Image quality gone down in packaged build

Why do images look fine in the editor / Play in Editor but look like junk in the Packaged game? Same on UE 4.27 and UE5. This is not just an image size issue and I’ve gotten it to be OK in older versions of UE.

Greetings BCETracks, thank you for posting.
I would consider checking the streaming pool size and your scalability.

Here is relevant documentation.
Here is a thread that goes over an issue similar to yours:

I hope this helps.

Thanks, I’ve had some positive results with Project Setting - Allow High DPI in game mode - but I don’t understand it and it seems pretty unintuitive. In my opinion the editor should match the packaged version or show clear warnings.
