ieoFontMagic  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.1a
by: Balkeep [More]

ieoFontMagic is just a little amazing addon that doesn't mess with your UI too much, though makes it a lot easier to read. Personally i came to conclusion that using default font for WoW is a bad thing to do with high UIScale (0.64). IMO the best font for that high UIScale is Prototype. But then blizzard scrolling combat text picks it up also and IMO it just looks huge and clunky as damage font. So i came to solution by making this little amazing add-on that just changes damage font and that of the scrolling combat text (like "Entering combat" and such). You can pretty much just check the screen shot =)).

You can use different font if you like by replacing the file font.ttf in the add-on folder.

Its very lightweight actually and uses like 1Kb of memory or even less =P

1.1 Updated TOC for 30300, some cosmetic changes again
1.0a Some cosmetic changes
1.0 Initial release

Ye i guess i got it, will look into it, if it can be done using just basic functions (and not making another SCT mod) then mb i will do it, but i guess if u really want that kind of information u need to go for more complicated addons like parrot or msbt (this one i personally like the most) =P

How can I get it to use a font like Friz Quadrata TT? Do I need to find a ttf file for that font? Other mods can access it, but I have no idea where the hell the ttf file is =/

ttf file is in ur wow\fonts\ directory (if u have any), thou i dont really understand why would u want to do that since blizz sct uses that font by default as far as i remember...

Hey there,

Your mod is pretty cool... well, the idea is pretty cool but the mod itself seems not to work anymore. only the CombatTextFont:SetFont(foobar) stuff seems to work, although the font-scaling is pretty ugly. Is it still possilbe to get this one running somehow?

Exactly, when i was writting it i was thinking the same =) I did some research, looked how it was made in clearfont and gooddmgfont and a couple of others and came up with this one =) As far as i know Tukz took it as a base for his own similar addon implemented in Tuk UI, wich i just like immensely =)
