Sprite Font Generator - v3

It crash when set large amount of utf8 characters (>3500), can you fix it?

It sounds like you are running out of memory. That's just too many characters. Even if I could fix it, the file produced would be so large, Construct probably won't accept it, and even if it did, the browser won't. I just had a case the other day where the browser crashed because a file was over the 2400x2400 limit.

You'll probably have to use WebFonts.

Because I use chinese font, for 3500 chinese characters, I can put it in a 1024 x 1024 texture using photoshop,

but maybe you can add an option to set the output texture size like bmfont. and it would be good that show a warning without crash.

Thank you in advance.

If you can post the character-set for me, I can have a look.

Thank you !

The charset is here:

And for font you can use:

Now I try to split it in to every 512 character and it work, but I need to combine them and test.

Found the issue. Still working on a fix.

V3.2 available. It can handle just under 5000 characters now, by default. Then it runs into a Windows limit, as commented on, on the first page.

Thank you! It works now.

Perfect 10/10, parabems

Hi

I appreciate this is an old thread, but the activity is recent.....

I am having trouble with using european characters in my sprite fonts.

I need to use the extended ascii set with these characters;-

ÁÀÂÃÄÉÈÊËÍÎÏÓÔÕŒÙÚÛÑÜŸáàâãäéèêëíîïóôõœñùúûüÿ¿¡ç

But when i alter the character set in Give me your fonts, i get random text written to the sprite font despite the debugger showing the correct value for the word.

Can you give any advice, does the character set have to be a certain order or something ?

(I only need to cover English, French Spanish and Portugese.)

For example, i could not use this font ;-

fonts101.com/fonts/view/Uncategorized/51630/NewsGothicSmc

It still gave garbled text.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks

Jeremy

As I said, I tried that font and it is fine. You'll need to post something I can look at. Bundle the three output files and if you have a demo project, that too.

Ok, thanks.

I am just trying to create a demo of the problem in a fresh project.

A basic example does work, so i am now looking into my project since the words are created based on events so there could be problems in the way i am instantiating the sprite font.

You got it working so it must be a problem elsewhere, that does help me quite alot.

Thanks again.
