Hey guys,

Didn't wanna fill the paint topic with stuff that isn't a release..

Any chance we can skin the protections? can these be included in the template?

Also, can you please tell us how to install custom fonts?

Thanks  :D

there is an option on the in-game menu for different fonts. im sure they can be changed, its just figuring out what folders to make and what kind of files to put in them

Ive tried loads of combos, cant get em to show up..  You can extract the numbers from the bike pkz in the mx bikes root

But I did notice that it only shows rider font options in the bike menu.. Maybe you can only change rider font atm

EDIT: Look in the bikes folder, its called plate.tga    have fun!

hmm, cant really seem to do anything with it without it looking messed up. i managed to simply shorten the text height resulting in better front plate placement but thats about it. hopefully one of you guys will figure it out.

If you extract the rider.pkz , there's a FONT folder.
May be we can do something with that.

You have to you're own full set of fonts. All the numbers and all the letters. He mentioned how to do this in another thread. I'll try to find it real fast.

Where did you go tone? lol

I tried to find it, I'm sure I saw how to do it a while back but cant find the post either...

Thanks Dub. I'm at work and didn't have enough time.

any luck with fonts yet? I've followed the folder branching from the link you posted gdub. tried a bunch of different name structures and file formats. I'm obviously missing something obvious.

jbrandmx85

From the way I understand, its just like numbers in mxsim, you have to make them. You cant just add a font file.

MXK_cdub85

Correct, that's what piboso described. I tried .tga and .bmp with various naming options. I even unpacked the rider.pkz, found the default font and named it just like that. It still isn't showing up. There's a stepim missing somewhere.
