Title: Maximus Arcade Theme Editor- Font Bug
Post by: ZexisStryfe on November 27, 2014, 08:03:17 pm
So I have been working on a new theme for Maximus, but seem to have run into an issue due to the number of fonts installed on my system. If I scroll down the font list to a font after #255 I cannot select the font.  :banghead: It instead selects another font (I believe it is actually subtracting 255, so if I select font 300, it gives me font #45 in the list). Has anyone else run into this? If so are there any work around that don't involve me uninstalling all the fonts on my machine?

Thanks,

Never had an issue with the fonts, probably because i don't have +256 fonts installed  :P, but a made a quick test and it work, hope it helps:
- open the theme on the theme editor.
- with the theme editor open, locate the SKIN.INI file on the cache folder
- edit the font name
  look under [rom_title_yourthemedimension] for the titles
  look under [rom_list_yourthemedimension] for the rom names
- change the "family" entry, on the "style" row
     in this example I changed it to arial
     Style=[#family: "Arial", #style: "plain"]
- now save the modified ini file.
- now back to the editor, save you're theme.
- Open back the theme, it should have the new font added, again i do not have 256+ fonts installed, so i hope it does work for you.
Cheers
