I don't really know why i made this, after doing some research on what fonts were used in the original ALIEN (1979) movie, i thought some of them looked cool and would be fitting in Starfield (I really don't like the game's default fonts), so why not add them.


Some of the fonts are not the exact ones used in the movie, like the MU/TH/UR (Mother) one, as it seems to be a modified/extended version of Berthold City Light, but oh well, it's good and close enough.


Here's the fonts currently available :
  • Berthold City Light - closest resembling font to the one used on the MU/TH/UR (Mother) screens and computers in the original ALIEN (1979) movie.
  • Alte Haas Grotesk - I believe this is the exact or almost exact font used for the credits of the ALIEN (1979) movie, i haven't done mega in depth research so i definitely could be wrong (Probably Helvetica), regardless it looks pretty good and is pretty close, it's available in Bold, Regular, and a mix of the two.

In the future i might try to add the font used for the appearance of the ALIEN title, it seems to be Helvetica Pro Black($) and potentially more fonts from the franchise and related games.


Should be compatible with other UI mods, including StarUI and such, as long as they don't touch these two files :
  • fonts_en.gfx
  • fonts_en.swf


Installation : 
  • Install via mod manager or manually.


Known issues : 
  • Some fonts do not fit perfectly in some situations, like the ship's system HUD, instead of having your usual LAS MSL ENG etc, it might show only LA, MS, EN, not sure how to fix that specific issue.
