Greetings everyone!

For those who play Divine Divinity on Linux and would like to apply the patch for larger fonts,
I recreated the original .bat script in bash, so you can run it in a terminal.

Here's the script itself on Github with instructions:

https://github.com/mikeshp/divine-divinity-larger-fonts-patch-linux

Here's how to use it:

  • Download the patch archive from the original post above
  • Unzip the patch archive in your game's /fonts directory
    for me it's ~/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/divine_divinity/fonts/ but may vary for you
  • Download the DD_font_patch_Linux.sh script from Github into the same directory
    if you can't figure how to download from Github, then inside the very same directory create an empty file and name it DD_font_patch_Linux.sh
    then open the script on Github, select the code as it is and copy
    then open the newly created file with whatever text editor and paste the code, save and close
  • Open a terminal inside the very same directory
    you can either find an option under Right-Mouse-Click menu, or just open terminal and enter the command:
    Code
    cd ~/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/divine_divinity/fonts/
    just don't forget to edit your directory accordingly
  • Make the script executable by running the command:
    Code
    chmod +x DD_font_patch_Linux.sh
  • Execute the script by running the command:
    Code
    ./DD_font_patch_Linux.sh
  • The rest will be prompted in your terminal window.


Enjoy your game, have fun!
