Blurry notes and descriptions- SOLVED

Post by aedes »

Got this game yesterday and enjoying it so far.
I only have one problem- I run the game on 1365x765 and all settings on high.
But still I am not able to read small print in item descriptions, scrolls and notes.
Is there any way to improve this?

Hmm I run on 1920 x 1200 and can read them just fine. Not sure what the answer is here, maybe run on a lower res? :?

Thanks darklord...
I tried this, but did not change anything, the small script became even more burred.
That is the main problem- the small script seems to be in italics, and its just impossible for me to read as blurred as it is.

Blurred eh, well monitors do blur if not run on their native resolution.

Also try resetting your graphics card options,

This thread discusses it more,

Thanks Darklord for the link!
I did what was recommended and it worked! :D

Here is the solution again for people with similar problems:

I have a labtop with onboard card- Intel Chipset Family 4.
I went onto the intel website to see how I could do the adjustments recommended in this thread.
For all labtop owners with the same issue: press CTRL-ALT-F12.
This gives you access to the controller.
Then adjust native screen resolution.
Then go to 3D: disable the AI and set the texture quality to "Quality".
It works wonders!!!!
Yay, now I can enjoy the game even more! :D :D :D
