To do this, let's follow the 5 easy steps.

You can go Here to choose a font type. There are thousands of fonts you can find there.

Tips

Tip 1 - Some fonts on the link I gave you are all capitals, some fonts has no numbers, some fonts has huge file size, some fonts has low file size, some fonts are incomplete, some fonts has big and small font size, some fonts are just drawings. So choose wisely.

Tip 2 - The font does not affect floating text, player name on chat and player's chats.

Tip 3 - You can do multiple fonts on your map.

I was looking for how to do this.

It's just too bad I don't think it's worth crashing non-English WC3 users. :(

Although I don't really see a whole lot of practical use, I think this could be expanded if there was a sort of Code you could use in the Editor to change the font, like color code, but for font.

I'm more interested about how to change the font for the editor.
Make the difference between 'I' , 'l' for rawcodes is pretty hard, you have to guess and try because the result is the same ...

Just one question. How can this require JNGP when it doesn't look it requires the program?

It doesn't look like you do, but you do.

Isn't there a way to do this just by using the Import Manager and not Game Interface?

Try importing your custom font under the name Fonts\FRIZQT__.TTF?

Click to expand...

I've tried that before, though it didn't work.

I've tried with and without UMSWE enabled, and I have NewGen 5d, but I can't find the Font section. Even with hitting F to go to the font section, it's not there. Do I need another file added to the NewGen folder like for invisible chat?

I think you need to have an english editor, since i can't find it also, and i've not an english one.
Maybe it's like Risc's colorizer.

The Font section at the Game Interface is at the TOP part, the second one. Below chat. I dunno if my NewGen 5d is different. w8

EDIT: I forgot, i made this in 5b.
EDIT again :): I think the UMSWE needs to be enabled, as what jalisco said. of course, UMSWE is needed.:p

also, if you change games, like you play a game with a custom font and then you play a game like dota, it crashes.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
