One of the easiest ways to start programming is to start messing around in a free game editor or trying to hack games you're really into. If it drives you with passion, you will learn it just like that. There are many tutorials out there on how to start programming and further learning a language, but I, personally, find that if I use external help to try and get what I'm doing (I usually manage using the tool's manual itself and my knowledge of Maths and logic), I enjoy watching other people program most, for example by watching videos rather than reading about it online.Lightoon said:

It's possible to use this "hack" in all Rayman Games ?

I was wondering, has anyone extracted the font textures from Rayman 2 yet? I know ZodiakCorporation made Rayman Adventures, and while it is a good replica, after careful observation, I've come to the conclusion it's not as similar to the real thing as I'd like it to be. So I was going to use the original textures of the letters to create another font, this time with the real letters.
No offence meant to ZC - your work is brilliant - but I want to use R2's own letters, because I like the style a lot.
In any case, has anyone extracted those textures yet?

Right. How did that work, again? And is it Mac compatible or will I have to fling myself onto my dusty Windows?

Meh, perhaps it's better if we discussed this in the topic intended for it: https://dev801.raymanpc.com/forum/threads/rayman-2-texture-hacking-tutorial.12592/
They've got in-depth instructions on the first post.

I've had bad experiences getting Wine to do what I want in the past.
Anyway, now that I have the textures and have tried creating a font out of them, I realised I'd much rather tell my game engine to use those letters whenever it needs to draw text. Sorry, if anyone was anticipating a font from me - but there's still Rayman Adventures and it's a great font! Should be good enough for anyone's purposes but my own.

Note that there's another Rayman 2 font available here: https://dev801.raymanpc.com/forum/threads/rayman-fonts.7345/Shrooblord said:Anyway, now that I have the textures and have tried creating a font out of them, I realised I'd much rather tell my game engine to use those letters whenever it needs to draw text.
