a tech problem
I am having a bit of a problem and I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions. Basically I use my TV for my computer monitor so I sit like 8 feet back and play nwn in a recliner with a wireless keyboard and mouse. Everything works pretty well except the text in the text box is a bit two small and very hard to read. If I zoom in the text above peoples head gets larger and I have no problem but when the group starts getting big the text tends to overlap and I have to try to pick it out of the dialog box. Is there any way to change the default font size in the dialog window? I have already tried messing with the resolution in the options menu and it doesn't seem to help at all. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

What sort of TV is it ? (size and resolution)
How is it connected ? HDMI ?

Re: a tech problem
If your graphics card can control two outputs, you could perhaps have a small, cheapo monitor nearby to read the texts off of. But that solution gets no points for elegance, of course.

ooo not a bad idea i could even keep the text window scrolled all the way up too....just don't know if i can stand the cord running through the middle of the room
