This can be corrected by using font_ansi.bin extracted from a real GameCube bios.

  • Status changed from New to Questionable

We use unofficial font files; I don't think this is fixable.

It should be fixable with a font more closely aligned with the GC BIOS font. Finding such a font that is freely available is the problem.

Actually, the text looks just fine in 4.0-1308

Stevoisiak, that's 'cause 1308 had the official fonts illegally included. >_>

  • Status changed from Questionable to Invalid

It wasn't official fonts, it was reverse engineered fonts from another emulator. If someone wants to make an issue report for making a more size appropriate unofficial font, feel free.

Actions #7

Unclear that this issue is invalid, it certainly is a problem for Dolphin /wo a BIOS image.

Actions #8

Updated by kolano over 9 years ago

Created a new issue, 8653, for the font revision enhancement.
