CP1 changed my ingame font to the same font that is used on CP1's load screen.

What was the original font and how do I get it back?

The font in the load screen is the same as the in-game font. Because the original font was mis-aligned with the new loadscreen, they use this new one instead (which I personally like). It's a lot easier solution than designing the loadscreen again. You can change your fonts by editing the stylemgr file, but note that then the loading screen most likely looks bad again.

I personally don't mind if the loadscreen looks bad, as there is no information on there that I would need anymore. It's also not there for anymore than 5 seconds at a time.

I personally don't like the new font, and would like to replace it with the original one.

The font was changed so that CP1 wouldn't be delayed. I designed the new load screens, and I have been using the modification for some time and I forgot about it. If the demand is high, I will re-design the load screen for the original font, but for the sake of getting CP1 out, the font I use was included.

You can't change the load screen font without changing the in-game font, so thats the reason it had to be done. Also, I use the font because it makes it easeir to distinguish characters that the original font made it impossible to differentiate. I.E. LI1l

I understand why it had to be done, I just personally didn't like it. Smile

Maybe you can just edit the 4 load screans and just paint next in to them and save the text in the picture. Instead of geting the text from a file and then dispaying text over the picture. I can't explain this well but i hope you get it.

The text is automatically overlayed on the loadscreen by the game. I suppose what you are saying could work, if we just deleted the text outright, so there would be no extra text overlaid, and the text would instead be part of the image.

Verry difficult to do, I have no intent of doing it that way. If the demand is there for it to be re-done, I will, if not, the ones who don't like it can deal with it.

If you are taking about my idea it actualy not that hard to do. Took me 15 mins to take out all the load screen text. And I would of been done sooner but I messed up in 4 places and it took like 5 mins to find where I put an extra spaces.

PS were can i get the BETA CORE PATCH 1 loadscreen's backround image?

Its hard to do because I have no Photoshop experience what-so-ever so it would take me a while to figure out how to write text on the files intself, which would be difficult itself seeing as the files are split into 4 parts.

Also, why would you want that ugly old thing?

I am not the only one, they didn't revert back to the default load screen 30 seconds after they released yours for no reason. :rolleyes:

I reverted back to the old font and it looks perfectly aligned to me, but it's probably because I'm using 1024x768.

The only thing I can't read is the message in the upper-right corner--it mentions something about a bonus, but I can't read it because it continues off the screen. Why is that?
