Weird Font Problem... - Magoo! - 07-05-2009

So... I went to open up Freelancer today and witnessed quite an... Anomoly. The font for the server list and character list had changed - quite to the contrary of my preferences as well.

As opposed to:

Its probably something really simple, but I parused (spelling) the options and didn't see anything regarding font size. Maybe I missed it. My other thought was that it was some weird thing regarding the mod that just now started taking affect for some reason...

Anywho, sorry if this is a really simple problem, its just bothering me. I'd very much like to get back to the thin font as opposed to the blubbery bold font. Thanks in advance!

-Edit- OH! I didn't type in any of the font commands, just so people know. I thought of that.:$

I'm trying to help someone right now who is having a similar issue where the font in the menus are way out of proportion. So far not having much luck.....

Hmm, so I'm not the only one?

In game I had to adjust the font size of messages using /set chatfont small default, but the leaving/new player messages are still about... Oh, size 16 bold font. More screenshots, in case it can help anyone.

And I'm Lazarus, just so nobody freaks out about posting private conversations without consent. Thats eh... Me.

Have you changed the game resolution at all?

Not that I know of, it was running fine yesterday or the day before - and I haven't gone fiddling with the properties or anything of the sort since then. Besides which, everything is normal - like ship proportions and quality (like 800x600 vs. 1024x768 quality). Its only the font, and I haven't messed with the program files and/or font files of the game either.


-Edit- Is there just a way to turn off new/departing player messages? I looked in the commands and didn't see a way, but I figured it could be worth a try asking.
