Fix CS:Source fonts chat for Linux

[cmer 59]

Hey!

I've had problem with fonts in CS: Source on my new installed Ubuntu 20.04 all letters are smaller and thinner in chat.

For CSS just copie the font from Windows and configured it to be used. Now the chat font in Linux looks the same as Windows and is no longer difficult to read.
Copied vgasys.fon from C:\Windows\Fonts to $home/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Source/hl2/resource .

Edited chatscheme.res in the same directory.

Under "ChatFont",  locate the setting for the yres (vertical resolution) range I'm using (768 to 1023 or subsection "3" in my case). Changed the "name" from "Verdana" to "System".

 

"ChatFont"
		{
			"1"
			{
				"name"		"Verdana"
				"tall"		"12"
				"weight"	"700"
				"yres"		"480 599"
				"dropshadow"	"1"
			}
			"2"
			{
				"name"		"Verdana"
				"tall"		"14"
				"weight"	"700"
				"yres"		"600 767"
				"dropshadow"	"1"
			}
			"3"
			{
				"name"		"System"
				"tall"		"15"
				"weight"	"700"
				"yres"		"768 1023"
				"dropshadow"	"1"
			}
			"4"
			{
				"name"		"Verdana"
				"tall"		"17"
				"weight"	"700"
				"yres"		"1024 1199"
				"dropshadow"	"1"
			}
			"5"
			{
				"name"		"Verdana"
				"tall"		"22"
				"weight"	"700"
				"yres"		"1200 10000"
				"dropshadow"	"1"
			}
		}

 

Under "CustomFontFiles", Add a new font, "3", set to "resource/vgasys.fon".

 

	CustomFontFiles
	{
		"1"		"resource/HALFLIFE2.ttf"
		"2"		"resource/HL2EP2.ttf"
		"3"		"resource/vgasys.fon"			
	}
