Ok, let's see if we can get to the bottom of this

#

What do you mean by 'if I create client settings and game options before hand'?

#

So the issue is with MM options?

#

Not Mhq?

#

@frosty palm could you take @ember jetty through what steps you took to resolve this? Looking at the log you posted it looks like you're both having the same issue

ember jetty
#

Hm. That didn't work for me.

#

Pointed to it?

#

Hm. Seems not.

#

Ok, let's explore other options: what happens if you just straight up delete mhq's install and re-extract?

ember jetty
#

I'll try

#

Okay, a fresh install lets me open campaign options.

You're about to say it broke again, aren't you?

ember jetty
#

No idea why though, the only things I had were portraits and icons.

#

T_T

ember jetty
#

No no, it seems to be fine still.

#

Oh, ok, good

#

I am relieved because there are few things I've learned while working on this project:

  • Windows always has to be special
  • There will always be bugs

And most relevant:

  • GUI work is the worst

#

Yeah, I am very aware

#

I moved to Mac a few years ago and wasn't prepared for just how little I miss windows

#

But yeah, while working on CO IIC I would frequently get everything working and looking great. 10/10 no feedback. Only for one of our windows testers to come back and tell me everything is scaled wrong and nothing works

Only cause we liked making work for you

#

I blame Microsoft

#

@frosty palm @ember jetty sorry for the ping, I just have a few questions:

  • Did either of you change the scaling options in MekHQ Options?
  • Did either of you try transferring your config files from an older version of the game? (mmlconfig, mmconfig, or mhqconfig)?
  • If I say the standard set up is 1-2 monitors, around 1920x1080 resolution, is there anything special about your set up that differs from this 'standard' arrangement?
#
  • When starting your campaign did you select 'Confirm' or 'Customize' when picking a preset?
#
  • Are you using a preset from an earlier version? If so, what version
ember jetty
#

No
No
One of my monitors is a little smaller then that but not by much
I selected confirm.
No
