PC Fortnite display issues after UEFN map publishing

Summary

Fortnite hasn’t been the same since I published my first map this morning. Since the approval email I tried to search for my creative map in Fortnite but upon launching the game I noticed the resolution was no longer fitting my 1920x1080 screen and was extremely pixelated with the side menu bar completely out of view when the game is in fullscreen mode, also there was a large black bar at the bottom of the screen as if the application had been moved up on my screen. when I minimze the fortnite window the game sticks to the top left of my screen covering a quarter of the full screen as if it’s been docked to the top left. After reinstalling and verifying files didn’t work I took a screenshot and made this post. Can anyone explain what’s happening, why it only happened after I published my first map and how I can fix the issue soI can enjoy fortnite again

Additional Notes

The issue is a first for me, I’d also like to note that I am unable to access the settings menu on the right hand side, I’m able to accept requests and send them from that menu but for some reason I can’t access the settings

hi @IzinjaZeGame ,
This island is working on Xbox One X (1080) by default, ON PC going into Fortnite settings this will work on

Look at my picture settings. The PC display must be set to 1920x1080

Hi ,my settings have been exactly like that for years now, this issue only started once I published my first creative map

The screenshot is how it’s displaying on my screen

hi @IzinjaZeGame

Try the fix where you make a shortcut and then force using DX11 and SM5 to reset the screen

Something may have been changed in the Epic Games launcher shortcut.
