Hud and FOV

Hi,
I'm attempting to return to ED after a few years away. But I'm running into a few 'usability' issues. Graphics are set on 3840x2160, high. Nvidia RTX 3070. But the HUD looks like its in 800x600 resolution, the FOV slider does nothing.
The FOV feels so low, and the resolution of the massive blocky hud so bad, it feels like I'm playing on some 1980's emulator.
Any ideas?
Thanks
 
Not upscaling.
Eventually had to alter the FOV in the xml file in order to get any reasonable view. That improved things.

Guessing the ED team are just using old tech and don't include settings in-game for anything else...

I found that using this code:

<FOV>70.000000</FOV> <HumanoidFOV>80.000000</HumanoidFOV> ... <StereoFocalDistance>28.000000</StereoFocalDistance>

In the file
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Options\Graphics\Settings.xml

Gave the most awesome cockpit view.
