It worked for me too as of 2025, and as member @ospeff said, mods.cfg file should be on \Documents\Almost Human\Legend of Grimrock 2 and highResScaling.lua has to be inside \Documents\Almost Human\Legend of Grimrock 2\Mods
The \Mods folder will only appear if you follow the step 1 instructions and launch the game at least once more after the update is installed on Steam:
1 - First you have to be on the new beta branch. On steam, right click the game > Properties > Betas. Add the code "ggllooeegggg" to unlock the secret "nutcracker" beta
Make sure the mod.cfg is NOT in the mods folder, it should be in the parent folder (Documents\Almost Human\Legend of Grimrock 2) and the cfg file needs to point to the lua, so if you are using the one with transparencies you have to modify the name there.

["1920 x 1080"] = 1,
["2560 x 1440"] = 1.4,
["3840 x 2160"] = 2,
But at 3840 x 2160 resolution the map is too small even at the highest mouse zoom :(

Here is my 2560x1440 UI
To make it look like this I edited the ini file to include my Ui at line 32
Gui.presetScaleFactors = {
Changed lines 131-133["1600 x 1200"] = 1.0,
["1920 x 1200"] = 1.0,
["2715 x 1527"] = 1.3,
["2560 x 1440"] = 1.5,
}
self.attackPanel:setPosition(0, config.height - 200)
and lines 138-140else
self.attackPanel:setPosition(config.width - 392, config.height - 300 - 79)
charSheet:setPosition(config.width - 508, 0)
else
charSheet:setPosition(1123, -70)
The one to download is version = "1.0.0"
