Trouble using different fonts

[Guest]

I've put the fonts into the game directory, and I've tried using two methods to display fonts. First I tried to just replace the font for one bit of dialogue in the game (For one short conversation, the text needs to be displayed in Japanese), but I got an error. (More below). I also tried this method to replace the font for the whole game in hopes it would give the game Japanese text support, but that also gave me an error like this:

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an exception occured while executing your Ren'Py
script.

Exception: Could not find font: (u'AppleMyungjo.ttf', 22, False, False, False)

Ren'Py Version: Ren'Py 6.9.3c

This is the area that is giving me trouble: (when I remove it, the game works fine)

Code: Select all

        
    label japan:
        sf "{font=AppleMyungjo.ttf}すばらしい！{/font} "
        sf "Sou desu ka? Subarashi desuwa! Anata wa koukangakusei desu ka?"
        menu:
            "Sou da! Demo... nihon wa yoi desu!  Thorne-san ha tensai desu!":
                show sf happy at right
                sf "Ara, ma!  Arigato gozaimasu!"
                sf "You're too kind.  That's pretty much all the Japanese I know."
                show sf at right
                sf "I'm more well-versed in the Romantic languages, myself."
                sf "French, Italian, and Spanish, mostly."
                sf "Of course, knowing Dutch and English makes German easy to understand, too..."
                "Damn, this girl knows too many languages for her own good."
            "Sore ga himitsu desu!":
                sf "Honto ni?  Sore wa chotti ni kyoumibukai desu wa...."
            "Er... kawaii, sushi... bishoujou baka!":
                show sf mad at right
                sf "Impressive, indeed."
            "Haha, jsut kidding, I'm just a wannabe weeaboo who WISHES they were Japanese.":
               show sf mad at right
               sf "...Oh."
               

I really want the Japanese text to display IN Japanese, but so far the only solution has been to give up and write it in romanji.

Oops. I thought I was logged in.

First I tried to just replace the font for one bit of dialogue in the game (For one short conversation, the text needs to be displayed in Japanese), but I got an error.

I copied the code and it worked perfectly. I think you either didn't name the file correctly or you misplaced the ttf.

I put it both in the main folder for the game, and also in the folder called "game."

And I copy-pasted the font name from the file, just to make sure I spelled it right. Would using a mac have anything to do with it?

Well, I never used a mac before so I can't say.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
