#16053 new defect

DGDS: Rise: Font file 7X8.FNT missing

Reported by: jester-xbmc Owned by:
Priority: low Component: Engine: DGDS
Version: Keywords:
Cc: Game: Rise of the Dragon

Description

It seems the 7X8 font file is either not extracted or otherwise missing.

I'm still trying to find out if this just a warning or if this font is actually used in game and is now causing display issues.

Note:
This is only for Rise of the Dragon EGA version, VGA doesn't have this warning

You're correct this font is not included in the EGA version, but I'm not sure it's ever used - I added the code to load it in case.

Are you seeing any display issue you think might be caused by this?

I will try and fit a full play-though in to see if I spot something and report back

or if others want something to do for the weekend in glorious EGA, feel free to report in :)
