Hi, thanks for this, likely to be very useful for larger screens. A couple of comments and questions:

Hi.

Hi, the Apache Licence for the fonts (Noto Sans and Open Sans) should be fine, there's no problem distributing these alongside the (GPL) main program. The problem with Lucida Sans is the commercial license.

Ok, does the font itself (and its license) need to be part of BC5 since Irrlicht is using just rendered bitmaps of these fonts?
