How do you like the new font? And no, you are NOT fighting alongside the rebel army here.

In all seriousness, that's a pretty strange configuration for a floor. Is there a reason behind that, for example, is the building symmetrically shaped and this is just the right hand corner?

You see, this is the kind of minute detailing that not many people (outside of myself) are crazy enough to care about.
I take great joy in knowing that someone notices stuff like that, I took particular care in how I designed it.

That floor isn't just some random mish-mish, it's a particular design that's unique to the culture of the Judec Empire in the setting. The proto-industrial, old, disorganized design of the ancient Empire is intended to clash with the organized, newer, 'modern' Alliance that the player visits later.
You know, sometimes gam devs just get it so right.

Oh man, using the same face sets I'm using :/ Looks great nonetheless.

This looks great, except the sprites are... all over the place in terms of alignment. I think Cy- ahem, Rainor, is perhaps moved forward because he's talking, but the rest are clearly all over the place on the charset. Gotta lock down those deets brah.

Some bangarang edits, though.

Good eye! Yes, you're right, the alignments aren't even. Yeah, I'm fixing the sprite alignment thing; it won't be in the final product.
I gave him the fonts.. he has them at the wrong size, i already told him the size for the font's in private message.
It should be 22.
Not sure what size he has them at, but i don't think it's the right size.
Here is a screen shot showing how they should look.

And here is how the fonts for the menu should look.

And those are the menu fonts, they're supposed to be set at 18.
So Message font should be FF4Talk font size 22, and menu is FF4 Menu font size 18.
It's 2 different fonts.
Sorry not trying to hijack, just trying to further help him out.
I offered the fonts and hoped he would have an easier time using them and getting them the right size, plus they're a GBA Final Fantasy font, i figured they would fit better in his game.
Maybe I don't have them at the 'right' size, but I'm alright with that for now; they look pretty damn sexy.
I'm with MarkusT on this: it's a bit too small to read. If it was possible to let players increase the size for a few pixels it would be great if they need to (I know I need as I'm like sitting on screen when playing games ;P ), but I'm not sure if there are RMVXAce scripts which can do so.
I disagree, man, I don't think it's too small. It's about the same standard size as many other RPG fonts; you guys need reading glasses!
The only issue with the change that I can see is that in your earlier blog post, the font was crisper. It seems to be blurred a little at the edges now.

EDIT: To clarify, it's not impossible to read or anything, but I think that it could end up causing problems when mixed with that grey background- especially if people are using shitty monitors to play it or something, or just have bad vision.
It's always looked blurred to me, which makes it look odd in a game that's supposed to look low rez.
The only reason i had offered them to him is because of the font he had being set in a way that it blurred like it's doing now, i THOUGHT he was going to use the font i supplied to fix the look he had before.
Had i known he would not even bother to set them to the right size, i would not have even bothered to share them with him.
Sorry if that's harsh man, but i offered my assistance to you because your earlier shots were doing the same thing with text, and people pointed it out, so i offered the font and told you what size to set them at to get rid of that blurry look, the game is meant to have this.. low rez effect.. like it's being made in RM200 or 2003, right? Then why set the fonts and so forth so it ends up looking off like that?
And you have not even mention i helped supply the fonts yet...
Again.. sorry if that's harsh.. not trying be a dick..
I'm just saying.
(god.. i sound like those idiots on jersy shore.."sorry not trying to offend, it's a jersy thing" lol >_<)
@MarkusT- I think it largely looks fine. I don't notice any blur, but even then, like I mentioned, I'm still tinkering on it to make it better, and I did state that this isn't the final, final product. Yes, you offered me the fonts and the tips, and I took some of your advice, but why should I feel obligated to do everything to the letter that you advised me to do? That's certainly not fair.

Oh, I most definitely credited you for the fonts, namely in the blog post where I showcased the new fonts! Did you miss it?

I do prefer Markus' text, but I think Feld's is great too. Not too small or blurry for me.

Yeah i missed it man.. did not see it.
But thankyou~ Though in all honesty it's an actual font by squareenix, i just did the conversion making it work for Ace and even RMXP.
I wanna convert some other fonts from other old SNES games, i just dunno which fonts i wanna do exactly yet.
Your work is pretty awesome. I have a website laying around with a bunch of fonts from old games that have yet to be converted into the standard font format. If you're interested, I can send that link to you when I'm on my laptop.
That'd be awesome!
For me it's not too hard to do though, i get em done rather quickly.
I know for sure i been considering the old Enix font they used to use in like.. Act Raiser and soul blazer and so forth.
Fonts like these should always be used as SFonts if you ask me.
I don't think they are blurry enough to be in any way hard to read, but pixel perfection is the name of the game and I will not let it go ever.
