Title: LOTR TCG CARD FONTS
Post by: FoilFool on February 06, 2010, 06:44:02 PM
PSST...

Want to know if the official fonts made it out before they were lost and buried... yes the did...

Card Title Font
Game Text Font Bold inc. Symbols (early)
Game Text Font Regular inc. Symbols (early)
Game Text Font Italic inc. Symbols (early)
Lore Text Font
Symbols only (all series)

...and YES, I have acquired them :twisted:... If only I had the card templates to go with them, now wouldn't that be fun  :evil:

interesting.

I just got finished myself reconstructing the fonts from the various rulebook *.pdf's that I have, the symbols themselves were a piece of cake, the part that's hard is getting the font proper (I've had to draw the capital "Q" by hand, and it is teh suxxors).  I, for one, would be interested, if you wanted to post a link.

I believe the templates are floating around but I am not sure if people are willing to share them.

I would be interested in the fonts if you want to share. I have one pretty good template for Dwarves i can give in return. PM me if interested.

well then why come by wagging it in our faces?  way to be a jerk.

for those interested, I just got done compiling the card font from the card spoiler lists (seeing as they are quite long and embedded more of the font in the *.pdf than did the rulebooks).  So I'd be willing to spread that around if anyone wants it.  PM me if you do.


edit:
and, also, come to think of it, the tool I'm working on (tentatively named "CardMaker" for lack of a cooler name), besides allowing one to save all the info you need on a card, and saving scripts to run said card in the game I'm also writing, will at sometime around here allow for custom templates.  I've broken the four main card-layout styles into bite-sized (byte-sized?) pieces that could then be customized to one's liking.  All we need is a decent artist (I'm average at least) and we could imitate the original layouts.

Nice...
Ok I'll piss off then, I was only saying that there is a sure way of getting hold of the fonts yourself -  not some #$&*@! subset but would need a tiny little effort for those who can be bothered rather than just openly share with the me first and the gimmee gimmees of the world. Geez does your Mommy dress you too. I'll take this and shove it. Good luck with THAT

Huh? Really? Enjoy your fonts by yourself. The idea here is a community. If you have something to share then do it. But talking about it and not putting it out there isn't a great way to make friends. We all play together and develop the community together, no quid pro quos. Sorry if you're not interested in making friends.

You're always welcome to share, enjoy whats shared, play and participate anytime you want.
