Full EXE font trouble

[reflux]

As the title says, and I guess a lot of you have seen it before,
there is something really important missing in RPG maker 2003
When transforming your game into a standalone executable

The Dialogue is invisible!

Does anyone know how to fix this bug?

Thanks!

Hmm, I don't think I've ever seen anything like that, unless you're describing it differently than what I'm used to.

Does it appear like that in test play mode, too? Or just when booting up the RPG_RT?

[reflux]

Ok, so I looked up the right terms because I'm sure someone must have encountered this problem before,
when I make a gamedisk of it, it makes a setup file, if I open this
file it only gives question marks like this....

with two buttons which are "okay" and "cancel" but look like this
                   

Well, this is the problem I'm getting now, the text in the game
works fine, but on another computer I installed it once and there
was no text in the game either...
If antyone could help me I would be forever grateful to CHARAS FORUM and the holy RPG2003

rpgmaker uses it's own fonts for the text messages in-game. if you don't install this fonts the game just show u empty message boxes.

but it's kind of strage since windows normally replaces it with the "small fonts" font.

about the installer: .... beats me X-P

I don't think the installer was every translated to english, well at least I haven't seen the patch, so thats why its all messed up.

Not many people use the 'create game disk' option in rm2k3. Usually they just find their project folder, and zip it up. If you plan on distributing the project to people without rm2k3, you'll have to copy all the rtp resources and files into your game folder before zipping it up.

If you wanted to, you could download a program that creates an installer for this.

But yeah, I wouldn't use the create game disk option for this.
