I'm having an issue that the size of the launcher is about twice what it used to be.

Resolution in Windows is fine, in-game the resolution is also fine... It's just the launcher that's the odd one out.

Anyone had similar issues?

... and at 4K monitor new launcher "eat" 1/4 of screen size.

I hope this will be fixed soon™ Roll

The launcher now obeys the DPI scaling set in Windows - this was done to address the launcher appearing tiny on a 4K monitor. While this latest version solves that issue for some, it appears to introduce other issues.

As a workaround, try adding

-platform windows:dpiawareness=0

to the command line of the launcher. To do this, right-click on the EVE Launcher shortcut, Properties, and edit the command line.

Thank you for information, looks fixed a bit for now but still to big for me :)

Awesome, certainly helped! :)

I also changed my Windows UI scaling and I'm back to "normal" *thumbsup*
