Ironman compatible and eligible for achievements.        

Overview
Proper 2K UI Enhanced builds upon the original Proper 2K UI Project mod to better align with the original Europa Universalis IV interface design. I’ve cleaned up the project and organized the removed assets into submods for flexibility. Below, I’ve listed the types of new changes that Xyarvius and I contributed to the mod:
  • Adjusted text and UI elements positioning for a more visually appealing layout, preventing overlap.
  • Enlarged several windows to better fit larger fonts.
  • Fixed most progress bar glitches.
  • Fixed tutorials.
  • Enhanced important UI windows, such as the Holy Roman Empire (HRE) and Emperor of China (EoC) windows.
For a detailed list please check the Changelog[1drv.ms]
This is a standalone mod, so there's no need to download the original version.

Alternative downloads:
  • Paradox Mods[mods.paradoxplaza.com].
  • Github[github.com]. (If you would like to help the project)

Mod extensions:
Integrated mods (Many thanks to the creators of these amazing mods!):

Will I make a 4K version of this mod?
TL;DR: No, I don't see myself doing this.
Long explanation: All the improvements I've made to this mod were done by playing the game, noting down everything that wasn't optimal, and eventually fixing them in my free time. There's no automation for this; everything was done manually. So even if I were to scale up the current version to 4K, there would still be a lot of work involved, and I can't invest my free time in doing it.
Later edit: You might want to try using this mod along with the game’s GUI scaling feature and adjust the scaling to a value between 1.2 and 1.3. It’s not a perfect solution, but it could help improve the overall experience.

Does it work with 1920x1080 displays?
Not by default
Here are the steps to make it work (For NVIDIA):
  1. Open NVIDIA Control Panel.
  2. Expand "Manage 3D Settings" and click on "Manage 3D Settings".
  3. Under the Global Settings tab, scroll down to "DSR-Factors".
  4. Check the box for 1.78x (2560x1440) and if not already selected "DSR-Smoothness" for 33%.
  5. Now right-click your desktop and select "Display Settings".
  6. Under Display resolution, select 2560 x 1440 (2K).
Shout-out to 柏木由紀 for suggesting this idea in the comments!

This mod works best when used with a 2560x1440 (QHD) resolution for optimal performance and visual quality. To ensure the best experience, please activate all DLCs, as some bugs may arise without them.

Most mods are incompatible with Proper 2K UI Enhanced. Please deactivate any mods not listed in the P2KE Submods and Patches Collection, and recheck before reporting an issue. Thank you!

@Glidar I found the right file after all, it was in ledger_I_german.yml.
Thanks!
Yen_lo_wang 31 Jul @ 1:43pm 
@Glidar Oh, you changed the `maxWidth` in general? Nice, thanks.
In `EU4_l_german.yml`, I changed all instances of “Rekrutenreserve,” but that didn't change anything in the province overview. I also searched the other localization files without success.

Hi,
I just installed the mod. Played a few games but I keep crashing after 1 year of game time. I'm only using this mod in the playset. I don't know what keeps causing it to crash, ChatGPT/Grok doesn't return any good results. I can send you the error.log if you want.

@Yen_lo_wang You have two options: either add shorter words in the `EU4_l_german.yml` file, or modify the `maxWidth` value in the `.gui` files.
For the Manpower text that you mentioned I changed the width myself as i wanted to push another change for the mod.

First of all, thank you for the great mod.
I have a small problem with the German client.
In the province overview, the German word for manpower, “Rekrutenreserve,” is too long and covers the number.
Is there any way I can adjust this?
I tried it myself with a small mod, but unfortunately without success.

@21Eierschnumann I don’t have much free time for EU4 at the moment, but I’ll add it to my list.

@Glidar Hi, I wanted to ask you if there is any chance for a compatibiliy patch with Beyond Typus in the foreseeable future?
Glidar  [author] 11 Jul @ 6:26am 
@柏木由紀 Nice find!
I just tested it on a 1920x1080 monitor, and it looks fine. I've added the steps to reproduce it in the mod description.
Is it okay with you if I mention your name in the description? If not, I can remove it.
柏木由紀 10 Jul @ 7:31pm 
Bro, my monitor is 1080p, but I found a way. By using the DSR - Factors in the NVIDIA Control Panel and enabling virtual 2K, we can use this mod!:steammocking:

@Glidar thank you very much both for your response and for your amazing work!
