where is the q3font 1.52 source

(Keymaster) #1

I’ve scoured the intarwubz looking for this and came up empty handed. Can anyone point me in the direction of the q3font 1.52 source? There’s a bug related to glyph offsets that I’d like to see if I can fix. I’m not terribly fond of tweaking the .fnt and recompiling for every new render :stuck_out_tongue: Okay thanks bye!

P.S. I thought about just fixing it in the 1.00 source but I like the way 1.52 renders the glyphs better

This program is absolutely great :smiley: Hope you can even further improve it.

Afaik a font for q3 is just a dump of a fontInfo_t structure (defined in q_shared.h). And the letters are stored in the alpha channel of tga-files (these are the shaders). Take a look in the .dat-files and the corresponding .tga-files.
