SlidellMan Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I wanted to also know if it is possible to add accented letters (E. G.: Acute, Grave, Cedilla, Diaeresis, Macron, Breve, and Circumflex) and non-standard letters (E. G.: Æ, Ȝ, Ð, Ƕ, Œ, Ø, Þ, Ƿ, and Ʒ) to the Jaguar font? If so, how to program said letters functional?

LordKraken Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 One work-around could be to use the second set of letters (lowercase) to put your accented letters. But you would need a custom function to translater one into another. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Use the space after the lower case z.... and access them using $7b upwards - although I suspect you'd only get to $7f as $80 will fail the negative check for the termination. Or use some of the symbols or a few of the other fairly useless glyphs. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Gemintronic Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Lurking (as usual) and trying to follow both the question and the answer. I realize I can't find the font CyranoJ posted above. Did a search on pictures in the JagStudio folder. Also tried to find a reference in print.bas figuring it'd load it in somewhere. Where is this beautiful ASCII character set? UPDATE: Made a version myself. Probably needs tweaking for real use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlidellMan Posted March 31, 2021 Author Share Posted March 31, 2021 @GemintronicWow, that looks pretty slick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlidellMan Posted June 9, 2021 Author Share Posted June 9, 2021 Currently, I'm working on an edited font, and was wondering if any of the three fonts can have more than one color? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it not just point to that 8x8/8x16/16x16 location in the image? Top one is the original, the bottom one I changed the lower row of letters to a yellow color.

Are you sure your replacement font graphic is the same size and colour depth as the original? Edit: Also, it might not be documented at present, but the font/particle pallette is taken from the \assets\partipal.bmp graphic. So ultimately you need to update that BMP with your updated pallette.

EmOneGarand Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Just now, Sporadic said: Are you sure your replacement font graphic is the same size and colour depth as the original? Only changed the red color in the Color Table in photoshop to a different color, didn't change it from indexed or alter its dimensions from 960x16, saved it as a 4bpp bmp file. I'm trying to understand how the jsfFontIndx function works since it just uses an integer to select the row in the image if I'm understanding it correctly. I thought just changing the color of the second row would make the text color change if it pointed to jsfFontIndx(1) instead it just gives me that gibberish.

Sporadic Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Yes, font index will tell it which row to use. I'm guessing Photoshop isn't saving the image in the correct format. (Even though you are choosing 4bpp). Not having Photoshop here, I can't test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
