UI is "Zoomed In," Blurry, with Graphical Glitch

[fallenlorelei]

Hey guys. I just recently bought MV off Steam about... an hour ago. Immediately when I started it up, I noticed that it looked very strange. It looks zoomed in as if the program isn't recognizing my computer's native resolution, and there are also some graphical glitches. Hovering over the large buttons reveals bright green text. I could deal with that, but everything else is so fuzzy and looks terrible.



I don't know if this is the "lag" people are mentioning, but I looked around on these forums and also the Steam community and haven't been able to locate a solution. I updated my graphics card - it's strong enough to handle RPG Maker (NVidia GTX 980). Ace doesn't have this problem - it's still crisp and native. Is there a Windows 10 setting somewhere that I'm overlooking?

Comparison of both versions. Both featuring the same default new map size of 17x13



I haven't even started making any games with MV yet, so I can't comment on actual gameplay. I'd like to fix this first.

My System:

Windows 10

Intel Core i5

16 GB RAM

NVidia GTX 980 (OpenGL compatible, 4.4)

Display Size 1920x1080

I wanted to see if anyone had any immediate fixes they knew about, before I add this to the stickied bug report. Thanks so much if you have an idea

Edit: Kirkaz added a screenshot of their MV and it does indeed look different from mine.



I'm convinced its a setting on my computer somewhere (or in a settings file somewhere), but I'm not sure whee.

The new UI is larger than the old one, and the fonts are not as sharp. I don't know if that is what you are mentioning however. Some people like the larger ui and many don't notice the fonts aren't crisp. But you will get used to it most likely.

Not sure about the lag or bright green text though.

Hmm that's too bad - I do like the larger UI, but not a fan of the fuzziness. I suppose if this is normal, I'll have to get used to that, and just deal with the glitchy tooltips. Thanks!

On my end, the text look "resized". As if it was rendered for a different aspect ratio and then resized to fit my screen. Looks a bit blurry.

Yeah the UI is large.

Ive got used to it now

Tooltips are fine on my end.

I think the UI looks a little kiddy and unprofessional, but that's just my personal opinion I still enjoy the maker though

That's exactly right! Rendered incorrectly. If this were a game, I'd have to go to the Options menu and set a different resolution. But there's no such thing in MV...

While our tooltip differences are clear (mine are glitchy), your menu bar looks much more crisp than mine. Am I imagining it? Haha.

Thinking there must be a way to fix this somewhere in the PC settings, maybe....

Edit: compared in photoshop, they are different!  Mine's at the bottom, looking much more blurry. Of course, just the toolbar being blurry isn't a problem, but the problem persists throughout the entire UI (the database, character generator, eventing, etc.)

This is a global GPU setting that is not a default you need to adjust specifically back to defaults for RPGMV

Thanks! Do you know how to do this? I went into my Nvidia Control Panel and played with the settings for MV specifically, but so far nothing has changed.
