GU Text

Post by RCON »

Has anyone been sucessful in using a custom font with the GU Text sample?

I have tried the bitmapfontbuilder program hinted to at this thread: http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=6250 but I cannot get it to display anything but corrupted graphics.

If you have any idea on how to correctly create the font.raw file and get it to work please let me know! Thanks

I modified the text demo to use a slightly fancier font format and included source for a program that can create font data from truetype fonts (using freetype2). Available under the BSD license, like the pspsdk:
