[GUIDE] Changing the I's and l's looks

Hitman144 · **Joined:** Feb 2007 **Posts:** 1303 **Location:**

*** This is not a Pk2 edit ****
*** note that, pk2 editing can get you banned this is a safer way to change the i and l looks***
*** note that all the other text WILL STILL LOOK THE SAME:!: just the I's and L's look diffrent

ok lets get started

1) first download this arial.ttf ( ttf = true type file ) from here,
http://files.filefront.com/arialttf/;92 ... einfo.html

2) once the download is finished, open the folder were you saved your download.

3) now open the font folder
Open My Computer then, C:\WINDOWS\Fonts.

4) in the font folder, make a backup of your arial.ttf. Once you have made a backup of your arial.ttf, delete the arial.ttf in the font folder.

5) copy and paste the new arial.ttf you downloaded from file font to your font folder

6) restart your computer, RESTART IMMEDIATELY.

once you have restarted, open silkroad and the I's and the L's should look like this,

yea screen shot is from a friend, and thats his server.
i was donwloading a movie atm so i couldnt start sro.

no all the other text look the same just the I and the L change
thanks for that i edited it on ther*
it will make the I and the L look diffrent even outside of sro.

so in a website u get and itz made of I and L that look the same, it will make the website name more easy to read

your welcome

this is also safe , and more convenient. you wont need to keep pk2 editing over and over, when joymax updates the pk2 file

works great

think i could get some credit maybe?

and it will change some text outside of game - anything that uses the standard Arial font. The only change made to the font file is that the I from Tahoma has been stuck into Arial.

i strongly advise everyone to do this it takes about 2 minutes and its nice in other stuff too not just sro

I cant do anything ... cant delete original Arial, cant replace it ....
Any help? It says access denied ... I have 4 Arials (Black , Bold , Black-Italic , Bold-Italic) ... And when I delete them, and when I try to put Arial I downloaded from you , it says that Arial is already installed ...

If you want change font you can do it in textuisystem.txt(media.pk2) under entry UIC_STT_FONTNAME.
BUT :twisted:

if you change font the text in game may not fit in columns.

i suggest against this because it changes the text on ur whole comp instead of silkroad

i'd suggest the hex edit way by changing it form English to Korean

-.- · **Posted:** Fri Aug 22, 2008 1:26 am

ooo old but nice guide

i just used it on eldorado

i dont mind entire computer being changed... Dont use Arial much :S and it isnt like the I is improper or anything lol
