Custom GUI Style / GUI scaling

[4Magma]

How can i change font size, color and background color?
BCM appears in white on grey in small font size.

You have to compile your own build with a custom gui skin, or make a plugin that hooks config manager and change the gui skin from there. Something like this https://github.com/ManlyMarco/RuntimeUnityEditor/blob/master/RuntimeUnityEditor/UI/InterfaceMaker.cs#L43

Isn't there a easier way?
I use BCM with Valheim, but the small white text on gray is bad to read.
The Pic on the intro page shows BCM in white on black.

At the moment the game's own skin is used, there's no built in way to change this. The only way would be to change the code to use a custom skin like in runtime editor.

I'm interested in this too, every UI is very small on my QHD panel.
I got the source code, now I'm just wondering how I should override the GUISkin.

[ManlyMarco]

You would have to recalculate sizes of at least fonts for all the different gui styles based on resolution. Create a copy of GUI.skin, make your changes, and then set your copy as the skin to use on every ongui call.

I would also have to do it for all plugins additional UI calls? It does not seem manageable. Maybe going with dnSpy and changing some values ?
Also, any idea of the base police size on Unity ?

[ManlyMarco]

Yes, this would have to be done in every plugin separately. Some plugins would work fine with just a copy of the code, but others would require major rewrites if they use GUI instead of GUILayout and autoscaling windows. A custom skin like this could be exposed from some API library to make it easier to add it to plugins, like what RuntimeUnityEditor does with its own custom skin.

Yes please?

I found a good solution for this problem:

1- Find the exe file of your game, and RMB click it.
2- Click at > Properties
3- Click at Compatibility tab.
4- Click the button: Change high DPI settings
5- Check (enable) the first option below Program DPI
6- Check (enable) the last option below High DPI scaling override
7- At this drop-down list, select > System
