scale:2, imho isnt a feature of powdertoy, its a windows command.

actually it is a args command, not just windows.

You can just put 3 or 4 in the scale:X variable.....it will automaticaly adjust

The problem you are probably receiving is that while the display may be physically very large the resolution is only "Full HD" which is 1920x1080 pixels. In order for Scale 3 or larger to work on the powder toy you would need a display with about 1896x1330 resolution, as you'll notice the second number of your monitor (vertical size) is too small for anything bigger than scale:2 so if you put in "scale:3" it will default to scale:1 to fit it on screen.

So in the end scale:2 is actually the perfect size for your monitor

Hehe.. actually...

if(!strncmp(argv[i], "scale:", 6)) {
sdl_scale = (argv[i][6]=='2') ? 2 : 1;

Somewhere around line 76XX

I don't believe powder toy supports scale 3 or 4, though you're right... it would be HUUUUUUUGE.

I think it would be a good idea to add a Scale:3 mode, as a few very large monitors (~30") are indeed over 1330 pixels tall. Scale:4, however won't be needed for quite a while.

Which is the lowest resolution needed to make scale 2 work?

Added Scale:3 & scale:4
