I am making a PlayStation 1 styled game and I have the resolution set to 640x480 and the test-window-size to 1280x720. The stretch mode is viewport and the aspect is expand.
With this resolution configuration I am able to get a pixel/retro look.
But my problem is that the UI gets blurry.
How can I have the 3D game in a pixel/retro look while having the UI (Label, Images...) high res?

make a subviewport, render it to a small size, then scale it up
ui is separate from subviewport with game on it

I think using a Shader can also work

yeah but that takes more processing power
you render it to full size then you lower the resolution vs render it to small size and scale it up

In project settings I set the resolution up to 1200x720.
Then I created a SubViewport with the size 640x480.
Then I scale it up under the scaling_3d_scale property. Is that correct?
And where do I put the Camera3D?

fair enough

Now I have this structure.
I can enable stretch in the SubViewContainer to get it stretched over the screen, but the resolution remains still high res. I can disable it and set the size in SubViewPort. That would solve my main problem, but then the SubViewPort isn't the full size of the screen. When setting Size2D override, nothing happens
Now I understand why it doesn't work. It is a bug in Godot:

Here are two very bad practice workarounds:
