NSX scripts that holds parameters for NetherMenu font draw module.

Example QFONT file:

[qfont]
type=FT
face=default
brightness=0.8
width=1.2

[default]
file=./big.ttf
sizes=38
glyphs=abcdefghijklmnopqrttuvwxyz0123456789
r_shadow=0.8
r_shadowblur=1
r_shadowofs=0 0.5 0.5

[edit] Structure

Key pair Description
[qfont] Should be the first groups of file.
type=x Type of font drawer, each of it has it's advantages and disadvantages:

Possible values:

  • FT - Darkplaces vector fonts using freetype library
  • ASCII - Quake ascii conchars (256 chars on a 16*16 table)
  • GLYPH - QuakeC glyph font renderer (each char is separate picture)
face=string Font face. For freetype and glyph font renderers this is name of group. For Ascii it's a path to conchars texture.
brightness=value Floating point value of brightness scale. 1 is nothing, 0.1 is 10% etc.
scale=x y Two floating point values storing horizontal and vertical scale of font chars.
width=x X component of scale.
height=y Y component of scale.
respath=path Path to font resources. Could be relative (if begins with ./) or absolute (from gamedir). Default is subfolder named as font file (i.e if font file is gfx/myfont.qfont, it's default resources directory will be gfx/myfont/).
