HUD messages font

So what's the deal with the font used for the in-game HUD messages? The ones I'm talking about are things like 'Picked up and Assault Rifle', or 'Make your way to the bridge'. I know the strings can be edited in the map itself, but what of the font? I'm not expecting some sort of magic application that will change for you, like the font editor for multiplayer chat.

If anybody knows where this font is stored, or if it can be edited, I'd love to know.

I think I found an alphabet texture when I was going through bitmaps.map.
Check that.

I'll have a look at the at the textures in ui.map. I don't think it's there though.

Question answered: It's not a bitmap or alphabet texture. You compile a font tag in CE using a windows font.
