    SOLVED Font looks bad in fullscreen

    OK, so I'm testing out my dialogue system, and here's how the font I chose looks in windowed mode, in the game's native resolution (640x360): Which is fine! But here's how the font looks in fullscreen mode (1920x1080): It's very blurry and pixelated in comparison. I tried messing around with...

    SOLVED Using fullscreen function on second non 16:9 monitor with primary monitor being 16:9 causes wrong scaling

    Hello. I have a typical function that sets the game to be fullscreen when pressed and windowed when pressed again.
