Through a combination of dissecting some fonts Jimmy has posted and looking through font discussions/posts from some really helpful members on the boards, I've managed to get my own custom small font working. I've noticed though that for any characters not included in my small font, they appear as spaces in game. Examples include {, }, and |, which are not included in my font file. Looking at some other small fonts (such as the Gargoyle small font posted by Jimmy) though, I see that you can optionally include lowercase characters for your font, which come after all of your uppercase characters. And after all the lowercase characters appear to be the slots for the last few characters such as {, }, |, etc. So I have two questions then:
1) Is it possible in-game to force a font to only use the uppercase characters, even if the lowercase versions are present in the font?
2) Is it possible to add the extra characters at the end of a font ( {, }, and | ) without providing all of the lowercase characters?
Any help is much appreciated!
