HUD not displayed correctly

i'm a bit of a alpha tester/forum noob, so i'm not sure whether the 'known issue' described as "GUI can appear off-set or mis-aligned, particularly at high resolutions" is the same as what i'm experiencing:

the stuff when i look left and right in the cockpit is fine, but up front everything except for the radar seems to be having problems. the, uhm, avatar of my ship seems to be in the correct place, but the three shield rings around it are displaced to the left and cut in two pieces (the left one being a lot smaller), and there's weird symbols (numbers?) below it in the same colour. pretty much the same goes for the area left to the radar where the current target is shown. the sys/eng/wep area all the way to the right also is jumbled (it e.g. says "YS" instead of "SYS" etc).

anyone else got that problem? do you know whether it's going to be fixed soon? (i couldn't find a specific thread for this; but then again, as stated above, i'm quite new at this).

p.s.: i've got a nvidia geforce gtx 670 and am running the game at 1920x1200.
p.p.s.: this might sound even more noobish; but do i have to actively do anything to get updated versions? on the top left it says i've got alpha 2.01 (etc) but there's talk of alpha 2.1 here in the forum; did i miss something or is it not out yet officially and will update automatically when i log in?

Hi,

This is a known issue. It was working in 1.1 and broke in 2.0. The appears to still be in progress.

You just need to switch to a 16:9 resolution (1920x1080 for example) and you will be fine until the fix lands.

As for 2.01 vs 2.1, the forum folks seem to be using the two interchangeably. The correct current version reported by the app is 2.01.

2.01 vs 2.1 must be typo somewhere. Devs talk of 2.1, but in game it reads 2.01. After logging in the Launcher says "Upgrade" instead of "Play" when it is time to upgrade.

That HUD messed up with higher than 1920x1080 resolution is a well known issue, IIRC it should be fixed in the next update.

The Alpha Discussion Forum has lots of stuff like this, if you do not have access already, you should PM Mark Boss or e-mail support<*at*>zaonce.net to gain it.

thanks a lot!!! i switched to 1920x1080 and now it's (a bit stretched vertically but) fine. also thanks for the 2.01 vs 2.1 info (also to the second user replying afterwards).

p.s.: i actually can get into the alpha discussion forum (if i interpret it correctly) but couldn't find any relevant threads in there either - again, my mistake, i'm new at this (or i just suck at using the "search" function properly or i didn't look long enough :) )
