Launcher
Issue Description (Required):
Launcher’s contents don’t scale correctly (see picture).
Steps to Reproduce (Required):
Launch from Steam.
More info and the fix:
The new Darktide launcher was rendering its WebView2 advert/news content at the wrong effective scale, causing tiles to show wrongly. I tried every Windows High DPI scaling override on Launcher.exe, the same overrides on the bundled msedgewebview2.exe, resetting the EBWebView profile/cache and launcher.config, adding .NET PerMonitorV2 DPI settings (with and without automatic DPI resizing) to Launcher.exe.config, and removing the bundled WebView2 runtime, which only produced a launcher with no web content. None fixed the layout.
The successful workaround was launching Steam with WEBVIEW2_ADDITIONAL_BROWSER_ARGUMENTS=--force-device-scale-factor=1, via a batch file, which fixes the launcher completely without changing Windows display scaling.
However, it would be good if it just worked…
