- Find your verdana.ttf which is usually in C:\Windows\Fonts and copy it to the UI\Fonts directory.
- Create a file in your EQ2 Beta directory named eq2.ini and put the following 2 lines in it:
Code:
cl_ui_skinname Verdana
cl_ui_subdir UI/
- Create a folder in UI named Verdana
- Copy eq2ui_fonts.xml and eq2ui_skininfo.xml to that folder from the default folder.
- Edit eq2ui_fonts.xml to make lines 3 and 4 say:
Code:
<TextStyle Algorithm="Simple" FontName="Verdana" Language="english" Name="Font_Chat" PointSize="15" PrivateFontPath="UI/Fonts/verdana.ttf" UseCachedFont="true"/>
<TextStyle Algorithm="Simple" FontName="Verdana" Language="english" Name="Font_ChatInput" PointSize="15" PrivateFontPath="UI/Fonts/verdana.ttf" UseCachedFont="true"/>
- Edit eq2ui_skininfo.xml. Change, at minimum, the description and text fields to whatever you want them to say.
Fire up eq2 and you should have Verdana in your chat window and actually be able to read your text now!
