Introduction
QFONT files are NSX scripts that holds parameters for NetherMenu font draw module.
Example of .QFONT file contents:
[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
Structure
[qfont] should be the first groups of file, it sets font drawer and face group.
| Key pair | Description |
|---|---|
| type=x | Type of font drawer, each of it has it's advantages and disadvantages:
Possible values:
|
| 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. |
Freetype font face group
Attributes of font face for freetype font renderer.
| VKey pairlue | Description |
|---|---|
| file=path | Path to .OTF/.TTF font file. Could be relative to respath (if begins with ./) or absolute (from gamedir root). |
| slot=slotname | Engine font slot. Used to replace fontmaps that was already initialized.

| r_shadowblur=strength | Outline shadow blur. |
| r_shadowofs=x y z | Outline shadow offset. X and Y applied during rendering. Z is applied during blur. |
| r_charcushion=x | Characters vertical offset in percents (1 - 100%, 0.1 - 10%). |
| r_charscale=x | Characters uniform scale. |
Glyph font face group
Attributes of font face for glyph font renderer.
| Key pair | Description |
|---|---|
| respath=path | Absolute path that overrides default font resources path. |
| glyph=variable | Value is a string of: picture kern left right codes code1 code2 codeX. Kern parmeter is optional. One pic may have many ASCII codes. |
