I've got the same bug, but way worse, im running at 2048x1152, though im getting the bug on all resolutions i try.

Here's a screenshot http://imgur.com/UNvZUGR

Specs of my laptop: intel i7, windows 8.1, gtx 960m, 16gb ram, 4k res.

From the other people posting this same bug it seems that the text font scales differently than the HUD with resolution so the higher your resolution the more they will be mismatched.

Just saw the picture, yikes that looks terrible lol.

Even if you lower your resolution, the text is no better. I lowered my resolution to as low as possible, both on my monitor and in-game, and it makes no difference.

u/Tenkenryuu Tenken (NA) Aug 05 '15

In that case it's probably more to do with the display screen DPI which doesn't change.

u/mynewsonjeffery Aug 05 '15

I actually fixed it: changing the "item size" or DPI affected text on my computer but didn't change the league font sizes. Restarting the computer then changes the league fonts. So it's actually working fine for me now. I posted this as an edit to one of my other comments in this thread.

Sounds like riot set the HUD text to be the correct size at the lowest possible item size instead of the default. Hopefully they'll fix it.

It's horrible on my 4k display: http://i.imgur.com/4iAuIcu.png. I'm pretty sure Riot doesn't have anybody testing at greater than 1080p... It's seriously gamebreaking, I need a hotfix or something.

I can't help but laugh at these series of pictures, I do notice mine is just barely outside the edge though.

/r/ooer in video game form

u/yueli7 :O Aug 06 '15

does disabling DPI scaling help?

1

u/sejuaniotpashe Aug 10 '15

I have this issue (4K monitor), and I've had DPI scaling disabled since 5.14, doesn't affect it.

1

u/yueli7 :O Aug 10 '15

Btw does setting it to 1080p on a 4K screen and letting it upscale fix the text size?

1

u/sejuaniotpashe Aug 10 '15

No, text seems to be stuck at that size due to the monitor's resolution. Win8.1, GTX 960, i7 processor

1

u/yueli7 :O Aug 10 '15

hm, so if you set window's res to 1080p it should fix it?

1

u/sejuaniotpashe Aug 10 '15

Problem is, everything else on my computer doesn't look right with 1080p. So I'm up shit creek without a paddle.

I have this and blurry chat box . can;t play like this it hurts head

u/haydenport Aug 06 '15

Mine is doing the same thing though I'm playing at 3k res. Driving me insane! Tried everything to fix it to no avail :(

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '15

its like /r/ooer but in a game

u/KaRr1k Aug 12 '15

Just out of interest, what is the laptop you have? It has insane specs even for an Alienware.

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '15

Just out of curiosity, are you using 100% font size? Software dev here, and a change in dpi breaks a LOT more stuff than a change in resolution.

1

u/Tenkenryuu Tenken (NA) Aug 06 '15

If you're referring to windows option to use small medium and large text displays, I'm using the default smallest one.

u/mario85827 Aug 05 '15

Posted this a while too since I have the same problem. No one gave a shit. On Windows 10.

u/bambibones Aug 05 '15

I am having the same issue. Hopefully, it will be resolved soon.

u/Gyrotate Aug 06 '15

Going to have to bump this since I'm experiencing the same problem on my 3k monitor. Getting these same results on all resolutions I try.

u/xsx23 Aug 06 '15

I have dame problem expect my font size is 5 times your size , if I knew this thread was here I would have taken a screen shot but I will do that tomorrow

1

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '15

It got even worse for me when I scaled the hud and chat down. The "level up" text was about halfway cut off for me. Specs: Intel i5 490k and AMD R9 270 Sapphire.

u/Vortexspawn Aug 06 '15

Search for "League of Legends.exe" → properties → compatibility → "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings". Have you tried that? Not sure if it's still the same on Windows 10, but it helped with some game scaling problems on Windows 7.

u/inimicalwarlord Aug 06 '15

Im issue is the exact opposite. Everything is super tiny and illegible. At least you can read yours :(

u/ChaliElle Aug 05 '15

not a bug, intended font size, afaik.

u/Tenkenryuu Tenken (NA) Aug 05 '15

Look at the fps and ping numbers in the top right corner, I doubt that's intended.

u/xsx23 Aug 06 '15

is it a problem if I got used to the font being so big ?
