is there an optional way to put the sound font to the game files, so that the web player uses it when its found?
I haven't tested yet, but theoretically if you put the soundfont with the game it should work. The problem is the soundfont size will occupy RAM of the JS/WASM VM, so ideally one should use a soundfont that is as small as possible.
tested again with my game Maniac Mansion Mania Episode 53, looks like the game runs just a bit slower than normal
This may be a bug, I will check it. If you can report the platform you used to test I will use the same and see what I can find.
To double check, the one in browser version is older than one that comes with AGS?
It's, it's FreeType 2.0.6, from 2015, directly from Emscripten FreeType port. AGS version is much newer, I think 2.1.13 or something similar.
According to my own notes for myself I built FreeType from AGS repositories for WASM in the past, but I don't see how, I tried to build with the exact same machine, tools and got known errors. So I think my notes are misleading. But I don't have some errors with font rendering in the old build. I can't build the
exact same WASM I did in the past unfortunately. Anyway, I will look into FreeType with the people from FreeType itself and see how far I get - the build errors are in the C macros.
I will look more into this and try to figure out what happened, but the problem is either in Emscripten or my code (or FreeType), not ags.
Does this happen only in a browser port or everywhere in latest AGS?
It doesn't happen on the new SDL2 port, it was a bug on the old SDL2 port (the original Sonneveld code), which was the one the previous browser port was based on (so it happened there too).
