Changing Damage numbers font

    I notice in a few videos I watch people have custom fonts inserted into wow for things like chat but also more interestingly damage fonts ( the ones that appear over the targets head).

    Its really cool looking, and I'd love to have my own font in there, something a bit mroe sharper and snazzier then the originaly.

    However I cannot find the mod to make this work.

    If anyone has a little help for me I'd appreciate it.

    By the way, I think its called "QDFont" or something, does not work as it got discontinued or someting

    Can you replace the font file with the font you want to use instead?

    Mik's scrolling battle text works for this :)

    They are all combat scrolling texts

    The standard blizz font, that appears over the target s head, I want that changed,

    as far as i know you place the font you want to use in the font folder. That should then change the font in wow
