Forge on Retina display Solution

Postby cyberstyle » 13 Aug 2014, 22:41

Here is my first contribution to this forum :D

I've noticed the low resolution (blurry content) of Forge running on my retina display MBP and tried to find a way to stop burning my eyes out. I could not find any info on how to fix this on the forum and elsewhere but I just found a way. The reason it is not up to standard is because the app is locked in low res mode but there is a way to fool OS X to think it is retina capable.

- Right-Click on your Forge.app in the application folder > Get info (you will notice "Open in Low resolution" checked and greyed out)

SOLUTION :

- Right-Click on your Forge.app in the application folder > Show Package content
- Edit /Content/Info.plist
- Add this line of code just BEFORE </dict> near the bottom of the file :
Code: Select all
<key>NSHighResolutionCapable</key>
<string>True</string>
- Save
- Important ! : Move Forge.app outside your application folder then back again for this hack to work

Voila! Enjoy 8)
