Sorry, those two should point at hte same place. I had missed a AppData in my link before... should be this if you manually navigate there. c:\users\*yourusername*\Local\AlchemiumUnlimited\Draft Day Sports - Pro Football 2021

I don't believe I changed anything related to resolution in the last patch so I'm not sure why it wouldn't be persistent. I'll check with the platform guy and see if he has any ideas.

The game should remember and launch at previous size, unless it's been moved around between monitors or some sort of resolution change. If that happens closing the game and opening it back up should set your current resolution again. If that doesn't work, maybe deleting that settings file will get any corrupted settings removed.

No changes in my resolution while using. The version prior to the current version didn't have the issue so not sure what has happened. Could just be me.

Brooks, just some more information that may help.

I tried reducing the game window below 3840x2160 and the screen size/position appeared to save correctly. However, when I go back to my full screen of 3840x2160 (which worked fine on all prior versions), the issue comes back. At least in my case, the issues seems tied to the specific windows/game screen size being used. In addition I noticed when on my full screen, some of the issues of line wrapping came back on screens such as the team dashboard where the team schedule portion wrapped onto multiple lines. With smaller screen sizes, it didn't wrap. Just sharing this in case it helps figure out the issue.

Just a bump...with the latest patch, still doing the same thing. Brooks, any luck with a potential resolution? Resizing everything every time I start the game is an extra chore. Am I the only person having this issue? As mentioned in previous message, it seems to happen when resolution is 3840x2160 and above so maybe I am one of the few using a resolution like this. What really puzzles me, until the previous patch I never had an issue.

Have you tried deleting that directory listed above? That's where it stores the default state of the game... deleting it should get it to reset. I don't believe we changed any of the platform code in the 5.0.3 or 5.0.4 update so I'm unsure what happened there. I do have access to a 4k machine so I'll try and remember to test it out and see if I can reproduce and forward on to the platform dev.

Yes, previously did that as discussed earlier in this thread, have done many times, including complete reinstalls of the game as well. Happens with the Steam version too.

Yea, I'm getting some odd behaviors too... only workaround I can suggest is instead of maximizing, run it just a tad bit smaller than full screen, and it should stick. The platform guy is looking at it, but I don't have an ETA or root cause yet.

We have a fix for the next patch... It fixes my issues at 1440p, but you'll have to let me know how it works for you in 4k.
