FONT's too small

[X-the Unknown]

I can't read anything. I even set lower resolutions and the font is just too small. All that time spent downloading and for nothing. :(

You can change the UI and chat text size, there's also a way to change fonts.

Where?

[Zeltcon]

you can edit it here
C:\steam\steamapps\Common\TERA\Client\S1Game\Localization\USA
then edit the file name GFxUI.usa (back it up first)
Copy mine if you want it. I only change the font size idk if you can change the font itself.

If you are talking bout in game fonts and what not, just go to your settings in game, you can adjust the size and location of everything on screen.

Yup. Alot of windows have both scaling in the UI menu, and the inventory has a drag zone to make it larger and this also expands the text size of the tooltips if I remember right.

I just deleted it thanks. I went to every option in graphics a UI and there was no setting for fonts size. And that other thing with changing the file information I'm just not into that and if one has to jump through hoops like that just to play a silly game I don't want to play it anyways. I've played Guild Wars and Guild Wars II and RIFT and never had this kind of issue with any of those games. They had a feature to change it and it was PLAIN to find and see. This one is ridiculous.
Have fun though Ima play something else with bigger FONTS :)

What strange huge resolution are you playing at? Also increasing Scale all UI percentage does include the font size in the UI's as in both ui+font grow with it.

No idea if this affects but maybe its your own Windows *Display settings(right-click Desktop > Personalize > Display) which could be affecting the game, try changing to one that isn't the smallest.

In-game UI settings, you can manually increase anything of the Combat UI(includes quest tracker, minimap, main menu). If its Chat, it self has custom options for it.

Still the same almost 5 years later.

Yeah, this wouldn't be the first potentially enjoyable game I've ditched after a very short time because of horrible design stuff. If I can't even get into the game without some BS, I really don't want to make a lot of progress and find some other broken crap.

Personally I'm gonna try the suggestions above (thanks, everyone! <3 :) ) but yeah, I shouldn't be having to apply community-sourced fixes for REALLY basic stuff, it tells me the devs aren't very interested in fixing anything.

I'm very hesitant to get into microtransactions, Patreon boosts, etc in f2p games for just this reason, especially when reading nightmare stories about people who've sunk serious money into a game and then server crash/act of God and they lose everything and the devs just shrug coz they've got their money already.
