Using the Zegoe font

shutout5591 · 08-21-2008, 04:27 PM

I obtained the Zegoe font, the default UI font for the Zune, and I was wondering how to include it in my game.

heres the download:
Zegoe UI - eSnips, share anything

I installed them on my system via control pannel, made a sprite font, but it wont compile because I need to reference the file via name in the zegoe.spriteFont xml file. I tried "Zegoe UI", "Zegoe UI - U", i tried everything.

Does anybody know whats the proper reference for it?

thank you!

Open up Word and see what name it comes up as. That's the name you need to specify.

Make sure you use RIG or precompile the font XNB, as users are unlikely to have it installed (most users already have Segoe UI, yet see what problems it nevertheless causes people).

i opened word, and copied and pasted it. Can you try it for me, and let me know what u did to get it to work? Thx!

Does anybody know how to get this font on the zune???

I tried everything I can think of, no luck. For now ill just use Segoe and hope nobody can tell the difference...
