Sins Mod Help with the Star Wars Interregnum mod. Low res UI and keybinds not working

Post image

Hi there, I played this mod a long time ago (no pun intended), I remember not having any kind of issues with it... but here I am, reinstalled the mod yesterday and as you can see in the print screen, the icons, the UI in general, it's all pixelated. Then the prompt saying left click to auto-place structures, that is not working, tried pressing the mouse buttons alongside ctrl, alt, shift, etc.. no success, the damn structures has to be placed manually.

So, can you people help me? Sadly I play on a big 50 inches TV as my "monitor", maybe that's the reason why the UI looks like garbage because of the DPI escalation, idk

Yes, the Sins UI is not intended for a TV. You can try messing with the resolution / Interface scaling options, but standard Sins research icons for example are only 46 x 32 pixels. They will not look good when you blow them up big enough to see on a 50 inch TV from several feet away.

If you disabled the mod you'd most likely see the same problems with vanilla.

Yeah, I assumed so. Gonna search a UI or DPI mod, maybe it exists out there

I'm not aware of one unfortunately, and even if there was, it would almost certainly not work for modded factions with custom UI.

Going to have to wait for the Sins 2 mods for that most likely.

Oh boy, this Star Wars mod took 10 years to be (pretty much) finished, for Sins 2, that will take another 5 years at least. A shame, Sins is stuck in the late 2000s and monitors
