📋 About This Mod

This mod increases the FontSize used by books, notes, letters, pamphlets and githdiscs.

To install extract into your Baldurs Gate 3 directory.

It will need patch#3 since it is based on the xaml file it ships.

If you try it on another version and are suddenly able to read more of the evil book than you should and stuff happens:

Tis thine fault thou hathed be warneth!

I decided to not PAK this file so it is easier to change if a font mod you might be using uses a font which breaks or makes books unreadable.

This mod can now use custom fonts for the four types of books and notes it is disabled by default to enable open the xaml file and change it to your liking. Be warned: If a font cannot be found by the engine you get blank pages for that book type!

  • []BookPageStyleFont (changes the font for all kind of books)

    []PaperSheetBookPageFont (changes all kind of letters and notes)

    []TabletBookPageFont (amongst others this also changes Illithid writings)

    []GithDiscBookFont (changes the gith discs)

To enable delete lines 22 & 27 once you are sure the fonts exist and are correctly labelled (remove the comment markers)

To change the FontSize open the file and replace these strings:

ScaledLargeFontSize

ScaledLargeFontSizeLineHeight

ScaledBigFontSize

ScaledBigFontSizeLineHeight

Smaller (won't work if you use EasierText as it sets them to same size):

IntermediateFontSize

IntermediateFontSizeLineHeight

This mod should be compatible with everything but mods which change the same file (currently I know only of one: Faster Books) my mod has a similar change in it.
