Summary0019224: Things seem to be blurry on my OSX laptop
DescriptionOn my laptop, I feel like all the graphics have stopped being crisp and everything is kinda blurry. I don't think it used to be like this (though perhaps I'm too used to my large desktop screens?) For example, I really can't read the costs for the tech menu. The numbers just look blurry no matter how close I move my face to the screen. Here's a picture.

Yep -- what's your screen resolution set to? It's showing the screenshot at 2880x1800. That seems like a retina resolution to me. What seems to be happening, though, is everything is being drawn at half-scale for some reason.

For instance, when I scale your screenshot down to 1440x900, it looks as crisp as I'd expect. But it's not just text and so forth that's blurry on the original screenshot, it's worth noting -- this isn't a GUI thing. My guess is that for some reason your machine has decide to render the game at a lower resolution and then upscale it. Did you change some sort of OS setting in that regard? I'm not sure what options are available on the latest versions of OSX in that regard.

Yeah, this is a Retina display on a machine I just picked up. I have the resolution set to "Default for Display".

On a non-retina Mac I don't have this issue, it works fine.

Apparently the full and proper support for that won't be in unity until 2017.2 drops, supposedly sometime in September: https://unity3d.com/unity/roadmap

Before that, it will have to be helped along with some sort of OS settings, unfortunately. :/

That's fine, I'd rather use my desktop anyway. Lets just make sure this gets documented so noone else finds this an unpleasant surprise.

Now that we're on 2017.3, how is it looking on your machine? After the crashing issue gets fixed, of course...

Okay, now that 0.703 of AI War is out, is this still an issue?

It looks fine to me now.

Fantastic! And yep, on my mac I didn't see any issues either, but I wanted to check with you first.
