Question about fonts
Posted: Sun Jun 28, 2015 7:55 am
I'm trying to add a custom TTF to the game. So far I've found only one way to do so - by using language files. Basically, I do something like that:
- in locale/en/all.cfg:
- in prototypes/style.lua:
It looks like it does something, but I'm getting this error while trying to run Factorio:
Is there any way to tell the game that this TTF file is inside my mod folder? Using __mod-name__ in the path doesn't seem to be working.
If I move my font to C:\Program Files\Factorio\data\core\fonts directory and set my locale file like this:
it works, but it is hardly a solution.
- in locale/en/all.cfg:
Code: Select all
[font]
my-font-name=path/to/font.ttfCode: Select all
data.extend({
{
type = "font",
name = "my-font-name",
from = "my-font-name",
size = 14
}
})Code: Select all
Error when opening C:/Program Files\Factorio\data\core\path/to/font.ttf for reading: No such file or directoryIf I move my font to C:\Program Files\Factorio\data\core\fonts directory and set my locale file like this:
Code: Select all
[font]
my-font=fonts/my-font.ttf
