Is ther a font patch for RPG Maker 2003? I recently made a demo for my game that I only released to some people so they could test it. I set the in game font to MS Mincho, and on my screen it looks like a pixelated Times New Roman, which is readable and looks fine. But one of my testers said that they are having the problem where the letters are like this: He l l oth ere, wh at is yo u' re n ame? problem. and I have an FMV sequence in my game that he seems to have problems with. The first FMV runs fine, that comes up after the little intro and bit of gameplay. But the next FMV in the game, as soon as its about to start it instantly closes the game and says "No such interface supported." What's the problem?

1) Just give them the MS Mincho font from your computers font folder. C:\Windows\Fonts\
2) As a wild guess I would say the movie file in question is either using a funny codec or its not an avi/mpg file. Try re-encoding it.
-
I noticed the first FMV doesn't say what the bit rate is. The Second and Third FMV both say they are "1411 kbps" and the first one just doesn't say. I did have to take the second and third FMV into Sony Vegas 8 for some editing. Unlike the first one. Maybe that's why...
-
I fixed the codec... Now when he runs that same FMV he get's a "DirectShow Error (VFW_E_NOT_FOUND)" He has a beastly graphics card and DirectX 9.0c. He does not have the RPG Maker RTP or anything, but he can't have it since I need my game to work on computers without RTP.

That's a missing codec. Save the movie in a different codec.

It was saved as a MPEG-4 format .avi when I converted the old video to a different codec, what should it be? DivX?
-
AVI is the container format.
MPEG-4 (mp4) is the codec.
Although you can use mp4 codec with avi container, it isn't recommended.
Also, if the video's mp4, then the audio is probably aac, not mp3.
And I don't think the older RPG Makers support mp4/aac; they probably just accept Divx/mp3, MPEG-1/mp3 and maybe wmv/wav.
-
So... you're saying I should select the DivX codec? In the converter it gives me the option for DIVX5 codec or DIVX codec... Which one should I choose? :shady:
-
Either one will probably work.
I think you also can't use a resolution that's too high, but I don't know what the limit is.
Might be 640 x 480, or 320 x 240, not sure.

The limit is 320x240, because that's what the game's resolution is. So I'll go give that a try.
