Please coders help, how do I use a custom font on this thing?
http://rpg.pwntendo.com
The "Final Fantasy 6" font has no special characters which I need. How do I use a custom font? It should be easy for anyone in here that knows how to code to figure it out.
I have tried downloading the page to try to modify it online but doesn't work when I open the html, the blue box for the text doesn't show up and the font is missing.
I just want to make dialog boxes in final fantasy style for an animation and this box would make me go way faster since I just need to add character name and text and "save as image". With paint I ned to align the text etc each time.

>try to modify it online

i am posting this from gentoo
please coders it should be fairly easy to do for you
>>51911753
Download page. Download *.js and *.css. Modify it. It's literally that easy if you get the paths right.

How to properly download the page? I tried "save as" but when I open the html in my hard disk, what I see is a mess, its only the text, with an incorrect form, and the blue box image is missing, and the actual final fantasy text doesnt show up when I write.
>>51911888
This is what I see.
I assume that this happens because the code contains the url for the image file for the blue box and also the custom font.
So I just need to change those urls to the location my hard disk? for example in the image
"C:/images/textbog.png"
and the font for the .ttf file? I will try.

I will give you a hint.

Ah you found it on github
Well Im trying to change the urls to local files in this case the already included final fantasy 6 fonts but im doing something wrong in the sintax... how do I properly point to a folder?
"url" is only for online or do I just add the folder path inside the ' ' for example I change
src: url('../fonts/FF6/final_fantasy_vi_snesb-webfont.eot');
to
src: url('C:/downloads/RPGTextboxGen-master\fonts\FF6final_fantasy_vi_snesb-webfont.eot');
because it doesnt work and i tried that
>>51912521
Where do you keep your html?
If it's in C:/downloads/RPGTextboxGen-master\
Then you can use:
src: url('./fonts/FF6/final_fantasy_vi_snesb-webfont.eot');
the "./" in beginning refers to "current folder", the "../" in the original code refers to "one folder up and then..:". I imagine that would work, I havent coded in javascript before.
>>51912657
Don't use the full path then, only use relative path like in the original code.
>>51912562
yes
that's the default so it should work as you download it excepet it doesn't...
also the bg image doesnt load, which is located at
bg.src = 'images/ff6_bg.png';
(line 89 in rpg-textbox-gen-0.1.js)
everything should load by default then but it doesnt
>>51912675
Yes i deleted the message because i realize full path doesnt work, but, as you realize it should work by default but nothing loads.. what is going on ? strange.
>>51911778
Screenshot.
>>51912675
Maybe its something to do in the index.html code? there are urls in here
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />

I downloaded the font and the bg image, and then edited the javascript and html files to use local file references instead of requesting files from the website

thanks
where do you reference final_fantasy_vi_snesb-webfont.woff tho?
also why did you delete the other font files? why woff and not the tlf files which are font files?
>>51915083
ok i see its referenced in the html file
i still don't understand why you use the woff file, why are the other fiels not necessary?
if I want to use a custom file that is a tlf file, do I just replace the .woff file with the .tlf file I watn to use in the html and it will work?
>>51911753
This guy is sick* or These guys are sick*.
>>51915151
I just downloaded the .woff because I was looking at the resources/fonts, and that's the only one that showed up in the html inspector. So I replaced that one in the html and that seemed to work.
For a custom font, you would probably replace the one in the html, plus change a line in the javascript filecontext.font = "116px FinalFantasyVISNESbRegular"
By the way, I don't really know what I'm doing. I've never really used much javascript before, so I'm just trying things to see what will work.
>>51915233
I ended up testing it out with a different font, and it sort of works (don't even need to change the javascript). The only thing is, the spacing is fucked up
>>51915355
its unfortunate that i am not english speaker because otherwise this would be perfect as it is but the font used by default doesnt make special characters
>>51915395
If you just put your font file in the folder, and then rename the font file in the @font-face part of the html header, it should work.
If it's too big or the spacing is fucked up, open the js file and edit the 116px to a different number

ko will try
