Bug in v2.57 beta with automatic outline fonts

Paper Carnival · Thu 30/10/2003 20:43:42

If I choose a font to be automatically outlined and I check the option "Don't scale up fonts at 640x400 resolution" the outline appears messed up... It might not be AGS though and be something related to my pc or something

had to make a new topic, did we?

huh? What do u mean? I've just tried out the beta version and I have found this bug, so I had to post a new topic. My other topic has nothing to do with it, so I couldn't put it there. Now, if you are saying that this is already said before then I'm sorry, but I didn't see it anywhere and I always search before I post

from the beta thread

"NO SUGGESTIONS IN THIS THREAD - BETA-RELATED TALK ONLY PLEASE"

so i'm sure you could have put it in there, after all, cj would read it there

I posted a bug in a new topics before (it was not a beta related one) and I didn't get a negative reply so I thought the right thing was to post a new topic again...

Quote"NO SUGGESTIONS IN THIS THREAD - BETA-RELATED TALK ONLY PLEASE"

doesn't necessarily say that I have to put bugs in there...

I also thing that posting them in new topics is better because more people will learn about it and would be easier to use this forum as a bugs reference

Okay, enough, who cares where it is.

CJ, could this be a bug? I hope not, I want this to work perfectly.

Was it a Truetype or SCI font that the problem was with? I had the feeling that the auto-outline was only meant for TTF, but I couldn't find any info to back that up...

Well, both types of font have this problem. I think I know what the problem is... The fonts are not scaled up but the outline is. Just a thought...

Well spotted, I'll get it fixed.

As for which forum - I'd rather that all beta-related problems were posted in the beta thread. The reason for this is that otherwise, people who are using the latest official release see a thread about "automatic outlines" and then start asking where the option is and how they use it.

It's no big deal though, doesn't really matter either way.
