Looks cool wish I new somebody else with a working zune

[scorpio89mt2]

yeah, I agree, I don't know too many people with Zunes, so its not the most useful thing. Luckily my mom and my brother and his friend have Zunes I could test this on. Also, I do realize the range isn't too great, but if you're in school or something and can listen to music... not that I would recommend something like that

Ohh wow looking awesome!!!

However some problems... I extract the fonts but I get this message saying that the fonts could not be found...

"The font family "Kootenay" could not be found. Please ensure the requested font is installed, and is a TrueType or OpenTypefont"

That's the error that I get.... =[

Double click on the error..then highlight the font and change it to EX: Tahoma.

had lots of problems so far.
just to let you know what they are:

1.)had to replace all the fonts with ones i have in the fonts folder because they had errors on deploy.

2.)after i got this sorted out, on the zune load screen where the zune logo lights up it froze up after the third sequence.

3.)after it finally went through this, i got a really weird error. the XNA connect screen comes up when my zune isnt even connected to my computer..no cables plugged in or anything.

I havent made it into the app yet after trying 10+ times.

maybe i'm just doing something wrong..? is this working for everyone else?

[dan_1986]

Not working for me either

for the first 1st step you have to change <FontName>the middle part to Arial<FontName> and it should work

This Zune Im sounds promising, although I'm considering waiting until a slightly less buggy version.

Your not supposed to just extract the font, you have to install them onto your computer too.

[jackluo923]

May I include this application in the Zuneboards Games package once the release is stable?

Steps:
1) Download the RedistributableTTFs.zip from the first post
2) Extract files from said zip file
3) Open Control Panel
4) Set it to classic view if you are in Vista
5) Find the Fonts icon in the control panel
6) Select all fonts that you have extracted earlier
7) Drag said fonts onto the Fonts icon in the Control Panel
8) Wait until installation is done
9) Restart Visual Studio 2008

Have you turned your wireless on, and made sure the wireless icon is showing before entering the game?
