hey shock nice font m8! just 1 slight glitch if you've noticed no 1 pixel space between m and n,
also between w and x!

great work just wonderd if you'd noticed.

ps i do realise may have been pixel restraints that forced this!

i just tried to convert this to binary using my blitz program it basically loads the font in as an anim image strip and i cant get to the z as i think there must be one or two pixels out on the strip.

Nope, the Z is in the right place, I've used it!

its strange that when i try to get to it blitz gives me an error saying image frame out of range all the other letter convert fine.

could you mabey try to load the font in a blitz anim image strip and let me know if it works for you?

Mmm, sorry Nino, I don't have Blitz here, but I'd suggest that maybe you're giving the wrong width for the letters?

Nb, if you're still stuck I will try on the other computer (which does have blitz) later.

im definitly stuck!  :)

im trying a width and height of 31 and it loads the 58 chars but when i try and display the 58th one or the z its giving me image frame out of range?

im shure i have the width and height correct as if i change it to any other -1+1 the displayed font messes up

actually the font works fine i just tested again.

the problem must be coming from something ive done ill get to the bottom of it for sure cheers mate!

No problem Nino. I just had a thought though.
When I used this font, I made the width of the total image divisible by 8, that might be what is confusing loadanimimage. There would be a few pixels left over at the end.

I can't see that breaking it, but it might have.

i got it going! 8)

i had to put an extra 31 pixel space betwenn the ! and ( but thats because of the way im doing things and it all works fine your font looks cool sined with a texture through it btw.

im going to post up what i have soon im just speeding everything up with some pointer arithmatic.
