Most likely you changed the default font to one which isn't installed.

Now that sounds like it makes sense, however could you elaborate a bit, like were do i get these new fonts if thats how you do it, or where do i change it to one i do have, where to even see what i have something.

Basically, you may have a script (for instance) with this syntax: Font.default_name = 'Bewilder BRK'
In this case, if the font Bewilder BRK is not installed in the C:\Windows\Fonts folder, nothing will appear.

Hmm ok im trying to get up to speed here, I am using a crappy outside script that uses a differnt font, now I dont have a folder made that has fonts/windows in it and im guesses there is not a default one cause i couldnt find it, now I can find this line in the script and change it but is there actual resoures here for font color? if thats all it is to fix right, just make the folder and add in a new font?

What you can do is search the name of the font used by the script, and change it to a font actually installed on your computer. Or download the font used (dafont is a nice site for this) and install it.

The font has to be installed in that folder.

It auto put it in that folder when i installed one, however there are even more bug with this faces script them before cause i have the font and now it moved to a line 87 error....this crap just does not work.

You have to be more specific when you mention errors. What faces script? And there are literaly thousands of scripts that have 87 lines. And finally - What does the error say?

Quite frankly a lot of scripts, especially the more complex ones, are not plug-and-play and usually need some configuration work. Also, the order of your scripts has an impact on functionality as well. This 'crap' may not be working because you set it up wrong, or not at all.

This should give a general idea of a large script setup (Just ignore the ATB ones)

It could also very well be any # of scripts out there since you never told us what script it was huh.gif

Anyway, at least you got it working right.
