Had a request for the chat font to be bigger.

I was thinking maybe a hex edit to larger font size?  What do you think?

Well, yes.  If you're talking about hexing the exe.  That controls chat size using the gamefont_*size* functions.

Although can't you change the font overall some other way too, through core or something?  Never really tried other than through lua, but lua doesn't control chat size.

The font size for what? You can change shell font sizes through the LUA. You can change game font sizes through the core. You can replace existing smaller font with copies of larger fonts but with line breaks (like weapon description spawn boxes) not all text will be visible, same for server lobby. I don't use hex editor to change fonts just the shell and core builders.

OK, thanks, I will give the core builder a shot.  It is for team and all chat. (green and yellow)
