hie!!
Help please!! How to change font of Draw Score?? thanks!!

[Jumpey]

Under the draw tab is a set font action. It uses a font resource. Make sure you are running Game Maker in advanced mode (Change via file menu).

Well firstly set GM to advanced mode.
Done?
Then create a font, change that font's settings to fit your needs.
Go to the scores draw event and just above that code insert this.

draw_set_font(YOURFONT)

replace YOURFONT with your newly created font.

GML codes cannot have spaces in them. (usually)

Try changing the font name and code to this

Berlin_Sans_FB

Error in code at line 1:

at position 15: Unknown variable Forte

From the looks of that, your font that you put into game maker isnt called 'Forte'

Heres what you do

1. In game maker, create a font and then name it 'Forte'.

2. In the draw event of the obj_controller write the code that you put in on the last post.

3. It should work fine now.
