1280 looks fine, but there isn't really any good solution for significantly higher resolutions right now. Either datacube text is too small or conversation text goes off the screen. I believe the 1.03 patch will have a switch to revert to what the original Deus Ex does. I'm just holding off on this ...

640x480 was probably the worst you could choose, given that at that size the text is as large as it gets. Try something just below 1280x1024 or similar. 1280x960 works (with the TNM hud, which never had this problem but looks too small on larger resolutions), but it looks kind of lousy. I guess I'v...

It's the latter problem.

Lowering the resolution a lot would work in a sense but I would like to avoid doing that, especially since the original Deus Ex doesn't have any such issue (I described the situation more here). Just to test it though, I tried 640x480 and was getting the same thing.

I'm still getting the problem with the conversation text cutting off, even though the patch notes say it has been fixed. Is there something I need to do to enable the fix?

I'm getting the same problem with this. Are there any plans to fix it? I normally play Deus Ex at 2048x1536 with the 640x480 hud. It looks blocky, but there is no issue with readability. In TNM, playing without the hud fix makes the conversation text cut off as people have described, and the hud fix...
