Should be fun, and I don't think there will be any compatibility issues. \o/

Actually, I am using the latest versions of everything in my OP, but have removed Armored Militia until that can be updated to Children of Storm.  Game version is 1.1 release.

But I have an annoying problem, I can't click on the Settle button!  The font size used to be a lot bigger, but now trying to click on Settle either scrolls the screen or the cursor continually jumps right, to the second button.  Is this a UI thing, or a function of having certain mods in a large DPI system when the interface is small fonts?

I would be grateful for any help, even if I can't keep the current game, as currently there is no way to trigger Settle unless I use a Keyboard shortcut (and even then, after that Equip might be a problem too).

Thanks.

Is anyone having (or knows what causes) the above UI problem as mentioned in Reply 3?

Well the only suggestion I can post here for your UI problem is the following info:

Do you have the problem with ALL mods disabled -- I assume this is "No"

Add the mods slowly back one by one and determine which one is causing the breakage or combo is causing the breakage.

--I know this might not be helpful, but it is something that can be done in relative short order since it is the settle button you are talking about here --

Okay, I'll give this a try.  It may just be that there are so many mods running - but theoretically, none of them should be conflicting on a UI or other level.

If anyone knows something about this, please chime in too. =)

Well, it has the same skipping bug even when mods are turned off, so unless it is something to do with the core mods which change the basic files, I'm not sure what the cause is.  I don't think any of the core mods have UI changes.

Does anyone know what the "DeclareDPIAware.manifest" does exactly?

Weird.  It seemed to have something to do with using a taskbar on the left hand side of the screen.  I changed the settings to Fullscreen=1 and it went away.  Strangely enough, after changing it back to Fullscreen=0 the bug didn't come back.  So anyone using a taskbar on the left or right side of the screen has something to try if it tries to open the Start Menu while the game is open.
