Title: Changing subtitle size?
Post by: CommanderDJ on January 25, 2011, 10:19:52 am

Is there a way to change size of the text created by the show-subtitle-text SEXP? Because the default is ridiculously small. I remember seeing much bigger text in the WiH intro. How was that done?

Thanks.

That was done by a subtitle image.

I see. So the subtitle text size is fixed, then? Shouldn't be too difficult to make an image; thanks for the reply, General!

You should also be able to use any of the fonts in fonts.tbl for text subtitles.  The default font01, font02, and font03 are all different sizes of the same characters.

Hello to all,

how would I go about changing the font for the subtitles?

I hope that's not too stupid a question...

You would need to use FontTool, or ask someone who does.

This probably warrants its own tutorial.
