Screen fonts in SCREEN 0

[a740g]

ha what a coincidence i've been working on screen 0 font editor all morning and afternoon.

i modified the Shmup game with few special characters i edited cannon and 2 sides of landing gear

attached is game, still working on naming system for editor


you need charset.h in same folder as qb64

Code: (Select All)

extern uint8 charset8x8[256][8][8];
extern uint8 charset8x16[256][16][8];

void Charset_8x16 (ptrszint offset){
memcpy(charset8x16,(void*)offset,sizeof(charset8x16));
}

void Charset_8x8 (ptrszint offset){
memcpy(charset8x8,(void*)offset,sizeof(charset8x8));
}

I would not recommend this at all. This stuff is not portable and assumes the existence of some QB64 undocumented internals which can change in the future.

I would rather suggest doing what @SMcNeill said or if you are willing to wait, then we may have a way of loading PSF fonts (soonish).
