Good morning all,
So, I got a brand new system loaded and launched MWO.
In the screens that have "skills" "Mechs" and the hangar bays I have an issue with the text. I mean I can't even read the word "save". Now the rest of the game is just fine, I ran around in the academy getting used to piloting again and everything is just fine. The biggest issue is when I want to build out a mech, it's next to impossible.
Took a screen shot, linked it into another thread in the new player section
https://mwomercs.com...ers-start-here/

and if you pull it up it looks perfectly fine. So in game it's messed up but you take a screen shot and it looks perfectly fine?

System:
AMD R7 1700x
16 gig ram
GTX-1060 with 6 gig ram
Win 10 pro 64
And just downloaded and installed MWO.
Monitor is 1900x1200 native, game is also set to that.

I also did the repair function from MWO portal.

I see you monitor resolution, but have you played with the game resolution? This can have a profound effect on mechlab....

I did some, went from 1900x1200 to 1900x1080. Will try going further down, but before I replaced my old system....same monitor and same settings

What is the brand/model of your monitor? And is there an info button to show the resolution and whether it is running in 1080p or 720p?

Make sure DSR is disable for MWO. You can make a profile for MWO.

Turn off antialiasing, but in the Nvidia control panel and the game.

Also try switching from Full Screen to Full Window and Windowed mode.

.... There is another setting in your Nvidia control panel that may be the issue but I can not, for the life of me, remember that item.

edit - simply putting your screen shot here. I can read the pic, so it is likely some sort of setting between the Nvidia software and the monitor. Have you tried turning off GeForce Experience? And have you double checked your monitor settings and played with them?

How do you have your GPU and monitor connected, DVI, HDMI, Display Port, adapters to convert one to another?

I will try this when I get home.

DSR?

GPU goes to monitor via a display port cable. Monitor is confirmed to be running at 1900x1200 it's a 24" dell but the model number eludes me (I'm at work). I will try the rest of your suggestions this evening.
In game if I set the resolution way down I can read everything again, but that's a temp fix until I try your suggestions.

Nvidia - Dynamic Super Resolution, or DSR / AMD - Virtual Super Resolution or VSR

As for setting the resolution way down, is that in Full Screen mode or either of the windowed modes? On the screen shot you shared, does it look the same to you as it does in the game?

All has been done in full screen mode so far. The screen shot I shared it looks great, in game it looks like crud.

OK, did what you suggested. Figured it out. And DSR was already disabled. But took AAA off and played around with your other suggestions and it worked. Crystal clear. Thanks
