one has to play around with the settings depending on their setup. I have a couple platforms playing SP. Win10 is pretty straightforward. With my Mac, running Parallels to run a Win11 VM in a window, the default OS setting is 1664 x 1854 and I set WinSP to Windowed mode. One has to resize the window and disable the intro video sequence in order to avoid distortion. Once the size of the program window within the VM is figured out, it works flawlessly. Not bad for such an old, but modified program with roots going back to the MS DOS days.

1920x1080 for myself.

I do know of some friends who have tried it at higher resolution found the UI scaling quite difficult to use (or easily read, especially for new players) at the high-end resolutions (above 1920x1080, that is) but I've no direct experience of this myself.

If there are any custom solutions to allow for UI scaling, I'd be grateful to know...as it would help those friends of mine (or myself!) with what feels like constantly worsening eyesight.

Cheers,
