Hi there!

You need to give me more information than just " it does not work on my project".

  1. When you start your project, press F12, a browser window will open. Go to the CONSOLE tab and send me a screenshot of what is in there.
  2. Are you using EliMZ Book on your project?
  3. Did you use the bitmap font of the sample project ? If yes, are you sure the parameters from your project matches the ones of the sample project?
  4. If you created your own, did you verify if the fonts image has the same amount of characters as it is on the plugin parameter?

What I always advise is for you to compare the sample project with yours. And try to replicate the bitmap font of the sample project on yours too. After managed that. move on to create your own fonts.

Hello again, I seem have to found the problem I was facing.

When I first inserted the plugin the parameter for "All Characters" was empty. I didn't pay much attention to this and went straight to testing.

This one small mistake led to the plugin not working entirely :

However when I pressed Text and back again to Structure the parameters showed up normally :

I'm honestly confused about this, I'm not really the brightest in programming >^< Really sorry if the following answers isn't quite understandable.

To answer your questions:

  1. This picture is taken AFTER I used the working plugin (the json for the bitmap is created, when it didn't work before it didn't create it), but for this picture I'm using the error one (whenever I add it in, the "All Characters" parameter is empty like the picture above, though somehow it fixed itself after going back and forth Text and Structure).

  2. As of the error happened, no I didn't use EliMZ Book. BitmapFont is the only EliMV plugin I used.
  3. I tried using the font from the sample.
  4. I did make my own, though I redid my bitmap after the plugin worked to match the parameter (I used this tool: https://stmn.itch.io/font2bitmap).

I'm really sorry if this wasn't a real issue with the plugin itself, I was really really stressed out when trying to find a way to make bitmap fonts and don't really understand programming that much. I really appreciate the quick respond!

Also this is my result currently (It worked fantastic 5/5):

Hi there!

Thanks for the reply! I manage to understand it! The problem was the EliMZ_Book that you are not using and also the plugin parameter that was properly configured. But you seem to fixed it now with that Font To Bitmap Converter tool. Very nice!

Glad it is working now! Have fun!
