Please implement scaling for individual UI components

Grim Dawn Ideas and Feedback

As a long time MMO player including WoW and Final Fantasy XIV, I think it would be really cool if it was possible to individually scale each UI component. I like a larger minimap and hotbar area, but if I set the UI scale to max, the Active Quest tracker only shows a few quests and occupies most of the right hand side of the screen. There’s also a bug that I just posted about, http://www.grimdawn.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34526, that makes the note display bug out if you set the UI scale to max.

For reference, I am playing at 2560x1440 borderless full screen.

The note text and quest log are beautiful, but the lower bar and minimap are tiny.

As you can see, the note text is now truncated to two lines, the lower bar is huge and the quest log is halfway off the screen, but the minimap is actually visible now.

What I’m using now. Minimap is still a bit smaller than I’d like but the lower bar is about perfect and the note text is still readable.

You can sort of scale the mini-map a bit if you click on the lower right yellow triangle thingy on your hud…

Now on the quest tracker, I’ve suggested before to add a scrolling bar to it, so that if you have lots of bounties/quests active, you can just use the middle mouse wheel button to scroll them up and down.

Still waiting for them to make this a thing… :eek:

Is there a mod for this yet that I overlooked?

The more I enlarge the UI the more narrow my south vision becomes and I don’t like the north & south being my most limited vision perspectives, but if I minimize the UI then my shopping and skill tree UI are unnecessarily too small. Even more specific, I don’t mind if my health & energy bar are smaller & my quickslots/skillslots were bigger.

I saw a lot of different mods in the modding projects forum, but none for the UI and the Mod Compendium lists no UI mods.’

I’ve read it can be done, but I was hoping someone else already did it.:slight_smile:
