HUGE font in MameWah
« on: October 05, 2003, 05:06:58 pm »
Hi there,

I have just begun tinkering with Mamewah, but for some reason I the 'main' font is absolutely huge.  ???
Hence, when I press '2' to change my Options, I can only see the first 3-4 letters of the top line of the Options box.
Also, the game list only shows ~6 letters of each game title... there's simply not room for more.
I run Mamewah at 1024x768 currently.

Has anybody seen this problem and knows a fix for it?

You can change the font size in the layout editor.

I also had this error when I ran Mamewah for the first time on my german Version of XP.

Try to set your system settings to US-English, reinstall Mamewah and you should be fine.

That did the trick for me...

You might want to have a look at this thread http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=3;action=display;threadid=11781

As Jaxxon says, try setting your language to English.  Also, you will probably have to set your Decimal Symbol to '.' (rather than ',').

You should not have to re-install tho...
