I hate it....  Get's on my nerves.  We need change now.

Thanks for all your hard work but no thanks, as it is a thankless job.  ;)  :evil:

I had more fun testing it, than you did with my test results.  So ha!   ;D
 
Microsoft security essential found a trojan in FFVIIBarCorrectionPatch.exe in version 2.07, but I think is a false positive :).
sl1982 if you want I can translate my windows interface in english to ad it in Avalanche project :).
 
It is a false positive...
make sure you disable antivirus while installing the patch (you will prob have to run installer again to correct the limit bars).

@sl1982, You will probably have to use the 300KB version of that patch I have you.

I mean my semi-transparent italian battle interface:

Ah, I am planning on doing all those at some point. If you could get me a copy of your menu lgp I can add italian to the list.
 
I personally like a lot the two screen of the original font upscaled that NCS posted. It's way closer to the original than the font currently being used. I think it's what basically the font should have been since the start, a polished and upscaled version of the original one. The letters width, shadowing, looks and spacing are just spot on. Would be awesome to see NCS effort continued and perhaps, offered as an alternative in the future to the current font. Great job NCS!
 
If that is what people wish maybe you can convince NCS to do it. I do not plan on redoing the font a third time. People do not realize how much time it takes to do this.
 
I personally have no qualms with the current font. As it is, it works quite nice for an upscaled/HD version of the game. More importantly, even if this project wasn't about bringing the PC version up to today's standards, the text is now much clearer/cleaner than it's ever been.

You have got to be kidding me.  It is jagged and it looks like it has a filter applied to it.  The one currently in use IS what the original uses (minus a slight chop they did), and it looks smooth and professional.

Anyway sl1982 has spoken.   As always, anyone is welcome to create their own.  8-)

Really? I was under the impression that: was new....
 
As I explained before, the PSX version of the game uses a slightly modified form of the font "Verdana". The PC version was made seemingly not knowing this, so they made an upscaled version of the PSX game's font.

The new font is Verdana, same as the PSX version, just clearer. While a font based on the PC version would be kickass, it makes perfect sense to use the same font that was originally used in the game to begin with.

It is? But I just took it after installing GUI v2.0.7. Or am I missing something here (it's been a long day).
 
Yeah, actually, I don't think my menu changed when I installed the latest GUI, I just didn't say anything because I thought I was going crazy.
 
Hmm. Well take a look at your config file and see if mod_path = avalanche is in there.
 
I do, there are many pages of redundant pic's and I appreciate all your efforts in making them look there best.

NCS fonts look amazing, a couple of letter spacing issues (I see some dots).
