Title: Font size very small in System messages and map load screen [solved]
Post by: Bakin_Fundinson on July 15, 2008, 01:02:49 pm

Font size is very very small; almost illegible in these places:
logon screen / char selection, system messages "You got a quest!", Inventory and info on map loading screens "If you don't use the Bug Tracker, don't complain"
This is new since the update to 0.401, in version 0.40 there was no trouble at all
The chat window is not affected.
I experience this on a Mac G5 running MacOS X 10.5.3
I've tried using the font scaling in PS_setup, to no avail... Am I being criminally inept, or simply overlooking something obvious? OR... is it a bug, maybe???  :D

 :detective: (I hope this is the right place to post this - if a dev can confirm it as a bug, I'll put it on the Bug Tracker)

This is solved, it turns out that I'd overlooked a little typo in PS_setup: Screen resolution 440 x 900   ::|
this happened after I'd downloaded a complete & fresh version and so had to re-do my setup   :oops:
Thanks for the assist, Caarrie - I apologize for any inconvenience  >o) could someone send me a new eye?
