Dialog fonts are not working, journal is fine

I've made the bigger fonts as a separate tool, try using this. Extract it in your torment folder and run the executable like all the other mods.

Yes, it works well
Thank you very much for your help.

Just out of curiosity, Bart, you didn't install the Dialog Font tweak from my tweak pack, did you?

I think I'm just gonna deprecate that for my next version, since Ghostdog handles it so much better.

Hello Qwinn,
I don´t know exactly what you mean because of my not perfect english.
But if you mean the "Use Floating Text Font Globally", I haven´t installed this because of a instruction I found.
Thank you for your good mods! Very good work!

Bart

Yes, that's the tweak I was referring to, and ok, good, glad it wasn't the cause of this problem.

And thanks for the kind words

Glad to know it worked, Bart. Honestly, I can find no reason why the fonts installation failed in the first place. The tool does exactly the same thing, with the sole difference of being a separate installation. It may have something to do with weidu borking at some rare instances, especially when the mod does a lot of stuff together


As for the "use floating text globally" option in the tweak pack, yeah, it may be a good idea to cut it. If you install it after my UI it could produce some strange results. Qwinn, from what I understand you're simply copying and renaming the TRMTFONT.BAM to FONTDLG.BAM ? Then, if my fonts are also installed the result will be to have all UI buttons and item descriptions using the floating text font. Journal and dialog windows should still be using the new bigger fonts.

I had a similar problem as the previous posters, but mine was also a bit tricker. Basically, I could either have all the elements of the new UI except the larger dialogue font (journal and floating text was fine) OR I could have larger dialogue font but no other element of the new UI (that is, the inventory screen etc. was in the upper left corner, the dialogue box was small, but now had big font writing in it, etc.). So, I think that the problem may be that somewhere, the mod is installing all elements while uninstalling the dialogue font, and vice versa. I hope that this info can help you find the problem.

That said, your solution with the separate font tool worked like a charm. It makes a huge difference to the game. Thank you very much for providing it!

I don't know if this forum is active anymore or not, but Ghostdog, if you're there, I have the same problem.

Everything runs smoothly, patches and all, and every type of text in the game adapts to my the 80% font which I've chosen...except for the dialogue.
I've double-checked, and the Font_chu_patch.tph is indeed inte the TPH folder. 
I've also tried reinstalling the 80% fonts, and then going to GhostDog's PST UI\Version 2.1-new\GhostDog's-PST-UI\Fonts\iso-8859-1\Size16 to copy the two files within to the override folder, but to no avail. 

 

It would be great if you could help me out, I have been dying to try out this game!
Thanks!

Nevermind, I solved it!

How did you solve it?

Came to here with Google search... solved my fonts issue! HUGE thanks! 

Same for me. Thanks a lot, ghostdog.

Also having the same problem with the fonts. But the bigger fonts tool fixed this.
