Changing font in the Cartel? | Forums

Does someone know how to change text font in the Call of Juarez: The Cartel?

Hi again,
sorry but i have uninstalled the cartel.

But in dead island, it could be in:
dead island scripts\Data\Menu\FontDefs

Since Dead Island and the cartel are very similar, you could change the font "gothic medium" into another for testing?
Also trying to chage the values after the font name.

//Loads font and associates it to given engine id
//Font(sFontID, sTTFName, iSize, nStyle, sFormatFile, fHeightScale)
//nStyle: 0x0-normal, 0x1-bold, 0x2-underline, 0x4-strikeout; any combination of thoes flags apply
!Font(s, s, i, i, s, f)

//DeadIsland HUD

Font("LLRubberGrotesque 36", "LLRubberGrotesque", 36, 0, "", 1.0)
Font("FL Pismo Reczne 10 16", "FL Pismo Reczne 10", 16, 0, "", 1.0)

Font("Franklin Gothic Medium Cond 36", "Franklin Gothic Medium Cond", 36, 0, "", 1.0)

Or some xml files could change the text size settings...

Thanks again. There are those files here in "FontDefs":



Do i have to edit all of them or is "BasicFonts" enough? It looks same that in your post that code.

Right now i don't have time to even try it, but after i am done this, where i put that/those edited file(s)? Same place where i put those others edited files?: documents/call of juarez - the cartel/out ? do i have to do FontDefs folder for that edited file?

Thanks for help again.

I don't know which font it will modify ingame also if this edit will really affect the game fonts.
I did not tested in dead island, it is the first thing i would test to change fonts.

where i put that/those edited file(s)?

documents/call of juarez - the cartel/out ?

Before to modify the game, look this page under vac ban warning cause i don't know if the cartel use the steam vac ban system too:

Then for the directory:
(for Dead Island)

Installation:
       place the mod into your Documents\DeadIsland\out folder. Meaning that this text file will be
         in the "out" folder.
        -Full path: "C:\Users\YOURUSERNAMEHERE\Documents\DeadIsland\out" (Or My Documents on WinXP).
        -Ensure that "Data" is now a subfolder in the "out" folder. The contained files will be overriding the
         game's files.

Removal:
        -Unless you have other mods existing in the same folder you can simply delete the Data folder (and only
         the Data folder) from your Documents\out folder to restore your game. Well, and this readme.

And yes, you'll have to place your mod files into the complete directory path, i mean like this:
Disk:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\DeadIsland(coj_ the_cartel)\ou\Data\Menu\FontDefs

Look here to know how to modify dead island then do the same for the cartel:
