Title: Font like Kings Quest(First Word starting with Capital Letter)
Post by: agentbauer on Sat 30/10/2010 11:10:16
I searched the whole forum, but didn't find anything.
I want to use a font like the one in kings Quest V.
First word starts with a capital letter, like this:

Is this possible in AGS and if, how?
Would be great if anyone could help me... :D

The Hypertext module (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=29358.0) should be capable of doing that.
Import/create a font with those big letters, then switch to the normal one after the first letter.

What your referring to agentbauer is commonly known as a dropcap. AGS doesn't support actual dropcapping but as Khris says, you can mock one up using various tricks. The Hypertext module is a good place to start.

Cheers,
Sparky.
