Discussion Lineage 2 on 4k.

[FossilGamer]

Hello everyone. Long time no see.
I've been trying to play L2 on my 4k monitor, however the UI is extremely small. 
I checked around the internet and couldn't find a guide on how to keep the resolution high and the UI size a bit bigger. I either get small UI + full resolution (correct resolution of monitor), or normal sized UI but resolution set to full HD (which doesn't really look good on a 4k screen). Adjusting scaling on display settings doesn't change the UI just the text on L2.
Does anyone know a way to increase the UI size only and keeping the screens resolution same (4k) ? I'll share a screenshot as an example, and it 's not even full screen mode.

Bro the game is so old it doesn't have a native option to scale the UI like in modern MMOs

Thank you for the reply. I know that this issue is due to L2 being so old. I was just wondering if there was an external way to fix the UI scaling. Like a patch or some settings.

There isn't, the game is just ancient, you might wanna play with a lower resolution (tho it might look horrible)

Hello iv had the same problem and kinda fixed it.Just to be clear dunno if it will work 100% but you can give it a try.go to your system file find l2.exe right click and properties,then go to Compatibility-->Compatibility mode and check Run this program in compatibility mode for and choose windows 8 or 7.Then go down and check Disable fullscreen optimizations.If this works and for any reason client goes to full screen all will go small again.Also you will need a fresh l2files and not the ones that are already showing you small.I hope this helps you.

You can think that this game is old, even if you have top gear.
