Blurry text in game

[RabidSquirrel]

set it at 1440x900 and blurry as hell for some reason. Quite a chore to read. Any ideas why its like this? :S

Is 1440x900 the native resolution of your monitor?

Can you post an unscaled image?

[RabidSquirrel]

[RabidSquirrel]

Yes that's my native res. Ok sorry about the scaled one

What OS and what are the specs on your video card. We are starting from the basics as we have not seen anything like this in testing.

I saw that a lot of people fixed their problems just by re-downloading and re-installing the demo, but no results for me. . . the text is readable just it's very hard. The only places where I can't make a thing out are: the MAP LEGEND, ORDER OF BATTLE, COURIER MENU, and the TOOL TIPS when you float over the buttons in-game. It looks like some weird made up alien language!

Ahhhhh well. . .

Do you have the latest Catalyst drivers installed?

Something you could try is to disable AntiAliasing and Anisotropy. Open the SOWGB.ini file (Scourge of War - Gettysburg\Work\) and change AntiA=2 / Anso=4 to AntiA=0 / Anso=0.

Tried it after disabling AA and Anisotropy, and no results, still blurry.

What version of DirectX does your system have? The game needs DX9.0c or higher. The needed files ship with the game, but there is an additional issue here.

Also, are you running in full screen mode?

This is a bit of a long shot, but have you tried some other screen resolutions? This is not an issue we have seen before.
