Is there any way to change the text font?
Like totally change the font for hero death messages...

If you do a mod, I believe you can simply overwrite the font file that's in the game.

If you're not doing a full mod, I don't believe you can change the typeface at all.

Okay, a couple of things:

1) Yes, indeed full mods can change fonts. Just open up WinMPQ and enter *ttf in the filter text-box.

2) You can only change fonts globally. That is to say, there are several fonts, each with a few functions, but they all have multiple uses. You can't, for instance, specifically change the font of the hero revival message, but you could change the font used for all ingame messages.

3) Sorry, it isn't possible in maps, because the UI directory in them doesn't load on its own and there isn't a game-interface option for fonts.
