Title: Where do I input font changes?
Post by: shintashi on December 10, 2010, 12:35:29 AM
in the script editor, I'm trying to change the font across the board. Nothing spectacular, but basically

self.contents.font.name = "my_font" #newly added font by shintashi
    self.contents.font.size = 20 #newly added font size


While I can get it to work for windows_status and some portions of the skill menus, in some areas, such as the skill description window, I'm not sure where (or what) to put. I basically need "addresses", like

"around game actor line 362" or something.

Do you mean simply changing the game font?

If so, Font.default_name = 'MY FONT NAME'
Font.default_size = NUMBER


This will be overridden by any script for a window that explicitly defines the font in the manner in you example, so delete them lines if needed. This code can be placed anywhere outside of any script, or used in script calls.

I just put this where 'Main' section is, was alot easier for me.

#==============================================================================
# ** Main
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  After defining each class, actual processing begins here.
#==============================================================================

begin
  # Default font face
  Font.default_name = "Arial"
  # Default font size
  Font.default_size = 20
  # Prepare for transition
  Graphics.freeze
  # Make scene object (title screen)
  $scene = Scene_Title.new
  # Call main method as long as $scene is effective
  while $scene != nil
    $scene.main
  end
  # Fade out
  Graphics.transition(20)
rescue Errno::ENOENT
  # Supplement Errno::ENOENT exception
  # If unable to open file, display message and end
  filename = $!.message.sub("No such file or directory - ", "")
  print("Unable to find file #{filename}.")
end
