Dialogue Box and Widescreen issues
« on: July 02, 2013, 12:30:40 pm »


               To get to the point quickly, I'm replaying NWN for the first time in..well..let's just say the expansion wasn't out yet last time I touched the game. I'm on a widescreen monitor and resolution (1920x1080) and even with the high res text enabled it's a bit uncomfortable to crane my head and squnt at the upper left to read line after line of still pretty small text.

Now I've searched a bit on my own and found nothing helpful, but I thought I'd run it by y'all anyway. There's no solution for this, is there?

               Catsoup ~ Do a search on the vault for fonts. There are a few options however last I checked, they all had some flaws so I don't feel comfortable giving you one link. You'll have to check them out for yourself and decide which is best. There is room for improvement tho, so that's the good news.

               That is, unfortunately, one of the things that keeps me from fully enjoying NWN1.  I haven't seen any satisfactory font replacements for 1920x1080 because it's hardcoded.  From what I've seen, all you can do is maximise the used space in the font bitmaps to make the letters as large as possible, but the ones I've seen were all blurry, which replaced one kind of illegibility for another.  My solution was to reduce my screen resolution.
