Title: Some help
Post by: KaMRaN on April 13, 2015, 04:39:10 AM

Hello everyone!
                       I just bought a new Samsung LED 22 inches with 1920x1080 display. I ran the game in 1920x1080 resolution and the game was looking very amazing. But the team chat words are very small.. Please have a look:

What I'm trying to say is there any way to make font size larger than normal size? If it's possible, then how? If this can't happen in 0.3.. Shall I be able to make fonts of team chat larger in 0.4?

I dont think its possible in 0.3 but its 100% possible in 0.4 you can change many attributes such as font size, name, number of chatbox lines and probably a few others.

Not possible in 0.3, however it's possible in 0.4 along with many other kind of cosmic changes. Also as the 0.3 masterlist will be shut down next month I encourage you and everyone else who reads this to move on to 0.4.

Edit: ohh Hanney made it first

First off you've got to locate "vcmp_config.txt" and the fastest way is to do a search. After you've found it look for "con_fontscale" in the file and change the default value (1.000000) to the desired value. Set it to 1.5 for example, join a server and see how it looks.

Take a look at this topic for more info http://forum.vicecitymultiplayer.com/index.php?topic=6009.0 (http://forum.vicecitymultiplayer.com/index.php?topic=6009.0)

Works fine for myself and a few others who tried it out too. My guess is you've either somehow messed up the file while editing it or then it just somehow fails to send out the information to the client. Go to http://forum.vc-mp.org/?board=6.0 (http://forum.vc-mp.org/?board=6.0) and explain it there, maybe they can find a solution. Meanwhile double-check the config file and see that all the values are entered correctly.

Edit: I completely forgot you can edit the config while ingame too. Type /setconfig con_fontscale <value> into the chatbox. Try this.

I didn't do anything with config file.. Just tried to change font but putting another value... But I will try this while in game tomorrow morning.
