Question concerning Font size
 
I think its awesome how you guys have all these write-ups on how to do stuff, but I do not have the time to go through and read alot of stuff for one simple question. SO maybe someone can just tell me specifically what to do:

I want to change the font size of the Text the game puts above each players, and NPCs head. Its to large for my taste, and I havent seen anywhere to make it small. Any help with which xml or whatnot needs to be changed would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance


Added:

Also what about the distance at which you see someones name. Is this changeable? Any help appreciated.

Don't think you can change the distance.

As for the name size...

-copy eq2ui_proxyactor.xml from Default to a custom folder
-open it with notepad and search for this line:

Code:

<Text BackgroundColor="#FF00FF" Cursor="/Cursor.Text" ExtendedTooltip="Displays chat messages." Font="/Fonts.FontZapf18" GetsInput="false" LocalText="[DEVL]Ambassador Rotnaff of" MaxLines="1" Name="Name" ScrollExtent="317,28" ShadowStyle="/ShadowStyles.BlackOutlineNoShadow.Outline1" Size="317,28" TextAlignment="Center" TextColor="#0080FF">[DEVL]Ambassador Rotnaff of</Text>
Then just change FontZapf18 to something smaller, like FontArial14 or FontZapf15. :)

(Then save it and follow the instructions for loading in-game.)

thanks for the speedy response Death. I did all that ya said as far as copying the file etc. to a custom folder etc. One more question:


"(Then save it and follow the instructions for loading in-game.)"

Where might i find these instructions? =)

I realize now I may have posted this is the wrong forum, and these questions are noobified, but as usual any help would be greatly appreciated.
