Bigger And Better Chatbox

Description
First of all, this tiny modification was intended to replace vanilla serif typewriter font by something easier to read. But it's hard to call few modified strings of code a mod. So, I tweaked a bit more of them.

As a result, this mod changes default whatever-its-name-is font to Verdana and stretches chatbox twice as much - in case the server leads a killlog or there are a lot of talkative players or something else. I personally find it too short.

"If this isn't working copy chatfont.vpk from Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\447820\1374498399 to Steam\steamapps\common\dayofinfamy\doi\custom. If you don't have a custom folder create one." - thanks to Lil Sauce for the tip.

Also, check out MAIN MENU REDUX mod made by SHOUBI which is aiming to make menu navigation easier. It also includes current chat modification, so you might just skip it and follow the link.

P.S.: Initial plan was to use Insurgency chat font or something more practical, but I couldn't figure out the way to hook up custom fonts to the game. Windows installed fonts are working fine and, furthermore, Verdana is used to render cyrillic symbols by default, so... there it is.

If this isn't working copy chatfont.vpk from Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\447820\1374498399 to Steam\steamapps\common\doi\custom. If you don't have a custom folder create one.

Add this in the description.

Finally. I've been looking for this since Day of Infamy came out. The counterpart insurgengy mod was a must have, this one even more because they unexplicably made the chat area so small
