Hi, i'm a AGS beginner and i'm following the totorial to learn how to do some of the basic stuff. Now, i've this problem: the manual say that i can load also TTF fonts type but i cant do it. When i select the font in the "fonts" windows folder and i click on "load"...nothing happen... ???

Another thing......how can i make a font looking smaller when i'm using the 600X480 resolution?

Thanks! :)

I think that's because of how Windows displays the Fonts folder. Try copying the font(s) you want to import to another folder, and open them in AGS from there. Also, right clicking on them and copy-pasting the file name might work.

I'm not totally sure about your second question, but maybe the 'Don't scale up fonts at 640x400' option on the General Settings page is what you want.
I know what you're thinking ... Don't think that.

Guess where I got this from:

QuoteNOTE: If you go to your Windows Fonts folder, you will not be able to select any fonts to import, since double-clicking them will open them up in the Windows Font Viewer . Unfortunately there is nothing I can do about this, you must either type the filename in manually, or copy the font to another folder and import it from there.

Right, from the manual/setting up the game/fonts tutorial

Well maybe you have an old version... :)

see @ Ashen - the basic font size is choosable anyway.
int do_you_like_me;
if (do_you_like_me == 1) Display ("You can call me Al");
else {}

Oh, ok....I'll try checking better the fonts size option in the general setting. Ã, ;)
