Hi guys, I have notice that custom font does not seem to work with GG at this point in time. So I have found away round it for now.

Below are all the font sizes in GG that I can find and are located in the fontbank here [ \Steam\SteamApps\common\Game Guru\Files\fontbank\ ].

Now unless your going to make a multiplayer game I would custom the FPSCR-Font-36px-Multiplayer.png and FPSCR-Font-36px-Multiplayer-Subimages.fnt files to suit your needs. Make a back up of these two files.

You will need this little app Bitmap Font Creator to make a new font. Save the images using this app as the same file names for multiplayer font above. Direct download - BMFC_v1.0a(201207121152).zip

When you need to use this font in your level just use the font size 6 and it should work. This font size is 36px the same as font size 3.

GG font list

Font Size 1 and loading test level information uses 24px - FPSCR-Font-24px
Font Size 2 uses 12px - FPSCR-Font-12px
Font Size 3 and prompt uses 36px - FPSCR-Font-36px
Font Size 4 uses 40px - FPSCR-Font-40px
Font Size 5 uses 72px - FPSCR-Font-72px
Font Size 6 uses 36px - FPSCR-Font-36px-Multiplayer
Font Size 7 uses 25px - FPSCR-Font-25px

You can also set your prompt size to 6 by using this command in lua PromptTextSize(6) -- Custom font [ FPSCR-Font-36px-Multiplayer ]

lua text commands



I hope this helps a little.

Hi granada, there is now a direct download link in the above main post. It should work as I have tested several times.
