Bigger font for multiplayer chat

Postby CarLuver69 » Sun Feb 26, 2012 4:14 am

I'll make this as short as possible. Basically, here I have an ENGLISH MM2LANG.DLL file for you to download:

https://pitchshifter105.opendrive.com/fi ... mmlang.dll

Don't have an English MM2? Want your own custom font/custom font size? Here's a very simple how-to on how to change your font-size manually.

1. Download Resource Hacker

2. Open MM2LANG.DLL (MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE PROCEEDING)

3. In Resource Hacker, expand "String Table" and then the folder labeled "4" - go to line 61, which SHOULD read:

Code: Select all

61, "Gill Sans MT, 8, 16, 0, 400"
4. Replace it with:

Code: Select all

61, "Arial Bold, 8, 32, 0, 400"
That's only a simple fix. You can change the "Arial Bold" to any TRUE TYPE FONT you want. Leave the "8" alone and change "32" to change the font size to whatever you want. I think 32 is plenty big enough. No more squinting on smaller screens!

5. After you finish editing that one entry, click "Compile Script" at the top and do a File --> Save. You're done!

Enjoy.
