Odd Custom Font Issue
Posted: Wed Jul 11, 2018 11:13 pm
To start, this isn't actually my mod but someone else's that I've been fixing up (Brutal Doom 64). For the longest time, there's been an issue with the font where it writes from the top down (that's probably not actually what's happening, but is a good quick explanation). I've been looking to fix it for a while and this problem is driving me insane because I have absolutely no idea how to do it.
Here's what I mean:

Notice the periods. This happens with all characters including -, _, and ,. How it's set up is that in the map wad itself are a series of textures set to replace Doom's default fonts FONTA*** and FONTB***. These textures are in both the patch table and TEXTUREx table (if there's a better way to do this, I'm all ears since I didn't set this up and would gladly do it a better way). There's no FONTDEFS file defined either. What's strange is that both the large font and console font don't seem to have this issue meaning it's just the small font that's giving problems.
