Ultima VIII - Pentagram font

Hi,

The only thing that has ever prevented me from enjoying Ultima VIII is the game font, which is very uncomfortable to read. Now, did I read it wrong or Pentagram allows you to change the game default font with "tff=yes" ?

I've tried that option and saw no change in that ugly game font, no hints in the pstdout logs, so I wonder if I am doing something wrong or if I misunderstood what I read completely. It's the GOG version of Pagan, btw.

Thanks!

Hmm, let me check what is needed but first thing you need to pay attention to is that you edit the correct config. See http://pentagram.sourceforge.net/docs.php#Configuration

D'oh!

It's supposed to be "ttf=yes" not "tff=yes"...
Small but ages old error in our install script for Windows...
