General asset questions

Okay. The GMST bug is fixed. The fix will not affect previously created omwgame files. These are broken.

@psi29a: Do you need a fix for your file or can you remake it? A fix would be possible, but it would require temporarily inserting a few lines into the source and the fixed file would still carry the surplus sBribe GMST.

No worries, I had just created the file yesterday for testing. I can easily reproduce what I was working on.

Thank you for looking into this! Lets see if I get any further...

A teaser...




Obviously if anyone wants to help, I won't say no.

Another question... I can get text to render with the oldstyle fnt/tex fonts, but I want to use our new TTF that is being developed. How do I use one over the other?

-rw-rw-r-- 1 bcurtis bcurtis 262152 Jul 14 12:57 Magic_Cards_Regular_0_Lod_A.tex
-rw-rw-r-- 1 bcurtis bcurtis 14632 Jul 14 12:57 Magic_Cards_Regular.fnt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 bcurtis bcurtis 37624 Mar 9 07:41 Pelagiad-Regular.ttf

What file do I need to modify and where? Morrowind.ini and/or openmw.cfg?

I tried this, but it didn't work:
fallback=Fonts_Font_0,pelagiad_regular
fallback=Fonts_Font_1,magic_cards_regular
fallback=Fonts_Font_2,century_gothic_font_regular
fallback=Fonts_Font_3,daedric_font

Pretty good work and I very much appreciate it too!

Where do you get your models? I'd offer some of my not up to bar with standards models, but I'm sure you can get better stuff online.

[Zini]

openmw.cfg

Morrowind.ini is only for backwards-compatibility and is not considered unless you do an ini import.

openmw.cfg

Morrowind.ini is only for backwards-compatibility and is not considered unless you do an ini import.

OK, then how does this work?

fallback=Fonts_Font_0,pelagiad_regular <-- this doesn't work

If I wanted to include a ttf, how do I do that?

@DestinedToDie: at the moment, I'm not using any models... I have a empty (except for header) base_anim.nif file that OpenMW doesn't complain on. This should get me further. Right now I'm just working on the GUI (mygui) graphics.

I am not sure about the current state of the font loader. @scrawl: ?

Anyway, I tried and it won't load my font. I even tried DejaVuLGCSansMono.ttf and no-joy.

my openmw_font.xml looks like this:

I have both DejaVuLGCSansMono.ttf and Pelagiad-Regular.ttf in my fonts directory (where the other bitmap font is that does work). Is there any other place I need to update/modify?

DataManager::getData: Failed to open 'Pelagiad-Regular.ttf'

I get this... the file exists, I've tried making it simple, and still no go.
