You can now select the font (name and size) by adding the following lines to the adom.cfg file:

Code:

Font_Name = Courier New
Font_Size = 15

Does this allow to make a game full-screen?

No, this is only meant as a preliminary fix until the NotEye integration is finished (NotEye allows you to play in full-screen).

I was thinking these should be mentioned in the adom.cfg file and the in-game manual.

Also, the two parameters appear as "unrecognized" (red color) when you use the '=' command as of 1.2.0pr3.

I'm sorry, but I don't have adom.cfg in archive of Prerelease 3. There is only Adom.exe, why?

In my Windows version it doesn't.

The adom.cfg can now be found at the following location:

Code:

c:\documents and settings\<user name>\local settings\application data\adom\adom_dat\adom.cfg

With a non-English Windows, try %localappdata%\ADOM\adom_dat\adom.cfg

This should perhaps be included in the ancardia.com FAQ as people keep asking about it.

Good point, I've updated the FAQ. :)

I think font selection might be bugged with non fixed-width fonts.

(Not sure whether it's supposed to work or not)

Sorry, non-fixed width fonts don't work...
