Hello Please, hope someone can help. For the last few years when using the \EA App/ the char font has been kinda weird, like spiky, blurry with these floating distorted "objects". To give an exam...
Thank you for giving it another shot! It's definitely strange that this issue is persisting.
Could you try clearing the browser cache by closing the app fully and then deleting the files in%LOCALAPPDATA%\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\CEF\BrowserCache(you can paste this path directly into your Explorer address bar)? If that doesn’t resolve it, could you also check if the font issue appears in the built-in error reporter? Or does that display as expected?
This is really strange. I’ve honestly never seen or experienced anything like this myself. Has this been happening for you since you first installed the client?
Yes, whenever we had to switch over from Origin to the EA App. Idk when that was , but its been like that since day one of the changeover.
The wonky font charcacters do affect the left side, and they do sometimes affect the friends and friends conversation box and the settings in the middle screen.
Anything with a dark background.
computer is "just" up to doing the job.
fx8350, 16gb ram, ssd drive, rtx 3060 12gb
So idk what else could be causing this weird ghost characters.
If you use a magnify glass on this pix, the white font is acutally colouful.
Hey @Eeekey, thanks for including the other screenshot and the info earlier!
Question: Can you check if you have set GPU Hardware Acceleration to 'manual' for the EA app under Windows Settings > System > Display > Graphics settings? Please also include a screenshot of what you see. Or have you set any non-default settings for the EA app (EADesktop.exe) in the Nvidia Control Panel if you have an Nvidia GPU?
Ok Im all out of ideas. Nothing has solved this. Here what I tried:
The Windows GPU hardware acceleration was set to on, I changed it to off and restarted the computer but EA App still displaying artifacts.
Windows Display scale & layout is set to 125%. I need that in order to comfortably read the screen, but I will switch it to 100% to see what happens.
No solution: The E A App still displaying artifacts.
As for NV CP, there were no Program Setting for EA desktop.exe, so I created a link and reset all options to off. Also, I set the Adjust Image settings with preview to: Let the 3d application decide. Sadly, made no difference EA App still wonky.
Using the actual EA App scaling by zooming in/out or actual size options, makes no difference as the artifacts are still present.
Sadly nothing has worked. Could you offer another idea as to fix.
.
Can I say it appears that the EA app spacing, on the left side of the App, are too small for the allowed char fonts, as not just the chars have artifacts but also some of the EA program icons are cut off from within the box.
Here some pix: NVCP settings before I set everyting to off
The EA App scale set to actual size, windows 10 scale set to 100%, nvcp set to Let the app decide. Notice the chars are cut off and EA App icon is not fitting correctly into the box. May the margins are off. idk
Im all out of ideas. I need the windows desktop scale set to 125% for comfortable reading, but this doesent affect anything else gamewise or desktop wise.
[FYI I made a ticket in the actual EA app, but on the browser Error Report version I cannot select any of the drop down menus to chooose options, such as windows version, etc]
