Hello,

I was just wondering if any one has the full english alphabet in lowercase in either prefab or model format. I am working on a word game but cannot use the default letter prefabs as they are all in captials.

thanks,

Rob

Within milkshape (http://chumbalum.swissquake.ch/) you can generate 3D-models from any character of any ttf-font and export it to md7.

You can also use blender to create Text's out of tft fonts. Just rightclick -> Insert Text and you can apply your needed settings.

I successfully made the alphabet using milkshape. However, when placing inside the game the engine slows down with just two of them. Is there a way to reduce the vertices/polygons if this is the problem?

thanks,

Rob

How many faces your letter have?
I just tried one and it's pritty lowpoly.

Maybe there is an other reason (texture size?)

I've solved the problem.

If you use the models exported straight from Milkshape in WED there are problems. However, I resaved the exported models using MED and everything seems fine.

Again, thanks for your help.

Rob
