Up Topic Gosu / Gosu Exchange / Custom fonts in Linux
- By TheOm3ga Date 2010-01-15 22:08
Hi there! I'm developing a open source game in C++ using Gosu. I knew Gosu could use custom ttf fonts in games, but I hadn't realized it didn't work on linux until I tried.

Anyway, I would like to know why it does not work. What exactly happens in linux to prevent it working? Isn't there any kind of alternative way to accomplish this task?

Hello :)

See this page for the details of this bug.
The bugzilla bug seems a bit outdated though..

Yeah, basically we found out about this limitation after the Linux port of Font/createText had been written. No time for a rewrite using a different library so far.
