    Hi everyone!

    Is there a way to change the font color for things like conversation choices? The bright red tends to hurt my eyes for some reason. I founds some mods that change the font but nothing to chage the color of the font.

    Thanks!

    First, I gotta ask, are you a Taurus?

    :shake: Just joking.

    I have no idea if such a mod even exists. You can change the in-game contrast/brightness of the graphics, or turn on/off 3d acceleration and/or change 16bit 32 bit. These change the colors/feel of the game somewhat and may help to make it more bearable for your eyes.

    :) Thanks for the reply Silverstar!

    I thought that since I've seen mods that change the font, there would also be ones that change the color but that might be a more involved thing, dealing with the core engine. Oh well...if anyone else has any suggestions, please do chime in!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    [​IMG] I think it would require changing something in the program itself, not a file it draws upon. I've never seen this come up before but I'll have a mosey see if I can catch my eye on anything.

    Good deal! Thanks much :) I figured it was an odd request since I haven't seen anyone else with the same question.

    it might pull the color from something like @coler/red or something, and be easy to change.
    thought i haven't heard of such a mod either.
    now that i think about it, the fact that there isn't one, makes me think it is difficult to do.

    I have sort of learned to live with it but thanks anyway Balle :) I would still be glad to change the color but it's not a huge deal I suppose.

    Take care all!
