FontHacker 0.93

Posted Apr 13, 2006 at 2:10PM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: Hacks & Exploits, How-To, Applications Tags: psp exploits, psp hacks

Freeplay and Skylark have released version 0.93 of their "FontHacker" program. This PC program enables users to manage and/or install the font hack, configure font options (shape, shadow, shadow position), conversion of TrueType fonts to a usable format for the PSP and can generate all 16 types of the font files. This release will aid many of those who struggled with the font hack in the past and will allow for many users to convert their own files without hassle. We have seen many users create "font packs" for those who were unfortunate to work on their own fonts themselves, but with this program, it is now easy for everyone! For once, 1.50 users may have to suffer somewhat, even though we have the full PSP access. It has been noted that 1.50 users may have to reset their PSP system settings in order for the font hack to work. This reminds me a lot of PSPersonalize in which users had to mess around with their PSP's a few times in order for the background to show. This is a great PC program that all should download, even if you think you are never going to use it! Think of this as a part of a rare PSP homebrew collection, it is a must have!

1. Download the Font Hacker: http://freeplay.unaligned.org/FHacker093.zip

2. Download the RegHacks pack: http://freeplay.unaligned.org/RegHacks.zip

3. In the Reghacks ZIP file are two folders - 'fontmod' and 'psp'. Copy both of these to the root of your memory stick. If it asks to replace files, say Yes To All.

4. Extract the Font Hacker program to a folder on your PC. It doesn't matter where.

5. Look in C:\Windows\Font s for some fonts you like. If C:\Windows\ isn't your Windows folder, find it, then go into the Fonts folder. Make sure they say that they're TrueType fonts. Copy those files into your Font Hacker folder.

6. Open up Font Hacker and load one of the font files you copied. Tweak the settings to your liking, then click Add Font.

7. Repeat #6 for as many fonts as you want to convert.

8. Pick the font you want to use from the list and click "Install font to PSP."

# gta eloader — Guest 2006-04-13 19:48

do you need the latest version of the GTA eloader Bock?

# Invalid filename — Guest 2006-04-13 22:01

Why this "Invalid filename" message comes up?

# Only one font at a time? — Guest 2006-04-13 22:19

Cant choose fonts, is it only the last font you put on can be used.

Also, to restore the normal font, just go to font hack and reboot, it will be back to normal

# Invalid filename — Guest 2006-04-14 00:58

Its working now, Old English looks cool.

# re:invalid filename — Guest 2006-04-14 03:01

badly programmed is why it comes up with file errors. this is because it hasnt been programmed to take into account font names with spaces - like my program DOES.

dont use this bull***** is my advice.

# Invalid — Slikens 2006-04-14 03:15

I got same message of invalid filename.......anyone?

# I got it working :):) — Guest 2006-04-14 06:39

Thanks "FreePlay" for the little install guide, I got it working on my 2.60 PSP and It's VERY cool.

Thanks.

Thanks.

# Help Please: Button Hack — Guest 2006-04-14 07:33

Hey I just downloaded http://freeplay.unaligned.org/RegHacks.zip

and managed to get the font maker working, curious on what the button hack was I ran it, and now my O and X buttons are switched.

How can I reverse this?

-Thanks

# Roar — Slikens 2006-04-14 08:14

Ok i'm definetely confused now, I just hope somebody can read this. I just realized there are more than one method to actually change the fonts of a psp.

My problem is that all of the methods don't work for me for some reason. I tried the fonhacker program but it keeps saying invalid filename, which is practically bogus because i did put a truetype font in the font hack folder.

Than i just made my own font by using the ttf2pgf program. I successfully converted the ttf to a pgf file. Than again, i put that file into the fontmod folder. It replaced the original ltn0.pgf. Than for some reason it didn't work.

Than i got frustrated so i came here and typed this all out.

Help me?

# Anyone?? — Slikens 2006-04-14 08:24

oh yeah and one other thing.

It says Slikens, but i'm logged in as SlikenSx. Another problem is that i cna't even post in the forums....

can someone activate my account??

And plz answer above, i'm desperate now.

# LOVE IT — Guest 2006-04-14 10:20

LOVE IT NOW I CAN HAVE RED SOX FONT!!!!

# ummmm... — Guest 2006-04-14 20:05

Everything went well until I got to the part where I had to hard boot it, I did so and the PSP said "your system files are corrupted, please press O to restore default settings".

What gives?

# > — RizenKaos 2006-04-15 03:23

This app is pretty tight! installed fonts no prob with no error messages. I have no idea how some people have the balls to complain about FREE software. There's nothing wrong with this app it's either you or your pc, so stop ripping on people who are actually contributing to the community.

# god *****ing dammit — j_dawg469 2006-04-15 18:02
