Slash Command
Sets the display resolution or window size of your game client.
- Any resolution can be defined while in Windowed mode.
- When in Fullscreen mode, only standard display resolutions allowed by your display and computer OS (Windows, MacOS, etc.) can be set.
- This command alters the "3D Resolution Scaling" setting in Options --> Graphics and Audio tab --> Graphics.
Command Line Parameter
The command can be run automatically at log-in as a Command Line Parameter. For example, -screen 2560 1440.
Tip: Many graphics commands are not "applied" until the game is restarted. If switching between windowed and fullscreen modes, it's best to use the Options window to change these settings since the setting will usually take effect immediately upon clicking the "Apply" button. Also, to change the size of the game window while already in windowed mode, you may use the /screen command and it will take effect immediately. In addition, clicking the edge of the game window and dragging it across your screen will also resize the window. The new resolution numbers will be reported in the Graphics tab of the Options window. The /uiscale command can be used to immediately resize the user interface (all of the various windows within the game window) to better suit a new resolution. The /window_scale command can resize individual windows in real time. Lastly, the /fullscreen command also takes effect immediately, but it only works one way... from windowed mode to fullscreen mode. To go from fullscreen to windowed, use the Options window.
Example
/screen 5120 1440
