Miniplicity

Whoa things are different here. What happened to all the posts? I think I recall a move but yeah I guess this is the first topic ever made in this forum since then. Wowzers trousers.

Anyways! Have a font.

Information:

Name: Miniplicity
Variants: 9
Type: SmallFont
Format: FON2
Replaces: N/A
Size: 9px
Paletted: Doom (indices 0 and 247 swapped)
Lower-cases: No
Individual glyphs/character maps included: Yes
Standard GFX included: N/A

Credits:
Submitted: Jimmy
Author: Jimmy / Agent Spork
Original font: Ultimate Simplicity's bigfont
Idea Base: Inspired by Valiant which extensively uses the Ultimate Simplicity bigfont.

Description: A grey smallfont, based on the large font first featured (to my knowledge) in Ultimate Simplicity by Agent Spork. Apparently the font is not his own, but he still gets a credit for bringing a great-looking font to the Doom community. Comes in 9 variants:

• Normal
• Normal, white
• Normal, "Valiant green"
• Normal + 1px kerning
• Normal, white + 1px kerning
• Normal, "Valiant green" + 1px kerning
• Shadowed
• Shadowed, white
• Shadowed, "Valiant green" (for use with the megawad "Valiant" by skillsaw)

Download link has 2 http on it, can't download the file

Anyway maaaaany thanks for this new font jimmy! :cool:

[EDIT]: Copying the URL did the trick, obviously.

I was a bit bumfuzzled as to why that wasn't working.

Thanks and you're welcome!

I gave in and added a green shadowed variant. Redownload!

The INFO lump needs updating. There are 9 variants but the description only mentions 6.

The INFO is up to date in the pk3.

Edited my first post to change the two 6s to 9s.

I was referring to the variants listing. There are only six variants in the list.

Ack, sorry. Fixed.

I'm curious for some opinions on the kerned variants, by the way. Is the space character wide enough? Usually I widen the space character by a pixel for kerned fonts, but I haven't done that here as I didn't feel I needed to, but now it's gnawing at me.

Added.

I think it's fine as it is.
