Post subject: | The Most Thorough Rs Font Available |
I made the complete RuneScape font for normal chat and bold chat. I mean complete. It has literally all 192 characters which may be entered into RuneScape (including Alt+0151, which was intended to be an EM Dash, but was left blank, leading to an... Erm... Certain glitch with the censor :s). I had to pixel them entirely from scratch (while looking at original screenshots, of course), and it definitely took forever. I used the FontStruct editor, a free online Flash font editor that can export as TTF. I had to split the font into two because, surprisingly, a lot of the letters are quite different when bolded. All of the following are different in bold fonts: Wqw089,"'!$-;` In addition to those, practically all of the 97 characters that can only be obtained through ASCII codes (well, that is, on my keyboard) look significantly different when bolded. So basically, I had to make 289 characters - that's a lot of pixelling! ![]() Also, I noticed that there are a few minor character spacing issues in other RuneScape fonts - namely with characters like E, I, T, 1, 4, and generally anything that has single pixels sticking off the edges. I usually just manually shift the letters into their correct positions whenever I notice this issue, but I think it's better to not have to worry about that sort of stuff. So I went through the trouble of making sure all characters in my font are spaced properly. Anyways, here are those fonts: Normal RuneScape Chat Font : MediaFire · InteractiveRune · FontStruct Bold RuneScape Chat Font : MediaFire · InteractiveRune · FontStruct The correct font size for MS Paint users is 12, for most other programs it is 16. For Sal's, RuneHQ, Zybez, and most forums, it is size 3 And I also made a font kit (currently incomplete) to help with colors (as well as helping people who don't want to or cannot use the font): ![]() EDIT: I just realized some characters in the kit overlap each other >.<. Corrected ![]() EDIT: I uploaded each font to two more servers - one on MediaFire, and one at my own Google Site. I did this because FontStruct doesn't let you download without an account ![]() |

Wow, thanks, this is truly amazing. You did a great job. It's a shame they made a new font though, but I hope they change it back. |
