Readable Font!?

[Bordic]

Does anyone here know how to change the font in EU2?

There is a Fontmod here uploaded by the creator XiDragon, but it is based on a 1.08-patched text.csv, so it is now unapplicable I think.
But, are all of you here happy with the way you read the events during gameplay or do I only need to change my glasses?

Well, you could compare what XiDragon changed and reapply those changes.

I don't think you really need the modified text.csv. It just shortens a handful of strings to fit in the message boxes better because the new font is slightly larger. Apparently just some of the hints and the SDOTF notification have been changed.

Well, if I knew how to do, I would never ask!

You only need to put Fonts folder with its content (only bmp files) in AGCEEP/GFX folder (or directly in EUII/GFX folder but this operation will replace the EUII original fonts).
However, for myself, I only installed arial8, arial10, garamond12, garamond14 and garamond14bold. The other fonts are fine as they are (EDIT : and thus all fonts fit in the interface)
Btw, you will experiment some trouble with accents (pixels under letters) but this is not really a problem.

Yes, but which kind of font, that from XiDragon? And so also garamond12bold? I downloaded the mod and found out XiDragon uses a sort of Verdana font...

I found the XiDragon mod's original file :
1) unpack Font_Mod.rar
2) unpack Fonts.rar (the only needed file in Font_Mod.rar)
3) copy arial8.bmp, arial10.bmp, garamond12.bmp, garamond14.bmp and garamond14bold.bmp in AGCEEP/GFX/Fonts Folder (you have to create Fonts folder) or directly in EUII/GFX/Fonts (this will replace the original files).

I don't recommand to copy the other files (ie. garamond12bold.bmp, garamond18bold.bmp, garamond20bold.bmp and garamond24bold.bmp)

EDIT : The mod's font is Verdana or something but the files names have to be the same as in EUII (=> arialxx.bmp, garamondxx.bmp) in order for EUII to use them.
