This is currently hardcoded to 640x480 English builds.
What I've done is temporarily gutted the FreeType2 font renderer, and
instead introduced a system where the font is read from a
pre-rendered font atlas. This allows me to get 100% accurate font
rendering to Windows XP... because I literally created these atlases
with Windows XP.
So not only does this eliminate the issue of FreeType producing
misshapen glyphs, but it also works around the copyright issue
regarding bundling the Courier New and MS Gothic fonts with CSE2.
You see, font files can be copyrighted like any old software, however
typefaces have a lot less protection - they're basically fair-game.
IANAL, of course - look it up yourself.
I don't really want to throw away the FreeType font system since I
spent a ton of time working on it, it allows you to use other font
files, and I'll probably wind up needing it for CSE2EX. I guess I'll
just have to find some way to either have the two systems coexist, or
make it so one or the other can be selected at compile-time.
Noto is massive, and draws too far down for some reason. Also, it
draws too big at 20x20 (the size needed to get MS Gothic to display
accurately). This new font has none of those problems.
Big thanks to joexyz for recommending this font.
