I recently downloaded the rtps for xp and vx so I could play more games.
But when I downloaded one and played it the font wasn't appearing. Is this a problem with the game or with me (I don't want to mention it on the game page if its a problem on my end.)




The game I'm trying to play:

Never mind. I had to go and download some font. I hate when you need to do stuff like this just to make a game work. People should have a link on there game page or include stuff like this in their file (If not included in the RTP.)

Edit:

Hey, what's up with the lag and the triple posting!

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

VX and Ace include the ability to package fonts with your game when creating the installer. Some people don't realize that not everyone has the fonts they're using though, or they just don't care about making it easy for people to play their game. Or they're making an RMXP game and don't know how to create their own installer that includes the font. This is a problem with the game, not with you, and you should bring it to the developer's attention.
The packager won't do it for VX/Ace (e: barring the rtp font which afaik gets added to your game's font folder), they just support pulling fonts from a 'Fonts' folder in the root folder of said game which is what everybody should do because it skips a pile of easy to avoid problems.
