Well, you could just change the script in Blizz's Override... Some basic font like 'Times New Roman' or 'Arial' or 'Arial Black' should be good to substitute a font in for the time being.

here's more specifics

I made it withy legal enterbrains

when I play the game, (not on my comp, on another WinXP with RMXP installed) the text in message boxes dosen't show.

I'm also using Slipknot/Dubalex's AMS for images, so yeah.

I need this fixed so that I can present my game tomorrow to english class, cuz it's my Senior Perspective Project

It probably just doesn't have the font file.  If the font works on your computer, then I believe what you need to do is find the font file you're using and copy it into your game folder.

Fonts files can be usually found in C:\WINDOWS\Fonts

Find the font file with the same name from there, copy it out to your game folder.

Then, you can either manually tell the player to put it in their C:\WINDOWS\Fonts folder, or find a font-auto-installing script. (Wachunga made one, it's somewhere. If it's not on this forum it's surely on hbgames.org; I've seen it there)
