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?

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.

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