Thaumcraft Text Too Big #124

Closed AngelKairi closed 8 years ago

AngelKairi commented 8 years ago

In the recent texture pack update, the Thaumonomicon text is just.. a little too big. The previous update had readable fonts.

spannerman79 commented 8 years ago

Personally I think that the font should be moved into a separate texture pack - like the 64x one.

I rather unicode (with a unicode mod i found to fix unicode text) which makes text very readable

ArfourFoulkesayke commented 8 years ago

I support what spannerman79 said. I always remove the font for this very reason.

Oddface commented 8 years ago

Hm, I thought we had fixed this. https://github.com/John-Smith-Modded/JSTR-1.7.x/issues/51

spannerman79 commented 8 years ago

What many users do, (including myself) use a mod like Unicode Font Fixer to clean up the derpy way that minecraft deals with fonts.

Personally I am quite use to Unicode font (linux user) even though language wise I have no need for unicode specific font. To me it's cleaner and easier to read. Plus many other mods (OpenComputers uses unicode font for the screen displays) are starting to code/accept unicode as a default for many users.

To be blunt I was able to remove the font ( outlined here https://github.com/John-Smith-Modded/JSTR-1.7.x/issues/51#issuecomment-71331495 ) but whatever was done afterwards the ability to use unicode has been screwed up.

This isn't a mod issue - remove this resource pack and there is no issue, add this resource pack and the issue is clearly visible.

AngelKairi commented 8 years ago

But. I don't use that unicode font fixer. (And this thing is like 2 months old, prob fixed by now)

GirmSquirrel1 commented 8 years ago

So as of May 8th has there been any attempts at either having a separate resource pack for just text or just a patch for johnsmith text information? I am a user of both thaumcraft and botania which have this same problem? Ultimately I really enjoy this resource pack but being unable to read information doesn't help.

Oddface commented 8 years ago

Yeah, this issue just keeps popping up. Maybe there will be a day when the Minecraft font system doesn't suck, but until then I say we should just change to a simpler font. Maybe just an upscale of the default font like in the Faithful pack.

Oddface commented 8 years ago

Does anyone have this issue with the newest release? The game needs to be restarted after applying the pack, but after that the books should be readable with the John Smith font. 2016-05-26_12 01 16 👏

Looks like it has been fixed. Closing this for now.
