New Font?

[RAIST]

Do you have a CD/DVD burner and software to burn them? Then you are a pirate......nevermind that you have a legal right to make one personal use backup copy of any media you have purchased and still have the original source copy.

This has been beaten to death countless times in various media: Mode of use for a tool determines if you are breaking the rules, not the existence of the tools themselves.

Never said I was using Windower--you just assumed that. That isn't the only tool that can access the registers to toggle graphics features off. Tools like ATT and 3D Analyze are system level tools, and have nothing to do with what program you are running--they work directly with control registers and DirectX/driver features. There are others I've used in the past, but they are grossly outdated and for chips no longer in production (S3, 3dfx, etc.)--some were even dos utilities you had to run trhough batch files or directly from the command line.

I actually like the font, the grainy look of the old one that I was never able to completely fix with registry resolution tweaks etc bothered me. It seems to have been amateurishly designed though. The spacing of letters is not consistent at all. My name appears like this:

C h o c o bit s. "C" space "h" space "o" space "c" space "o" double space o.O "b" "i" "t" double space again o.O "s".

Please run the font through an image editor again and l2font.

After analyzing all of the various bug reports, complaints about game play systems, the relevance of certain jobs and the path that jobs are taking into the future, we have come to the conclusion that the Type font used in the game was the issue. We have changed the type font. Please do not comment on any issues that existed prior to the Type Font change, they have all been resolved with the use of the new Type Font.

Thank you,
The Management

This is what I get when I try to read names at a distance, some people have said that turning up the graphics would fix this, how does one go about doing that?

Ok so what do I have to change to be able to read names again? Screen resolution?

EDIT: hmm when i try to change my screen resolution the game changes it back, any ideas?

Except it hasnt been updated yet. And SE changed the way they do the fonts now so it isn't easy to change back.

XI view was updated shortly after the servers went down. Except for the names, which were left the same. And it actually is not the all that hard to fix for the new format. I put something together for my comic sans.dat in less than 2 hours, most of which was figuring shit out, and i could do a new one is probably 30 minutes. However because of SE's shitty job spacing the letters, and also using an italic font, the spacing between letters looks atrocious.
