Description

Changes zoom levels in TD so that the game can be displayed in 1:1 scale (and its multiples) on 1080p, 1440p and 4K. Also allows you to zoom out much further (depending on the map).

Tested with the September 2020 update.

Note: half of the zoom levels will look jagged, which is a side effect of the mod being compatible with multiples of 1080p, as well as 1440p.

Note2: the first few campaign missions won't allow you to zoom out very far, because the maps are tiny.

Fantastic mod, solves the scaling jaggies on 1440 display. Best way to play in-game, and also massively helpful for recording gameplay for videos. Cheers!

The XML file is from the previous (august) version of the game, that's why you see more differences. Nothing significant has changed, though, so I haven't updated the mod.

Yeah, I was super bothered by the sloppy scaling and I still can't believe they keep botching their own art by such a simple oversight.

Btw. are the zoom factors the only thing you changed? I compared your xml to the one in the newest game version and some other lines are also different.

Clever :) I'm glad I'm not the only one bothered by the scaling artifacts :) It's pretty unprofessional for Petroglyph to make none of the default zoom values pixel perfect, it's important for 2D games.

@Arthandas - by trial and error, sadly. I extracted an image of a construction yard from the game assets and kept overlaying it over screenshots with various zoom factors and arrived at this particular number. The greatest zoom level, 1.975, will display everything at a 1:1 scale on 1080p.

How did you figure out that 1.975 zoom factor? Which are for 1080p? I want to delete the others and leave only the 1080p ones.
