Hello, I’ve found the “eventwindow.gui” txt file but I don’t understand the instructions for what to do with it next (I can’t find the lines “# Original Long” nor “# Bookstyle”). Could someone please help me? :)

For anyone wanting to use this with
even biggerinterface making them compatible is simple enough, other wise you get event window cut off and the option not sat on the scroll graphic.

Both mods come in Zips, so either know how to edit AND save Zip contents/files, or, unpack/unzip both mods zip files.

Both folders have a sub folder called interface, open eventwindow.gui.txt from both.
Copy the complete first 2 entries from the bigger EVENTS txt file, they are commented
# Original Long and # Bookstyle event window, The 2 entries end on roughly line 768.

The same 2 entries in the same file, but from bigger INTERFACE, end on roughly line 790. Delete them both, and paste in the entries from the EVENTS file.

Save! Now we pack them into zips, or check the zips have save depending on how you decided to work.

Simples.

Great work!

In the 3.1.1 patchnotes i read this:

###################
# User modding

- Added scrolling support for InstantTextBoxes.

Maybe you can put this into your mod. :-)

M8, you should change the name of the mod to "EVEN BIGGER TEXT BOXES" to be more concise with the mod.

@Atrushan: Thank you for reporting this bug. I fixed it.

So usually it worked for most parts. But unfortunatelly it would crash on desktop during some event (I think it was a birth) instead of showing the text window, so I had to remove it again and live with the occasional missing lines. Maybe that's something Dratoran can fix at some point. By the way, I used no other mods.

Not compatible with bigger interface, use the same "eventwindow.gui". I don't even know what's the changes are...

Holy shit thank you, I honestly don't know how I did make it through my 200 hrs in this game without this.

Found the issue. The game needs steam cloud syncronisation turned on or it won't show the changes. Thanks for the mod. Works great!

*sigh* So I unsubscribed to "bigger text boxes" to replace it with this one (for the translatoion issue), but the game still shows bigger text boxes in the mods, not this one. I tried restarting Steam as well as the game, but couldn't fix it.
