Big Fonts

I use 1600x1200 resolution and all the interface windows have tiny fonts as a result. I don't have the best eyesight either.

Since the last patch a mod I had that helped had to be deleted.

Can someone make me a nice new fonts file with arial and something crazy like size 16 or 18. It may mess up some of the windows, but it would really help me out

Everything's Arial Bold, 16 pt or larger.

To adjust, just open it with Notepad, scroll down to just past the first </Namespace> tag, and change the PointSize values.

Thank you very much. I can't wait to get home from work and try it.

tag for later - thanks death. Does this change all the fonts everywhere to that style? or just the chat boxes.

Is there a way to make it do just the chat windows? I am completely incompetent when it comes to this xml stuff.

The "Name" tag in each line specifies what the type is. The 6 lines at the top control the chat font and input bars. The ones down below the Racial namespace control the rest of the UI.

So...if I want everything to stay the same - except for the chat window fonts I can take the default fonts.xml from my UI folder - and change the first six lines ... first word to bold...and then just resize the font in my chat options box?

Thanks again death
