Changing the new menu font?

Post by Major Cooke »

So what is the new way for changing the menu font? Do we basically have to cut up the letters now and replace the new lumps?

Also, how do we stop the menu font from changing color based on the color ramp of the 'smallfont' lump, as that's what I'm told is the result of the color?

At the moment the font cannot be replaced. That will require work on how the font is constructed first so that replacing part of it won't remove the parts not present in the replacement.
And even if it is made replaceable it will probably reject any replacement only doing the base Latin characters without addressing the ones needed for other languages than English.

Regarding the color, at the moment the only way is to prefix every string with a color control code.
