FONTS FONTS and even more FONTS

Archive: 9 posts


Hi ho everyone. Well its been quite aawhile since I've seen a fonts level published or updated. I keep seeing all these new fonts throughout the community. Some being from move art paint hand made and others materially made.

well we have mr fusions font hub, but what else have we gotten so comprehensive in such a long time?

so my question help wise is this: will you help me in gathering as many different fonts as possible. I am mainly looking for sticker fonts made by move paint and anything else we can find. Thx

No one makes any font levels anymore because MM messed up the whole font creation thing in LBP2. You used to be able to copy one letter at a time when you got a font as a prize, but now every piece of a community object is connected so you can't copy the individual parts anymore. This effectively killed the font creation because, while there are work-arounds, they are very time-consuming and cause you to save each letter individually, taking up 26 times as much space in the goodies bag. Basically, MM messed everything up. Way to go guys! Lol 2013-09-04 01:47:00

Actually, if it is a material font, you can simply make a stencil of the font by placing it in a material, and then using that stencil to cut out am editable version of the font! 2013-09-04 04:37:00

I agree, it was stupid of MM to change this. Oddly enough, objects/prizes obtained before this update function as originally intended.

This is very time consuming, but I suppose it would work.

@L-I-M-I I have taken the time to stencil out each of comphermc's fonts (originally for me ). Again, giving then to you via a prize bubble would cause them to be "connected", so just add me on PSN and you can capture them in create mode.2013-09-10 03:29:00

I can't say that working with fonts is that difficult, for me at least. Even if you are working with a lot of letters, numbers, and/or symbols, it won't probably take up more than 10 minutes to stencil everything. And that's if you're writing a page of a novel or something. Or for a lot of instructions.

Here's pictures of what I do every time I need a certain set of words, took less than 5 minutes - including getting the stickers...and forgetting to copy the O

Select each letter individually that I need and move them by one layer. Drag a material through them to create the stencil.

Delete the original font object.

Use the stencil, also copying and cutting with any pieces that aren't directly connected to the letter. Then position where ever.

That font was the 'Impact' font from comphermc's level.


I have a fairly good sized collection of fonts.

Nice post and idea Limi. It would be nice to compile a list of helpful online libraries for all sacks to pillage from. Besides fonts, it would be great to have one for fancy shapes, merged stuff, scaled stuff, texture packs, etc… (I’m actually working on a bunch of move paint texture’s and I hope to release them to the community sooner rather than later).

I still do use a lot of comph’s old fonts, but I’ve always got one eye open for new stuff. I know for certain there are some groovy sticker fonts out there and I have at least one in my possession. However, I’m not certain the author wants it published yet to the community. I do agree that the sticker fonts are the hot thing and I could never have enough font options at my disposal.

I made a medieval sort of font for my most recent big level dungeon break, but I haven't given it out yet. I'll let you know if I do.2013-09-25 11:56:00
