Is there a font of the letters of Jazz2 (I mean the letters where ur name is spelled of)???

Cpp Apr 25, 2001 11:07 AM

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

Wild Angel Apr 25, 2001 12:06 PM

I like it. [img]http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

(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.

PinkDaizy Apr 25, 2001 03:36 PM

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.

SteelTalon Apr 25, 2001 06:31 PM

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

Assassin Apr 25, 2001 09:11 PM

Does anyone know how to make a font then?

I want to make one if it doesnt exist yet.

Shadow has it in anm format :P

Stijn Apr 25, 2001 11:07 PM

anm? is that a font format?

Aiko Apr 26, 2001 07:08 AM

newspaz, what your waiting for then??? ask shadow to convert it to true type! or let someone else do it.

JelZe GoldRabbit Apr 26, 2001 07:29 AM

Anm (Deluxe Paint animation for the ones want to know [img]http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]) 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.

ElectroPiZZa Apr 26, 2001 11:24 AM

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.

I have always wanted that funky JJ2 font!

PinkDaizy Apr 26, 2001 07:22 PM

I have [img]http://members.hometown.aol.com/pinkdaizy11/images/jj2.gif[/img] font. Also in [img]http://members.hometown.aol.com/pinkdaizy11/images/color.gif[/img]!

No, just kidding, those are only parts of screenshots.

Newspaz Apr 26, 2001 09:49 PM

I ment that Pizzie =)

Assassin Apr 27, 2001 12:09 AM

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..

Newspaz Apr 27, 2001 04:18 AM

Well, let's do it =)

Assassin Apr 27, 2001 05:35 AM

Im working on the font.



BTW tnx Electric

UrbanMenace Apr 28, 2001 12:35 AM

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

Electric Ir Apr 28, 2001 12:39 AM

Thanks [img]http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] And well, I would like to thank my computer magazine [img]http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]



Wild Angel Apr 29, 2001 05:25 PM

I like that font.

Newspaz Apr 30, 2001 03:02 AM

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..


Roaster May 14, 2001 03:23 AM

JJ3 font kills the JJ2 font.

ShadowGPW May 14, 2001 05:21 AM

true roaster..



well ive got the font here but it still needs to be converted into a Font file.. =P

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..

UrbanMenace May 14, 2001 07:42 AM

Why not with black dots? See your newspaper for details [img]http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img]

Wild Angel May 14, 2001 03:26 PM

*sigh*

Assassin May 15, 2001 06:54 AM

DOES ANYONE HAVE A PROGRAM TO CONVERT THE FONT????

SEND IT TO SHADOWGPW PLZ!!!

Electric Ir May 16, 2001 12:53 PM

Calm down, Papa Roach fan.


UrbanMenace May 17, 2001 09:12 AM

I don't know why, but that sounded funny [img]http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img].



Besides, I have a quote by him, too, but the whole line is too long to fit in my sig with the othre quotes :-/...

$tilettø May 18, 2001 09:48 AM

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 [img]http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Wild Angel May 18, 2001 11:06 PM
