Try going into the Script Editor, go to Main and right under:

Code: [Select]
$scene = Scene_Title.new

put:

Code: [Select]
Font.default_italic = false

If that doesn't work, upload a new project and I will take a look.
Also, what font are you using?

I'm not sure why it would be in italics in the first place. It's weird.

It is very strange. I wonder if he's using a title script where the scripter didn't know what s/he was doing, or whether he is using a font that is designed as italicized, but I can't say for sure until I see a project.

This may sound strange, but check something like Microsoft Word or something and see if the Tahoma font works properly.

Also, if that seems normal, could you do as Modern suggested and upload a sample project?

That's... definitely not supposed to be like that. It's like that in the game too?

Yup, its so wierd =/
Well i cleaned my registry and defragmented my harddrive, maybe it messed it up or something.

I see the text as normal, so it's just your computer itself. The good news of this is that you can keep making your game like you normally do, and it'll appear just fine to everyone who plays your game.

Has this ever happened on this particular computer before?
