. Is there any way this can be modified by the end user?
You can edit the UI scaling setting directly by opening the Registry file located in Documents/Endless Space 2/Users/YourSaveID with any text editor and changing the <CustomInterfaceSize>1.0</CustomInterfaceSize> to your desired value BUT even 1.1 overlays some screens on my 1920:1080 monitor, the game is playable but not everything is visible. It might work on your TV though but I'm not sure.
There is some overlap at 1.1 but only in the vertical direction (because I have an ultrawide monitor I'm sure). I'm going to give it a go for a bit and see if it helps me read text enough to warrant the overlap.
I've decided the overlap in the UI isn't worth the easier viewing.
That said, I'd love for a future update to better incorporate Steam Controller support (which is already really good with some community configurations) and a "10 foot" UI, which really just means very slightly bigger font as it is already really good!
Also, ultrawide support is pretty good right now but the intro loading screen gets scaled funny so it gets cut off. See screen shot.
