Ok, just thought I'd draw people's attention to another font I've *painstakingly* converted to V3 format. this one was pulled from the data files of the glorious Anachronox; not even sure if it's actually used in the game but it looks ace in V3, high and lo-res:

This font is nice looking, and I might end up using it, since it is small. What are the dimensions of the characters in this font?

The cells seem to be 8x8 pixels.

That would be about right, most of mine are. I had to extract all the image files from Anachronox, build a grid to place the characters on and copy by hand each of the letters from the font. Argh! The things we do for nice looking text, eh?

Wooly also made a really nice Font Maker that he recently updated for v3.

Font Maker 2

But that's a sweet font Interference :D

I have also ripped a font for enjoyment. It was a lot faster to outline, though, by making smart use of the 'Edge Detect' filter. Still took forever to paste (about half an hour) into a Verge-readable grid form, and also fill in the missing characters. This font is 9x15. Comments?

EDIT: I uploaded another font of mine, that I made during my early years as a verger, back in the verge2 days. This one is 7x9. Have fun.

I agree that Wooly made a really nice Font...
But it doesn't support chinese characters.

Maybe I'm just plain picky.

You're right! It also doesn't support extended ASCII. VERGE and Wooly are both discriminatory against non-anglophones... Of course, seeing as I am an anglophone, I could care less.

ok ok....
So our language is complicated. But I can't deny that the Font Maker 2 is helpful. Just thought Chinese characters would look cool, if nothing else. lol.

Being a french speaker, there is more chance that there will be a french version of Font maker 2 than a chinese one :) (And since I'll make a french version of War of Fire, I will probably do it)

Because it wasn't a bloody TTF. It'd been formatted to work on a tripped out version of the Quake 2 engine so I had to do everything by hand. It looks so NICE, though.

Fred: call me pedantic if you must, but I just thought I'd point out that some of the characters in that font have shadows going in the wrong direction.

Haha, well I'd love to see a Japanese set. But it's not going to happen. I don't even know how you type Asian languages. It seems impossible. Crazy asians. CrazyAzns. CrazyAznGamer.

...Whoa.

Who wants me to upload it?

Hey!

Awesome :) What characters are those? I can take a guess and say Katakana, but I've only briefly read about Japanese character sets...
