Aion on a "sofa PC"

Sash · 28 Jul 2009 at 15:13

So I recently installed Aion and am playing chinese server with my friend.

My current set up for PC is to have it running through my TV and me sitting on my bed about 5 feet away from TV. (I dont have enough space for a PC desk in my room so I use my TV)

I dont usually have problems with games as it is possible to adjust the interface to have bigger writing and fonts so I can read the text or the game doesnt need text to know what I am doing.

Is there anyway to increase the font so it is actually readable from further away? I have tried playing it at 1280 by 720 (720p) and selecting the font to be "big" instead of "medium" but the writing is still too small.
Warhammer Online I could increase font size and the same with Neverwinter Nights and other games when writing was essential.

Moving closer to the TV is not possible before someone suggests it, due to space reasons again lol

tl;dr version: Is there an HDTV interface or modification I can apply to config files for bigger font?

I am assuming I should wait until the game is actually out. Lol

I have only tried the chinese build so far with the english language pack so far tried opening the font .pak file but not found anything capable of this yet.

it's currently Beta right?

Check the official forums, and if nothing, then make it a suggestion. It's the sort of thing that's easily missed but easily fixed so they'll likely include it in an update.

Will probably do that thanks.

I tend to ask here first before registering for a new forum to ask a question because a lot of forums dont like new members lol

A bit like a local old man pub xD
