Is it possible to add my own fonts? I don't really like the default selection.

    Firemaplegames has a demo tutorial up on the games section.

    Personally I just make the text in Photoshop and import the image.

    i use 4 or 5 sets of custom fonts in my games and there never slow it down.

    No no. I mean if you have like a hundred pictures instead uf just fonts, then it slows down the game!
    I also use customized fonts... sooooo!

    Yes but you would never have 100 font images on 1 scene so you will not slow anything down :)

    cheers

    On a Level select screen, i guess :D

    Ok you're properly right ;D

    Well...not to bug you since you are probably right, BUT...
    In an adventure game, if you had some NPCs in a scene, each with an extensive dialogue tree, or otherwise has a lot to say, I would imagine one could reach 100 font images used in a scene... ;)

    AH, you probably meant 100 images used at once on the screen? In what I'm describing, the actor responsible for the dialogue would change the image for each subtitle. Perhaps I have nothing to fear then.

    TSB what do you mean by destroy after spawning? I apologize for the rude interruption between your guy's conversation.
