    Seperate Background Graphics and Overlay UI

    In FINAL FANTASY XI you could set the background resolution to what you want and the Overlay UI to a different resolution.

    This would be mighty handy to those who require a lower background resolution but have a larger screen as if you set to 720p, The Overlay Resolution goes large.

    i.e Set background to 720p, set overlay to 1080p resolution.

    Whats everyone think?

    You currently have it.

    Think of Window Size = Overlay and General Drawing Quality as background.

    If you have 1080p set in the window the following occurs when setting the number in General Drawing :-

    10 (x2) 2160
    9 (x1.5) 1620
    8 ( x1) 1080p
    7 (x0.875) 945
    6 (x075) 810
    5 (x0.625) 675
    4 (x0.5) 540p
    3 (x0.375) 405
    2 (x0.25) 270
    1 (x0.125) 135

    I'm not really sure what Background Drawing Quality does.

    I think I badly explained that,

    What I mean is that the Background Resolution and UI resolution should be changable seperatly like FINAL FANTASY XI (Screenshot below to illustrate this)



    That way people who have a tough time with Framerates can reduce the background resolution and still have a UI that is not enlarged so it takes up 50% of the screen.

    As I explained they already are, they are just named differently, the draw quality is what the game is rendered at and the window size is the scaling option.

    So if you want a 1080p UI with a rendering setting of 720p you would either have to select draw quality of 5 or 6.

    This would be a nice addition.
