Kill log text size bug
« on: April 29, 2007, 10:04:27 am »
Heres my bug.  The text in my kill log will get randomly bigger and cover up the type of gun used, very annoying. 




Ideas?

It is clearly a bug if you're using the default settings, but in the meantime try taking a look at the settings in Txt/font.ini and see if changing anything in there helps.

Some lines are smaller than others because the nickname gets shrinked a bit.
Tweaking font.ini doesn't fix icons of weapons being shifted up from the text lines.
Is there a particular reason why MM chose to make the kill console so spaced out between the lines?
The old layout was almost perfect.

He had to change it to use the new font engine, so he decided to make it customizable as well.  I guess it didn't go so well when he had it automatically resize.

maybe it has something to do with the resolution? you seem to be registered. Try using the default 640x480 resolution. Just an idea...

This is the closest I could get so far. The text align is not the same now, I think in 131 it was aligned from right.
MM is the only one able to fix this. :)

At least you can read the small writing, on lower resolutions (like the way we registered users with older gfx cards) we get a bunch of dots that you can't read (I will take a screeny sometime soon)

Nope, it went back to before, shitty.
