Finding Fonts

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ostrich Riders failed to work on Mint because of the hard-coded path to
the font file. I asked on the FreeGameDev forum what is the best way to
find a font file. In general the response was don't bother just include
the font with your game. I know Fedora and other distributions don't
like that. I decided to write up an article talking about changing
Ostrich Riders to use fontconfig library. Hopefully it will encourage
other developers to handle fonts in a more distribution friendly way.
