I understand that this is an old game, so there might be voices saying "why do you need this game to be played in 4K".
Point is, it runs in 4K and looks really good.

The only downside is, that the user interface is tiny. Neither the main menu nor character menus, inventory etc. are in a readable scaling.

I already tried Tchos Mod, that adjusted UI for full HD resolution, but this isn't helping in 4K.

So I was wondering, if there are any workarounds or other mods.

Thanks for your replies

To my best and honest opinion.....not that I know off, despite that the user in the reddit link did somehow succeed....but otherwise your normal answer would be no. (follow second link for more info)

Thanks for your post, but unfortunatelly the focus of your linked threads rather lies on getting the game running in 4K, than on adjusting the UI. Surprisingly the game runs without any tuning in 4k with the "stock version" gog offers. It's just the size of the HUD ...

Maybe I get a resized HUD as outstanding feature in the Enhanced Edition of NWN2, that Beamdog will announce in 2019 xD

The first one did seem too indicate that this user got it somehow to work, in the second link is a link to the wsgf homepage clearly stating that UI is NOT adjusted.

Sadly I think you have to play in 1080p. Even then you may need some mods to make UI larger.

It may also look that it doesn't work even in that resolution. Maun menu looked stretched for me. But the actual gameplay was fine.

Thanks for your post. It's actually bearable to play in 1440p UI sizewise... I was just surprised, how good the in-game graphics looked in 4K for such an old bone of a game ^^. Another problem in 4K was, that as player, we are so far away from the action considering pixels, that voices became very quiet during dialogue outside cutscenes. I'll have fun with the game, anyway :)
