Title: [MM8BDM-v3b] Text spacing fix
Post by: Russel on February 28, 2014, 12:35:02 AM
So I'm sure you are all aware of the weird text spacing that appeared in 8BDM-v3b. A long while ago, I learned this was a very idiotic oversight on my part, and fixed the issue on my end. I decided to release a mod that would basically allow others to do the same, basically apologizing for my screw up.

Download the text fix here! (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/ynted5232tw9vqz/v3b-fontfix.wad?dl=1&token_hash=AAEAVrbU7dxW--H1R2ox40moOHxjPopi-jQFx9HMbtuFug)

This isn't a simple drop and go wad, though. You must place the wad in your 8BDM pk3 for it to work. [Or you could just run it every time you run the game...but it would get old.]

You literally just have to open the 8BDM pk3 in SLADE or SLumpEd and place the wad in the root folder.

This has been implemented in v4, but in a more elegant way.

Again, I apologize for this screw up, I hope this at least partially makes up for it.

Hm... Could you just up one screenshot contrasting the before patch and after patch?

...All it does is remove the spaces between the lines that showed up when v3b came out. There isn't really anything to show.

If you require further explanation, there was a double-space between lines in the chat since v3b came out. Text would show up as

Code: [Select]
Lego: Blah

Lego: Blah

Lego: Blah

instead of

Code: [Select]
Lego: Blah
Lego: Blah
Lego: Blah

And this patch fixes that.

But I thought it was a positive new feature...?

Personally the text spacing never bothered me too much. unlike beed infact I thought spacing made reading the comments of others online a bit easier to read.
