[2.0.15][mac-arm] Graphics and text very fuzzy on macOS 14 Macbook Pro

Post by elliottcable »

On first launch on a M1 Macbook Pro, the text is very fuzzy.

Fiddling with the interface scaling setting doesn't seem to help. Nor do any other settings I could find.

Are there any workarounds? I'd like to be able to play on this machine occasionally. No such issues on my desktop (hiDPI) Intel Mac; nor on my Intel Windows gaming-PC.

Hello, in Graphics settings, you have "Render in native resolution" disabled. If you enable it and restart the game, GUI should be clear and as of Factorio 2.0.21, the HiDPI rendering should be fast enough on your Macbook Pro.
