Due to Steam Workshop's 2MB image size limit, all of the screenshots above had to be compressed before being uploaded, greatly reducing their quality. To view them (and many more comparisons that I left out due to how bothersome It is uploading and arranging them above) in their full glory, here they are in an imgur gallery: https://imgur.com/a/yc6iu7W

Proper 4K UI Project

Something I've been working on after finding no satisfiable (to me) solution to playing EU4 on a 4K monitor. Includes elements (all UI related) from various different mods that I enjoyed playing with.

The purpose of this mod is to eliminate the blurred interface elements and poor legibility that the game's scaling option and all existing methods (scale_ui, windows "hacks") introduce when scaling the game for playing at high resolutions.



Features:

  • Upscaled - rather than being scaled-up - GFX assets in order to get rid of the blur EU4's built-in scaler and the Scale_UI mod introduce when scaling the game

  • ArtemisUI Included

  • Banners 5.0 Included (.zip archive with the files needed to switch back to using shields can be found in the mod's folder)

  • Replacement of the original font with Century Gothic, otherwise known as the wonderful Stellaris Font 🤩

  • Compatible with most map mods



NOTES:

- 3.5GB file size. Sorry. 😔

- A scaled minimap, files to change the banners for shields, and a different font style can all be found in separate .zip archives inside of the mod's folder (.../Steam/steamapps/common/workshop/ 236850/2863086388)

- Any mod that adds to, replaces, or somehow changes GFX/.gui files (Aside from, say, flags packs and most map mods) will likely be incompatible as they need to be scaled, too. However, apart from total conversion mods, this is thankfully a relatively simple process, so feel free to request any mods you want scaled and I'll try my best (99% of them should work with no issues, as long as they don't conflict with any other mod(s) you have installed!), though I recommend trying them out first as it might not need anything done to it to begin with

- Will need to be updated alongside any of the game's updates. If It's a large update then this will usually be performed during the weekends unless I find the time to do so before then, but feel free to notify me if any updates were introduced to the game that ended up breaking the mod as I sometimes take breaks from EU4 and may not have noticed

- Should be used with the game's scaling option set to 1.0



CREDITS:

  • goondo for their Scale_UI mod. Served as the chief inspiration for the creation of this mod, as well as being a great base for me to start analyzing and learning from!

  • ArtemisFowl for their Artemis UI + Expanded Missions compatability mod!

  • Sulphur for their Banners 5.0 mod!

  • The many creators of the awesome Expanded Mod Family of mods - Jay DoubleU, Stiopa866, LimonenZitrone, Melvasul, Zwei833 the High Pinger, LordVarangian, ComradDoge, Viking_Nephilim, Silver Knight of Anor Londo, Fly_Pepper, Vicryl, ChuKoNoob, Catoscar, UberEpicZach, Lumisentius, and anyone else I might've missed!

  • vzo.shop9 for their Europa Aesthetics mod

  • Many of the wonderful people in the EU4 Mod Coop discord who helped with any modding questions I had as I learned!

ENJOY!

@MouToN the link remains broken... thus this wonderful mod has the following still broken:
Alerts and ledger (fixed by proper UI ledger fix but at the cost of making the alert flags tiny).
Branching missions (no fix for these afaik except switching to default UI, picking a path, and then switching back).
Minimap (no idea how to fix it).

Can we get a 'Proper 4K UI Project' for HOI4 Please :)

Is there any way we can put pressure on Paradox to approve your Mod update MouToN? EU4 is simply unplayable on a 4k monitor without it. If you know who to pester, I'd be happy to start writing!

@MouToN Any update on Steam approving your mod? In case you didn't know there is a email verification you need to do.

Thank you!

I have published an unofficial update for the mod, which features upscaled version of all the new texture since 1.36, and 4k version of interface files.

As I write this message, it's currently hidden, until Steam checks its safety, but here's the link for later https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3557045153

Could you please release a Chinese localization mod? I don't see any 4K UI Chinese mods on the Workshop.
