Bixby Sayz Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 (edited) As you may have guessed I've been playing around with a custom font (I know, you are totally surprised by this news). It is the font used by the Skill Guide that pops up when you click on a skill. It is also used to display the Npc names in dialogs. (See attached screenshot; items circled in red are all the same font). I have it working 100% with most of the characters. The only thing missing is a few punctuation symbols that don't appear to be used anywhere in the game. What I don't have is a name for the character set. I was thinking GuideChars or SkillGuideChars or I dunno... Edit: After much debate I created the font with 1 blank pixel to the right and bottom. Originally I omitted that so you would have to search with a spacing of 1 to find the text. But this makes a mess when you call LoadTextTPA: it crams the characters together so I added the space. So searching with a spacing of 0 will find the text because the 1 spacing is already included. And Freddy: According the (admittedly lacking) guide linked to in the other thread it mentioned you had to add a red shadow to font for it to work with SCAR, and I see OSI's fonts do this? I did not do this and yet it finds the text just fine (even though it does in fact have a shadow in the skill guide, but not in the Npc chat).

FHannes Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 The thing about the shadow isn't quite correct. The shadow is required for the rs_GetUpText function, the regular OCR does not use this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordJashin Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Nice! I think Shadow made a font for NPC's a while back...anyway there is a font-shadow adder for fonts I think in OSI's tools folder. Just in case you didn't know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
