Title: Lemmings Font?
Post by: Mr Kiwi on June 05, 2009, 05:51:42 AM
Does one exist?
If so, does anyone mind sharing a copy?

I don't know if this will come up with anything, but try this just in case: Google Search

Hrm...  Google images, maybe?

EDIT:  NEVER MIND.

Try making a level in Lemmix, calling it abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz, then make one called ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ.  Go to the level introduction screen on Customized Lemmings and take a screenshot.  And there you have it!  Well, after a long time of editing it.  Faster than searching for years, though.

If you can find a decent quality image with the font you need, you should try "What the font?" - it's a great site to identify fonts... if it doesn't show up on there, it's probably a custom made font.

I might be able to extract the ones from DOS Lemmings, but it's been such a long while since I've done this sort of thing......

And they would only be bitmaps, so if you're looking for scalable fonts (eg. looks good at a wide range of sizes), I don't have anything.

I've seen bitmaps of the fonts, but I don't think I have them anymore.

I have the font from the pre/post-level screens.  I dunno where this came from but it was sitting on my hard drive with some other sprite sheets.  Looks like some of the letters are cut off, though.

I uploaded the purple font to my website. You can download it from there:

Awesome. Now, might anybody carry the Amiga font which is taller?

Um...  might Lemmini have used a similar/the same font?

Yeah, you can find it in the "misc" directory of Lemmini

My keyboard has a £ sign rather than a # sign for my shift 3, but I'll have another look at the game to see what the screen comes up with when my shift 3 is hit, and also for my shift 2 I have inverted commas instead of @.

I think you have to do it yourself I'm afraid. ;)

Yes! That's right! Giga didn't use a "q" in his sentence.

Anyway, I tried to press the shift 2 and shift 3 keys on the code selection but nothing has happened.

Probably because they aren't valid letters for a code.  Try making a custom level with the characters in the title or something-- if they can't be used then they must not be in the font.

I have a  level with all sorts of symbols, and the only symbol that doesn't show up on the level display is the £ symbol (I don't think any user would want to put that £ sign in any level whatsoever, so what's the point anyway?)

Another addition to this, from guess which game?

Somehow I got into a state where I can't modify the previous post, or even view it when log in as myself......
