Make background in dialogues like in books (brownish)?

Post by glorsh66 »

Is there a way to make a background to dialogues windows?
IT's hard to read a lot of text on a back background.. I would be much more pleasant to read from back ground color (or in the best case background texture)

Somebody familiar with the UI code would be able to answer this more specifically than me, but I believe there is an option to change the opacity of the GUI background. This will at least help with readability.

Yeah - Opacity could be easily changed even in the game menu (Or at least in the config file of OpenMW), but I am asking about changing background color of menus from black to something more pleasant to eye (and with the font color surely)

Just put it inside the game folder (data files). And replaced *.ini file.

OpenMW does not use INI file. It uses openmw.cfg instead.

Yep. I suppose it's the reason why this mod doesn't work in OpenMW?
