Is it possible to change the font color for the numerals under the Speed (kts), direction (stb) and depth (m) dials on the main in-game display? That freaking orange color is hard to read. I did a quick search of this forum under "fonts color" and either I was not sure that the posters were talking about the same thing or it was a different topic being discussed...but I could not find the info. If some one could direct me to the correct font file (if it is in menu/fonts that is) or tell me if it is even possible, I would be very appreicative.

Thanks and Kind Regards,

Harry

As posted by SquareSteelBar.

this is done very easily by changing three values in 'menu_1024_768.ini'. At first backup this file then open it in notepad [or any text editor] and look for these three blocks below. Change the three values and the numbers beneath the gauges will appear in innocent white.
So long,
