WITE Custom fonts

[Zovs]

Use a smaller font for that usage (see top post).

I've looked at the top post. If it was that easy, I wouldn't be postnig a message here. I've copied and pasted all sorts of fonts out of this post, changed font #2 to 8 then 6 size and nothing changes.

[Zovs]

Currently what I am using is this:

//Wite Font Config File
//*********************************
//Font id,Name,Size,0-normal/1-bold
//*********************************
//
//Default Fonts
//
//1,Arial,14,0
//2,Arial,10,0
//3,Arial,18,0
//4,Verdana,7,0
//5,Verdana,8,1
//6,Verdana,7,0
//7,Georgia,18,0
//8,Verdana,7,1
//9,Verdana,9,0
//
// Standard type fonts:
//
// Microsoft Sans Serif ** like it
1,Microsoft Sans Serif,14,0
2,Microsoft Sans Serif,10,0
3,Microsoft Sans Serif,18,0
4,Microsoft Sans Serif,8,0
5,Microsoft Sans Serif,10,1
6,Microsoft Sans Serif,7,0
7,Microsoft Sans Serif,18,0
8,Microsoft Sans Serif,7,1
9,Microsoft Sans Serif,9,0

I have no issues, some of the fonts I tried above are horrid looking, you have to tweak the settings till you get a mix you feel you like.

Something else is going on then. I've copied and pasted your post into the WiteFontConfig.txt file, saved it, restarted the game, and nothing changes. I still get the overwriting

This is strange. Just tested with retail 1.01 and it worked just fine. Can you make sure that file has the original name and placed in dat folder? You may attach config file to the post, so I could check it.

Just in case, after pasting Don's config you need to decrease size of some fonts especially #2.

[whippleofd]

Turns out it was a PEBKAC error. I was changing the numbers on the lines beginning with // vice changing the numbers at the bottom. Upon changing the numbers in the correct area of the file it works like a champ.

Thanks to you both.

I noticed that when I installed WitE v1.02 Beta 1, that my WiteFontConfig file from above was replaced by the default one. Good thing I put the contents of my modified one here in this thread....

[Helpless]

The patch is comprehensive it contains all the files missing or changed since 1.00. It is always good t make DAT folder backup if you did any modding.

I love the Russian font!! However, as I am now living in Ukraine and having a devil of a time learning both Ukrainian and Russian as well as reading both, I can not use this font because it will really really really really screw with my 58 year old mind. But none the less it is pretty dang cool

After looking at all those fonts I am now blind.

Wish I had found this thread sooner, thanks so much!!!!

[Zovs]

This is my newest font I like it a lot especailly in full zoom, it reminds me of GDW's Fire in the East.

Zoomed 2 in mud stalled...

Zoomed 1 stuck in the mud

[Zovs]

David,

[G Felzien]

This is a terrific addition to the game! Thanks guys.

[Shupov]

I'm using dlazov66's fonts but still getting text overwrite on Air Base display:

[Shupov]

Does anyone have a font config file that solves the text overlap problem on the screen above? If so, please share.

[DrewBlack]

Hi

Which number do i amend to get this font to work so there is no overlapping.

Thanks

Not in the "programming" world, in the "language with C-like syntax" world.
