Out of sheer frustration at barely being able to read the fonts in the game I set out to increase the size of the font game wide. This is the product of about thirty hours of picking through the scripts line by line and rearranging the font fields found their.
Please keep in mind that it is very early days for this mod. Unforeseen consequences are possible and it is entirely possible that at a certain progression of the game the mod impedes progress (I have not actually been able to play the game to test it yet). Several fields have still not been tracked down to be blown up yet and the mod also is not yet supporting resolutions above 1366x768 (I need to fix some scaling issues and as a placeholder/shortcut I renamed the high resolution UI and slapped it into ground combat on all versions).
As always you install mods at your own risk.
Compatability:
This mod is unlikely to be compatable with any mod that modifies scripts. Fortunately as long as the other mod does not modify the styles script your game should still run, just without some of the font changes. Changes by other mods to the styles script will likely cause the game to crash or hang while creating/loading a game.
Known Issues:
1. The X,Y coordinates in the event feed are cropped off.
-I do not foresee any fix for this as its a fairly minor annoyance. The x,y coordinates here don't really serve any purpose as simply clicking the event snaps the map to that location. Its a small eyesore and at best I might find a way to delete the coordinates from the feed entirely at a future date.
2. Soldiers previous experience/regiment is bunched up and overlapping.
-This will be fixed at a future date. The vanilla font size was small enough to prevent this from happening but increasing it to the desired level to be readable on larger monitors leads to this. The fix will be abbreviating the strings as much as possible.
3. Xenopedia entry names vanish outside xenopedia window.
-I'm working on a few different possible solutions to this problem. (either extending the window or reducing the size of the entries)
