how to increase text size font in top right

[Snacko]

@Buzz, you got it to work??

 

Yes, most mods are just copying files. I have the instructions in the Readme so you know how to change the size, if you want..

To be honest. I went right to the bottom of the readme to what it said how to change the font size. I've done that before and went right to it. Why that didn't get me the permission and copying the whole folder didn't get the warning still confuses me. I'm just happy to get it to work.

 

Thanks.

Here's a mod I made to increase the font size of the radio and messages.

 

Well that didn't change the size of the radio message fonts for me. The radio menu got bigger though. Still better than stock, thanks

Are you aware of any mods to change how long to display the text box in the upper-right of the screen during tutorials?

 

Currently, the text fades out even if you don't press the space bar to continue the tutorial. I would like that content to remain on the screen with no timeout, and remain until I press the space bar.

That is controlled by the script for each msg in each mission. You have to edit each tutorial mission and change the time for each message.

Can that be done using a simple means?

@Snacko thanks a bunch for this one.

 

Oversized radio menu items being cut off at the bottom has been a huge peeve of mine.

 

I was able to shrink the VR font sizes easily with your mod.

 

Works perfectly.

Checking the scale GUI works great for me now since the last update (stable). Check the pic.

Has anyone tried this with multi monitors? The last time I checked the scale GUI I was unable to access menu option and had to reconfigure my graphics out of the game.

The scale GUI option works mostly well enough for now, but it isn't perfect. For example, in the mission editor, if you have a large number of loadouts for an aircraft, some of those will be inaccessible because they're off the screen. I have had the same issue with some of the options on the weather page.

 

 

It's not the end of the world and it can be worked around, but a fix to this would be a great quality of life change.

UthervL: It still tries to stretch the GUI across all monitors - potentially hiding menus and options. It also does the same to the 3d screen - overriding the lua view settings, so I really don't see the point of it, nor how it helps increase the font size of radio messages etc.

 

 

These refuse to change for me, no matter what I enter into The files specified at the start of the thread.

Does anyone know if this still works? I'm using a 4k TV with the open beta version and can't see the small text in the upper right corner

^ Did you try changing "messages font scale" in game options?

Is there a way to increase briefings font size without complete GUI scaling?

Thanks a million, this worked for me. It was such a struggle to read things.

Is there a way to do this in reverse for VR? The messages are way too big...

Thanks! Shame we have to manually hack files to be able to do this though
