I think it's using a font similar to Arial.

(Is it just me, or did none of the previous posts actually answer the question?)



I don't know of a specific JJ2 font. The characters you see in the game is just a bitmap font, unlike the TTF or FON Windows fonts. (meaning you can't directly convert the characters used in JJ2 to a Windows font)

There may be however, other fonts that are very close to those in JJ2, but I don't know of any off the top of my head.

I don't think that there's a font like that available, but I have an idea of how it was made. It's too long to explain, but it's similar to how I make homemade Jazz 2 icons and pictures.

I suppose it is possible to convert the font, but it'd be too much trouble for what it's worth. On the other hand, the Descent II font was very worth it. ;D

Does anyone know how to make a font then?

I want to make one if it doesnt exist yet.

Anm (Deluxe Paint animation for the ones want to know http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif) is a picture format, like .bmp, .gif and .jpeg are. The pictures of the JJ1 sets in the Tiles folder of your JJ2 folder are in .anm format. Right now, i'm dying to know what program can read that format!

I don't think the jj2 fonts can be converted to TrueType since the JJ2 font uses a lot more colours.

Actually, Newspaz, it's not because it uses a lot more colors, it's because it USES colors. Windows-based fonts only have two colors, black and white. Of course, there are the multiple colors for fonts too.

Cant we make a font without the colors and only using the black-white version of the letters?

Electric Ir
Apr 27, 2001, 01:01 AM
Yes, that *is* possible..

There is the bigger font in the menus too, but that isn't as good...

I like that font.

Newspaz

Oh eh, that thingh of Electric still only gives you ONE font color. And no contour, shading, fill. So we get back to the problem.

Electric Ir
Apr 30, 2001, 06:40 AM
Yeah.. The program is kinda missing functions..

JJ3 font kills the JJ2 font.

true roaster..

Assassin
May 14, 2001, 06:35 AM
Can you convert it??

I've got noooooo idea how to do that.

Newspaz
May 14, 2001, 06:38 AM
I still like the JJ2 font better. and the jj2 font can't be converted because of colour usage.

ShadowGPW
May 14, 2001, 07:08 AM
er.. wrong, IT'S possable.. problem is ive don't have the program for it..

but Does SomeOne have the Prog To convert it ?

Wild Angel
May 18, 2001, 10:03 AM
I don't think the JJ2 chat font was ever truley a font. Unless you try something like cutting every single letter out of the alphabit using screenshots, I dunno how it will work. I am not a genius at fonts, but I do my best to help. :P

Assassin
May 18, 2001, 10:39 PM
So nobody has the program?

I'll make it myself then with that program of Electric (thanx again) in the summer vacation.

I don't have time now http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif

If nobody has a program to convert it does anybody have a program that can read ANM files then?

And Shadow, could you mail me that fonf file you have(thought it was an ANM file)??

Wild Angel
May 19, 2001, 12:29 AM
I don't think I have a useful program.
