Someone asked me the following question, and I thought it was worth posting here for everyone to be able to see it:

QuoteAny chance of getting bigger font in the written dialogue? It would be especially helpful to those with vision problems or in my case, aging eyesight.

Hmm, I actually did think about a "ChatHud" redesign a few years back.  Allert mentioned we really need to choose a better looking font, and personally I don't like the alpha or default Torque colours chosen.

Font size, on the other hand would require a bit of rework which would not be worth it for a demo, since many of the dialogues (both text and vocal) were designed to fit with the current text size.  Narrator dialogue and dialogue pieces were split into pieces, when they spanned the size of that window.  Because of this, it is not possible to expand the text on the fly with the current design.

So, what I can do is make the text more visible through bold, colour and alpha, but text size will remain as is. 8)

When in a conversation it is hard to select a subject of conversation with the large conversation bubble cursor. If the subject of conversation could be highlighted when the cursor is over it or the cursor be changed to a normal cursor or both, that would help with the ease of play.

I would like to do both.  The highlight I'm not 100% sure if I can do, but the pointer arrow I should be able to easily. :)
