Okay, I’m using windows tileset latest experimental.

I edited my FONTDATA file to look like that:  
{  
“fontblending”: false,  
“fontwidth”: 16,  
“fontheight”: 16,  
“fontsize”: 16,  
“typeface”: “whitrabt”,  
“map\_fontwidth”: 16,  
“map\_fontheight”: 16,  
“map\_fontsize”: 16,  
“map\_typeface”: “whitrabt”,  
“overmap\_fontwidth”: 16,  
“overmap\_fontheight”: 16,  
“overmap\_fontsize”: 16,  
“overmap\_typeface”: “whitrabt”  
}

whitrab.ttf is put into font folder and the font itself is installed in Windows. What am I missing? Thу game still doesn’t show any changes.  
The font has been taken from this link: [http://www.squaregear.net/fonts/whitrabt.shtml](http://www.squaregear.net/fonts/whitrabt.shtml)

You need to add the font to the fonts json

Now THAT worked. Thank you!

I’d recommend this font to anyone, that looks great and authentic.
