change a few letters to red or pink or something till you find which file it is, then all you do is go through that entire file with photo shop or other editor and change all the charactors to a color you find works best.
I was thinking that route too Webster, but there's a crapload o' stuff in the game that uses Font 19 (the Rec Manual font). I thought; well I could copy & change Font 19 then rename it to a new font and reference the new font number in the 1024_768.ini Rec Manual lines, but I don't understand the "color" lines in the .ini file.

For Instance:
Even if I change the font color with Photoshop isn't the .ini still gonna tell it to show up as black? I'm not familiar with Hex colors so I don't know what "0xFE" is, but I assumed it was black. Or am I way off here?

BTW, Thanks for the response. All the other stuff I read about this bloody .ini is for movin' stuff around the screen.
