For some reason, it seems like a lot of games these days don't get tested at the highest resolutions possible, and suffere from horribly small fonts and user interface elements at those levels.  What's really strange though is that Mass Effect 2 had fantastic scaling.  I had no problems playing it on my 60" TV off of my PC.  But both DAO and now DA2 have incredibly small text and I have to sit real close to the thing to read all the descriptions and stats.  

FollowTheGourd made a terrific scaling mod for DAO (http://social.biowar...m/project/1688/), and I'm wondering if anyone's figured out where all the font sizes are stored for DA2?  I would love to be able to sit on my couch again.

I would love to see a mod for this aswell or better yet a fix from bioware, the text is a pain to read on smaller screens aswell(32'' 1920x1080)

A fix from Bioware would be the best! But in my experience, I've been using mods by people since Neverwinter Nights...

Has anyone heard anything about a mod for something like this?

I don't think anyone has really identified a need, aside from this thread.

DA2 presents tremendous (tremendous isn't even the word. stupendous?) readability improvements over DA:O; at 2560x1440, I've found all of the text to be remarkably easier to read than DA:O at the same resolution. This is largely due to stronger font choices (e.g. carrying Myriad over from Mass Effect), higher contrast on the tooltips, and less text to read in general in most places.

I guess no one else plays on their TVs then. It's pretty awful on that still.

I play on a 50" plasma and I have no problem reading the text. Never even really occurred to me, tbh. That's not to begrudge you the fix you want - more flexibility is always better.

I am not aware of a way to increase the UI scale at this time. The next time I have the urge to pick up DA 2, I'll take a look at gui.erf and see if there are any built-in scaling factors.

That'd be great!  Not sure What happened to Follow the Gourd, but he made a fantastic Font scaler for DA1:
