Quick guide

To add your own custom fonts you need an png file with a 10:1 aspect ratio (or 11:1 if the font includes a special glyph for critical strikes) with the font drawn in 1234567890 order, the style can be anything as long as each character is not bigger than 32x32px or smaller than 8x8px. The files that follow the format can be added into the resources folder, reloading the resources or restarting the game will create the neccesary files and allow the font to be selected in-game.
The font name must be in characters a-z, 0-9 ._-

A more detailed guide can be accessed directly from the mod settings menu or below.
