Hey, Heres my code for loading a windows font HFONT hFont; m_base = glGenLists(96); hFont = CreateFont(fontSize, // font size 0, 0, 0, FW_LIGHT, // font weight FALSE, // Italic FALSE, // Underline FALSE, // Strikethrough ANSI_CHARSET, // character set OUT_TT_PRECIS, // ouput precision CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS, // clipping precision ANTIALIASED_QUALITY, // output quality FF_DONTCARE | DEFAULT_PITCH, // family and pitch fontName); // font name if(!hFont) { Engine.logFile.Output("Could not load font - %s", fontName); return; } else { Engine.logFile.Output("Font loaded successfully - %s", fontName); } SelectObject(hDC, hFont); wglUseFontBitmaps(hDC, 32, 96, m_base); I was wondering if this looks for the file in the window/font directory automatically. Basically I want to store the .ttf file in my game folders so i can distribute it with my game for use anywhere. Is this possible??
