That can't be true, here's a screenshot of the default 2.0 hud next to a HUD I've made where I just changed the font to verdana size 9 regular. None have scaling enabled so that's not the reason.

I would say these two are not the same font:

Hi,
It looks like it is default to bold even though it says regular. I will pass this on.

I did some additional testing and digging, I checked the "prefs" file in the config folder, and it says all the default huds are: font_size="8" font_name="Verdana" font_attr="1".

However I tried using these settings on my test HUD, and it is still not the same. I even copied the original default 2.0, changed the font and nothing else. Changed it back to Verdana, Size 8 bold. Then compared it to the original, they were not the same.

I know it's not a real problem, but I like the default HUD font and I want to know what it is so I can use it in my own HUD's :)

Has this been solved yet? I have a same problem. I know that you have bigger problems too but when you guys got time, please fix it.

So my problem is. If I change my default font to something else, and then change it back to default which is verdana? It looks different than "default". Very odd problem.

The default are 9 Verdana. Did you change in the individual stats or in the config? Please post a pic of both.

These both pictures looked exactly the same until I tried different fonts with the "Verneer" one. Then I changed it back to normal but it didnt go back to normal as seen in picture. Both are Verdana 9 with same settings. The original seems to be more accurate when compared.

I tried to play in the tables and there "Verneer" HUD didnt seem to be blurry or bad so It might be that this little bug is related to options only.

I'm having the same issue. All I want to do is increase the font size slightly so that it is the same as HM1 (the default is a bit smaller), but when I change to verdana 10 it completely changes the style and type of the font. Then even if I change back to verdana 9 it is nothing like the original or default setting when I first load the program.
