    The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

      Hello,

      Recently booted FAF up for the first time, brand new player, wanted to try rescaling the UI and saw that there was an option, I randomly tried 175% and had to exit to reinitialize, but now whenver I am in a lobby the screen is too zoomed in and I cannot hit the start game button to re-enter, is there a way to descale the UI from the client menu?

      tl;dr I cannot hit a button to enter the game because of the UI rescale and cannot descale the UI

          Where can I find this? Found prefs.dll in the jre bin folder but not sure how to edit it, looks like hex when I open it with notepad.

            If you have your faf client open, you will find a menu at the top left. You'll find an option to open your prefs file or its directory.
