Title: [SOLVED] Setting Speech Font for a particular Character?
Post by: Rik_Vargard on Thu 17/10/2024 19:05:57
I'd like to have a certain character to use a specific speech font.
Is that possible?
I use version 3.6.1

Cheers!

Yes, I wrote a very detailed description of how to do exactly that in this post (https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/forums/index.php?msg=636510794).

Snarky's detailed answer is the best step by step approach and definitely the way to go.

I am just going to mention two things to give options.

If you have a custom say for all your characters, you throw an if clause there in your custom say to check if it's the character specific and then use the character specific font.

Another approach if you use my fancy module (https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/forums/modules-plugins-tools/module-fancy-0-1-0/) is to just insert the font tag in the text strings directly. This is a lot more trouble, but just mentioning because it is a possibility.

I'm currently at point 6 of the tutorial and it's working great!  (nod)

Even with the explanations my brain doesn't understand it all but I can see me creating my own functions one day  (laugh)

Thank you so much for the replies, and for the tutorial.

Cheers!
