Oh yeah! I've been waiting for this for a long time!
I really love it. The ticker font gives an incredible deepness effect. Also, at least for me, it keeps my eyes more relaxed, I have less fatigue when reading your font samples. Thanks for your work :D

This looks great! Will this work on top of SeeD Reborn?

Yes this works fine with Seed Reborn, it uses the same hashmap codes so if you already have that installed then you don't need the excel sheet, just replace the sy folder.

Updated the font to version 2. Of course I will leave version 1 link there for those who prefer it. Enjoy!

The interrogations and the scripts show some glitch in their areas (i use it with Seed Reborn). Can you  solve it please? Thanks

Will you ever include a replacement for the damage/healing numbers that appear in battle to closely match the psx ones?

Its hard to find font that is similar to damage numbers but I've already replaced the HP with new similar font, I will probably create a new topic with a UI overhaul when its ready. I'm really busy at the moment but here is where I currently am in regards to the new font you can view it below. The only letter I'm not happy with for the new font is the Capital 'W' but if there's enough interest I could release the font earlier in this topic if you want
