To improve visual consistency during dynamic font rendering, especially
on lower-end machines or during low FPS moments, we now preload a set of
common Latin letters, digits, and punctuation glyphs immediately after a
font is loaded by the FontManager.
This reduces the likelihood of users seeing empty or missing characters
on the first frame after a font is used, minimizing visual glitches
during simulation.
The preloaded characters include:
- Uppercase and lowercase Latin letters (A–Z, a–z)
- Digits (0–9)
- Common punctuation and symbols (e.g., .,;:!?()[]{}<> etc.)
This change helps smooth the user experience and avoids blank spaces
during the initial rendering of text in performance-constrained
scenarios.
The FreeType font loader was directly passing filesystem-style paths
(e.g., mod.zip/...) to FT_New_Face, which does not support paths inside
ZIP archives. As a result, FreeType failed to open the font, triggering
a crash when the engine attempted to use an invalid face object.
This patch changes the font loading logic to:
Use the VFS to read the .ttf font file into memory (shared_ptr<u8> and
size).
Load the font using FT_New_Memory_Face with the in-memory buffer,
ensuring compatibility with zipped mods.
This commit enhances text rendering by leveraging FreeType and a dynamic
font atlas. Previously, GUI scaling relied on bitmap fonts, which led to
blurry and distorted text when scaling up. Now, we scale the font size
directly using FreeType, resulting in much sharper and more readable
text at any GUI scale.
Key improvements:
- Replaced bitmap font scaling with true font size scaling via FreeType.
- Reduced glyph cache dependency on fixed positions, relying on shader
scaling instead.
- Switched to float-based glyph positioning for more accurate rendering
and scaling.
These changes ensure clean and consistent text appearance across
different GUI scales.
A last minute change in #7787 caused the bold and italic identifiers of
fonts to be ignored once it got merged in 734386ce9f and all fonts to
be rendered as regular fonts. This commit fixes that.
Replace premade bitmap fonts with FreeType2 and dynamic texture atlas.
Switched from static, premade bitmap fonts to runtime-generated glyphs using FreeType2.
Glyphs are rendered on demand into a dynamic texture atlas, improving scalability,
font quality, and support for internationalization.
Currently using RGBA format for compatibility across all render
paths while initial support for R8_UNORM is being added.
This prepares for future optimizations in VRAM and performance
Includes groundwork for gamma-corrected blending and future swizzling support.
Avoid cases of filenames
Update years in terms and other legal(ish) documents
Don't update years in license headers, since change is not meaningful
Will add linter rule in seperate commit
Happy recompiling everyone!

This makes incremental recompilation faster when changing static

Everything is char* now, so we don't need to mess around with different
string types.

Add optional clipping rectangle to CTextRenderer. Strings that are
printed
outside the vertical extent of the clipping rectangle will be
immediately
skipped. This greatly reduces the cost of large scrollable text boxes.
This was SVN commit r14019.
Replace unifont with CFont and CFontManager, since the h_mgr interface
was
needlessly inconvenient.
Load the font textures through CTextureManager, to support dynamic
reloading (e.g. when resetting GL state - see #741).
Add CFontMetrics as a convenient wrapper for code that just wants to
measure text.
Fixes#1117.
This was SVN commit r14016.
