Hello

Kinda keen to change the font on the games interface to Times New Roman

How do I go about that?

Thanks

It's a bit complicated. I can tell you what worked in the past, with previous versions of OOTPB, but I have not done it recently.

Basically, by trial and error, you find which of these fonts is the one you want to change. Rename it/them to something like "medium_default."

Then you find the Times New Roman font on your computer, make a copy of it, and paste it into this folder. Rename it to the font(s) that you want to replace.

Lastly, I believe you need to delete the skin.bin file in the skin folder that you are using. That forces the game to rebuild it and to use your (disguised) Times New Roman font in the game interface.

Obviously, you may need to do this repeatedly until you find the right look. Don't forget the option to resize the font in Game Preferences. You may need to make it larger or smaller, depending on how Times New Roman compares to the font(s) you are replacing.
