Hello Robin40,

yes, it can be done!
You will have to look at menu_1024_768.ini in \data\Menu. Open it with a text editor. Fairly at the top you can see the available fonts.
Search for "ItemID=0x67000389" this should be the Scroll-text-box and look which font is used and change to a larger one.

But keep in mind that a larger font will display less messages in the box due to higher characters and maybe word-wrap of longer messages.

thx buddy

one more question

have I to change i.e. Font=5 to Font=6?

and how to change all message dimensions font?...maybe searching for every Font= and increasing it?

I ask this because I like Conus resolution 1360x768. but I need larger fonts

Hello Robin40,

basically YES, change Font=5 to Font=6.

BUT be aware that you just can't do a automatic "search and replace", because the textboxes will not become longer and higher automatically.
This might lead to cut off text or non readable characters due to insufficient size.

I guess the before mentioned ID should be the right one. If not tell me the MOD you are playing and I will have a look for it.

The before mentioned ID is right for the scroll test box

The mod is Conus' SH3GWXWS 2.3
But I'd like to increase fonts for every message, even floating ones

So I think to go for a search for Font= in menu_1024_768.ini in \data\Menu of the mod and increase it say by 1
