Too many vertices - writing long text in level

Post by iCS »

What is the best font or the best method for writing long text without breaking the vertex limit (5130 vertices)?

Found this simple font, low vertex count, readable, elegant: SquareFont

Hmm, now works for me too, maybe I just had to restart SLE after installing font.

Anoter ting you can do is make a font in the editor using your own touch and then copy the letters one by one to write stuff and then wonder why in fuk you started this annoyingly slow process but hey at least it looks more like yours. Let me know if that helps.
then again i don't know anything
maybe easier not to think abouut alöl things thought than not things thought ... or something..=?

Ye that's what I did for bigquiz.lev
It uses exactly 5130 vertices :o

Here's my absolute bare minimum only half-legible script from bigquiz.lev
