I remember a good six months ago I found a file that allowed you to change the size of vehicle/friendly players/chat/kill message font size (I'm not talking about making my localizations bold) I've searched through BF2s and Google for hours and not found a trace of this file, anyone know where it's located?

As far as I remember you could set it to values 0-5.

From what I remember "§C1001" gives you orange text and "§C3001" or something like that gave you larger orange text. I don't remember there being any files that could edit font size besides the localization files, I could be wrong though.

Yeah I'm 100% sure there is. And I'm actually looking to reduce the font size, so the large text doesn't help :p

I hate when servers put that massive orange/green text on server messages, it's so feckin distracting...it's amazing how people can fail to read the standard text

Thanks, but not what I'm after.

Do you mean some kind of small application that has a GUI or something?

If so, I've never heard of one.

Nope, wanted to make text smaller, not Localization text though (Well)

You can reduce the size of the kill messages in the top left / text message s in the middle of the screen.

Honestly I can find it. Search hits only show how to change kill names and colours but not the font size. Sry.

Hakei mate I have never heard of what you are trying to do. But I'm sure it can be done through localization files

I remember a thread about how to move the "the game will start when X more players join" message out of the way, but I don't think that's what you're after either. And in any case, I can't remember what thread it was.

Just wondering why you want it??? Do you want to get rid of it? Because I think there's a console command to stop it appearing (I could be wrong though).

So I can reduce the size of text in game (IE make more of the screen visible) :l

Try looking in mods\bf2\fonts (or just \fonts, whatever) and editing files?

In the localization files, you know you can do the $3 thing to make the text bigger, cant you put a smaller number in? Or dont that work
