Font size

[Tequilapowered]

This is simple 'problem', I think there were previous threads with answer buried long down the pages.

I just started playtesting WITE and noticed that lines of words sometimes overlapped across others. I am able to prevent that by changing my computer Desktop deafult from Medium font to Small (which is Win7 default). I am old man (played the first WIR back in early 80s on Atari followed by the newer WIR of the 90s) so I set my computer to Medium. Is there any way to change the game to remove the font size problem in the game without needing me to set my Desktop to Small?

Game patched to the latest greatest.

Hi all,

This should help:

v1.01 Beta 1 – December 10, 2010

New Feature – Added ability to use custom fonts. Disabled automatic font reduction in high dpi settings. Instructions for setting up the use of custom fonts can be found at: tm.asp?m=2645378

In other words just click on the link below:

I just change this "2,Arial,10,0", to 2,Arial 8,0."

Have to do that with every patch though. But not a big deal.

That's an awesome feature. I like the alternative fonts, they add a bit to the feel of the game.

eureka! it worked!! Changing one single line is something my foggy brain can still do. The text is now beautifully displayed although I reset my computer fonts to Medium.

Thank you so much [&o]

You do have to look at and see the game constantly. I have played with a lot of fonts and am using the over-rides below.
Somebody joked about Comic Sans but i actually sort of like it in some places.
