Graphical / [FFVIII] Working on a font replacer
« on: 2015-01-26 05:56:55 »
So I'm working on a new replacement for the font/text within the game.
I'm using a japanese font identical to the Japanese PC release of FF8, which had been redone and now looks much better and also cleaner than what is available for our version, so I wanted to copy that as closely as possible for the most pure experience with a slightly more modern look.
However after I got it working through Tonberry, I've run into a problem, in game it shows up all jagged and messed up, despite the fact it's a 1024x1024 texture and is perfectly smooth and tidy when viewed outside of the game, am I missing something here or is there some limitation that is unavoidable or what's the the deal here? Surely there's a way to fix how text displays.
Any information would be much appreciated.
