Shadow, do you have any smaller fonts than the ones in the font directory? I was hoping for like an 8 or 6 or are they something that I could just make or convert?

Oh yeah, I was also wondering if there's a chance that we might be able to attach .7z files? I just like them because they're stellar compression and it's open source so it's free.

Thanks.

I don't believe there is a way to turn off the use slot popup info. Someone creative is bound to prove me wrong though.

Ok, I built some smaller fonts you guys can use. I don't know how readable they are going to be though. Just download http://www.soldak.com/files/SmallerFonts.zip and stick the zip directly into your assets directory. Once you do this you should be able to use Gentium6, Gentium8, and Gentium10 which are just smaller versions of the font already used in the game.

One of these days I'll have to add the font tool into the SDK so you guys can make your own fonts. It basically just converts TrueType files into something usable by the game.

The game won't be able to read them. In general it's probably just easier to zip them up in the correct directories. Then people can download and just place the zip directly in the assets directory and not even need to unzip anything unless they want to check out the changes.

Thanks again!

Is there a way to align fonts to the right? Left obviously is just don't put in any fontposition in.

Also, does anybody know of a free .fft to .fnt text converter?

Thanks.

[torikamal]

Sorry. One more question: Does anybody know how to make statbars vertical? Thanks again.

[Shadow]

You can only align text to the left and center right now.

You can't get a converter to the fnt format since it's our own format. I'm sure plenty of people could create one since it's not complicated or anything, however I'll put our font converter in the SDK soon enough.

There is also no way to do vertical stat bars right now.

Apparently, I'm just not being really helpful today.

Ok, version 1.010 will have 2 new text alignments types: centerLeft and centerRight.

Version 1.010 will also have vertical stat bars and have the ability to reverse the direction of the stat bars.

[Delve]

Woo! How about stat bars at arbitrary angles?

[torikamal]

Man, I really appreciate all your help! Please don't feel obligated to do stuff, though--I really only meant to see if anybody had already done it--I wasn't trying to hint for you to have to go out and make those additions. However, uh...I will take them!

So, anyway, thanks.

Does anybody know how to export textures? I see a bunch of ctx files in the assets, but I can't figure out how to modify them--the lines actually call for tga, so these must be compressed forms of tga. I'm almost done with the mod I've been working on and this is one of the final areas I haven't been able to figure out. Any ideas?
