[Guide] Changing text

[faizer]

Alright, I haven't seen very many guides about fonts or even topics about it. So heres one!

There 4 types of fonts in WoW.

ARIALN.TFF
FRIZQT__.TFF
MORPHEUS.TFF
SKURRI.TFF

ARIALN.TFF:
This font is used in textwriting. /1,/2,/3,/p,/s,/g, etc. uses this font.
Used for the number of items you have. Aka Stacking.

FRIZQT__.TFF:
This font is used in the chat bubbles and pretty much everywhere else.
Quest texts descriptions, item names, map text.

MORPHEUS.TFF:
Used for Quest Titles, AFAIK.

SKURRI.TFF
Unkown..

Picture showing fonts:


If you dont know where your font folder , go to the following:

How to make own fonts.

Find some goodlookin' font. Go into MWCS, open MPQ. Choose then locale-enGB.MPQ or locale-enUS.MPQ (Depending where you live).
I will change FRIZQT__.TFF into the Comic Sans MSstyle.
But first I need the treepath of FRIZQT__.TFF.
To do that I need to right click it, then select "Copy treepath"

Treepath: Fonts\FRIZQT__.TTF

Make a new MPQ, drag the Comic Sans MS font into MWCS, in the little box that pop ups, write Fonts\FRIZQT__.TTF. Save it.

BAM!!!

YOU ARE DONE WITH YOUR FONT CHANGE! HAVE A NICE DAY!
