It just dawned on me there's no LoadImageFont in Monkey like in BMax. How are you guys drawing text on the screen? |
| ||
FontMachine and such... :) |
| ||
Angelfont example included with Monkey... along with Shoebox's free Photoshop font export tool at http://www.renderhjs.net/shoebox/ that supports the AngelFont format. |
| ||
I was using Angelfont but moved to FontMachine. having used both I would suggest Fontmachine , Angelfont was allways very buggy for me. |
| ||
Taiphoz - what bugs and which version? If I know about them then I can fix them. I'm guessing you are talking about an early version. Have you tried the latest version on the angelfont thread? |
| ||
I load a font image, grab frames, put these in an array, go from there. :) |

Does FontMachine have Full Justify mode? |
| ||
I never found bugs in Angelfont except for things missing like offset. It never caused unexpected problems once I got it working (which are the sort of bugs I really care about). |

Oh I like AngelFont. Had some trouble getting a font imported that I made myself but that was a learning curve. I just need full justify and I'm golden. |
