Regression in Shinobido - Tales of the Ninja

[hrydgard]

Reported by email:

When I OPEN the GAME "Shinobido - Tales of the Ninja" it has a bug that all the Texts are Missing and Completely Dissappeared, and the Game is always Crashing.. unlike before I could play it No Problem and Beat the Game without resting.

Please FIX this Bug, so I could Played it again, before this 1.14.4 version udpate came and the bugs showed up.

[sum2012]

This is real PSP 's image, Not sure it use which font

[nassau-tk]

Uuuum....
I must adjust the Jpn0.pgf.
I will back to home on sunday.
Please, Give me a time!

[sum2012]

@nassau-tk don't hurry, We only need to fix it before v1.15.0 :)

[sum2012]

Another option is that force don't use jpn0.pgf for UCESXXXX 's games

[hrydgard]

Hm, that could be a possibility. Does the real PSP do something like that?

[sum2012]

Real psp log:
00:05.260 user_main - sceFontFindOptimumFont 0x8B7B730, 0x9FF9B88, 0x09FF9B5C(0x0) = 0x0
So that It really return Jpn0.pgf ? (arib.pgf and gb3s1518.bwfon don't count of 0 ?)

I have seen no evidence that the PSP sceFont library does any weird logic like that. I'm pretty sure it doesn't care what game you're playing, it just tries to match the requested style. I think I have games that correctly use jpn0.

"Glyph with negative size, not rendering" seems weird, though.

#Did nt get where is original jpn0.pgf ? Or where I should place jpn0.pgf ?
found solution - make dir in ppsspp directory flash0/font/
and copy jpn0.pgf there

ppsspp/flash0/font/jpn0.pgf

[sum2012]
