Really sorry about the wait Alex. :( It's quite a time consuming venture and I have to ensure that I don't break anything else. I'll do my best to have the new version ready by Thursday.
Thanks for haning in there. :)

I am curious of one thing. Why your mod sets the CacheSizeMegs value so high (256)?
I have read somewhere that this value should be maximum of 64, higher than that, it just wastes the RAM instead of gaining any noticable performance.
Anyway, great modification. Keep up the good work!

Hmmm, that may have been some testing from back in the early days that I was doing and didn't shift back. Haven't noticed any performance drop from it though.

I know...so sorry. It's rather strange because I was just going to post today.
I should have the new version completed and uploaded by Friday. I just have to be 100% sure that it hasn't broken anything else yet. I have had to measure all the letters again to make sure I didn't make an incorrect measurement somewhere.
Not much longer.

I will have a test installer ready for you tomorrow. I just have to make sure it's working properly. So far, so good.

Working on it. The larger 'ß' is a side effect of the original font map for the main text being all upper case. I'll see what I can do to fix it.

Hmm, this presents some new problems.
If you're currently able to read the text without too much trouble, I would like to set it aside for now and focus on recreating the font map with a font that looks similar to that one but is easier to read. Carleton is such a thin font that it doesn't show up well ingame at all...even after making the letters bold. I'll create a brand new one from scratch with a more "eye" friendly font and get the cosmetic problems fixed.
I think copperplate gothic bold would work nicely.
