Re: too small font
Just edit *_size settings in openttd.cfg (in [misc] section).
Re: too small font
I got the same problem, I tried changing the fontsizes, but it didn't help, tried changing the resolution: just made the window smaller.

Re: too small font
Did you try to change font size? Because your problem should be solved if you change font size. For gryvix I can't tell as there is no screenshot.

But nothing change.
Re: too small font
What is written in the console if you start openttd with "openttd -d misc4freetype1" ?
Mostly top [misc] lines (...found as personal directory) and bottom [freetype] lines.

Re: too small font
Windows may or may not be resized with a resize button - the if and how depends upon the window. There's no way you - currently - can change the default size. Menu icons can also not be changed yet in size.Selzer wrote:Same story with changing font sizes.

And: always use plain text files, not MS word or some other proprietary formats for text files. I guess it's not only me who'll refrain from opening it.

Re: too small font
Who puts a screenshot in a word file? Just upload the pic, and save everyone the bother. Apart from that, what planetmaked said. Word documents are a lot less portable than plain text files.glx wrote:Even worse, it's a screenshotplanetmaker wrote:And: always use plain text files, not MS word or some other proprietary formats for text files.

Re: too small font
This should be a sticy topic. I play with 1920x1200 resolution, and text was very small. I used fontrenew GRF to fix that problem before found this topic.
Thx .

Adding a proper article to the manual would be even better.taisteluorava wrote:This should be a sticy topic.
Re: too small font
But I have no .cfg doc, can I change the letter font?
Re: too small font
I'm quite sure you have one. Otherwise just start the game and immediately exit it after starting, and a fresh openttd.cfg will be created for you.
