Cool, thanks, guys. I'm thinking of doing a Doomified Chex font and maybe the Square font as well. Any takers?

Hmm when I used your 4th font in OP, the brackets were missing in Skulltag. They don't show up somehow.

Re: [Autoload] Altered Doom message fonts
Also to note that the third font in OP is missing the uppercase Y. It appears as an I. I'm pretty sure it's the third one, it's the one I'm using.

Re: [Autoload] Altered Doom message fonts
Umm, I don't think it does, actually. Testing it in-game reveals that both the uppercase and lowercase "Y" display properly.
The problem you're experiencing probably comes from the fact that the lowercase "y" (STCFN121) shares its lumpname with the | character in doom2.wad (which is also STCFN121). Just make sure that | character is not included in your WAD, or it will cause problems. When it is called upon to be displayed, ZDoom will simply draw a blank space.

Re: [Autoload] Altered Doom message fonts
So I can't use that with WADs that replace that character, or else it'll replace the uppercase Y?Jimmy wrote:Umm, I don't think it does, actually. Testing it in-game reveals that both the uppercase and lowercase "Y" display properly.

Re: [Autoload] Altered Doom message fonts
That's an error from Id Software's part. ZDoom will fix it if the font contains STCFN120 (x), STCFN122 (z) and then you can use STCFN124 (the proper ASCII value) for |. It's all explained on [wiki]FONTDEFS[/wiki].Jimmy wrote:The problem you're experiencing probably comes from the fact that the lowercase "y" (STCFN121) shares its lumpname with the | character in doom2.wad (which is also STCFN121).
