Weird Problem

[CKJohn]

I searched the forums but didn't find any refereance to this problem. When I start the server, I get this Message:

Uncaught exception in main (): Font "arial" does not support style "regular".

I am using Verson 1.15.16 of the server. Both were downlaoded tonight.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

In case its needed, I'm running Windows XP home. I did download the .net fram as well


Thanks

Make sure you have arial font on your system, I know arial is a defualt font and regular is a default setting for the font. I wonder if yours is corrupted.

[CKJohn]

ok that kinda confuses me. Does that mean I need to get a copy of the arial file and replace mine?

or does that mean I need to change my font to Arial?

I did notice about 5 months ago that my fonts screwed up and it was hard to read small letters in EQ unless I have chatfontsize 5.

How do I change my font?

[MQSEQ2]

That's what it sounds like. You can search on your WinXP CD for arial.* and if it has a .ttf all you need to do is copy it into the Font directory in the C:\Windows\Fonts dir.

If you can't find it let me know and I can put the font file on the site.

I dont' have my windows CD anymore so if you could put it up that would be awesome

Here is the Arial.tff zip file.

Gah, that didn't work

I'm stumped

[MQSEQ2]

You copied the file into the C:\Windows\Fonts directory?

If so and it still doesnt work then you may have to reinstall the OS but that should only be done as the last resort.

[CKJohn]

The file was fucked.

I went back and deleted it then installed your copy and it booted up.

Thanks much for the help man.
