Font problem

hi i hope someone could help me.Whenever i try to change the text in the text object it just reverts back to the default font when i try to run the game.I chose the veranda font which is a default windows font but it just goes back to default every time.It shows the change in the editor though but that's as far as it will go.

Did you set it up as a DirectX game, or as an application? I've seen that before in applications, but never in a game.

A DirectX game which is funny cause it should only do this when it's created as an application.

Here is the pic of the problem.Note: In the editor it shows the font but in the game it shows the default font.Im using v99.92 with no Events that are running.

Just tried it.

Same problem here on 0.99.92

Might try changing the original text as well. Guess its possible its hanging from there.

Edit:

Confirmed, change the original text.

How do i change the original text?

when i run the cap as an apllication without directX then the font shows in the application window.This sux bigtime!!.im going back to v99.62

The font is way too unstable for me, also I cannot make it show on the foreground either, whenever I try to put it on front it stay's in the back so I have to delete any foreground objects in front of it.

This probably isn't very helpful, but you can either use the sprite font plugin or pre-render your text as a .png and create a tiled background (instead of a sprite - which if I understand correctly will use more vram).

It's dirty, but it gets around the font/text issues until the devs have had time to iron out the bugs in Construct.

The text object plugin is very undirectXy anyway (there are other issues I believe). You'll be better off using SpriteFont
