Get your grubby mitts on this Fallout font

Post by Kreegle »

<strong>[ -> N/A]</strong>

A very charitable chap that goes by the name of .:somebody:. (yes, that's his name) has kindly donated his Fallout font to us! It's very similar to the one used in our menu system (look up), but not quite... Take a look:<blockquote><center><a href="http://www.duckandcover.net/fallout/fil ... .zip"><img src="http://www.duckandcover.net/kreegle/dem ... .:somebody:. says <blockquote><em>The font should not be used in a program like Photoshop or similar, which has its own smoothing engine - that makes it look wrong. If you use it in, say, MSPaint at size 6 it'll look right - just like the original in the game.</em></blockquote> Lovely. Grab it from <a href="http://www.duckandcover.net/fallout/fil ... ">here.</a> Thanks .:somebody:.!<br><br>Oh, and by the way, for those who are interested, we've opened up the <a href="http://www.duckandcover.net/fallout/fil ... l">Fallout 1 file section</a>. Hurray!

So um Kreegle, where's mine?

Good to see Jorio's back as he was my inspiration for my own font - which happens to boast a few extra features: mainly that it's scalable, and it's "perfection" compared to Jorio's is left to the eye of the viewer.

It's second great feature is that it features the ENTIRE Latin set, as well as the Latin-1 Supplement set characters...

You're supposed to use my font in 9pt, and as Jorio's NOT IN PHOTOSHOP, as it screws everything up with it's weird anti-aliasing.

A perfect example of it, is in the v13 template in the forums. All the text icons were made using my font (by me for that matter).

Send me an email with it, Red. And an example image - like Jorio did.
