I only made the font variations as I found the current then / and now variations poor.
I honestly believe that as far as CCP go, as long as they state you are EULA breaking, they are happy. As it is costing them nothing in additional licences in using a "hacked" font.
Personally, I do not expect to see a new font for EVE for a long time.
All I have given players , is the chance to choose. Remember all the screen shots that have been made were 1280x1024 images with the font setting made to condensed. ( no clear type function was / has been loaded ).
To the people who asked for lucidia and othe variants . Im afraid I will no longer have the time to complete them, due to RL commitments. but I am sure some one else will / can do them. without too much trouble. :)
Thank you for all your support btw

Hi all, 0lly here.
Alas havnt downloaded the new patch yet so I havnt seen the font.
Assuming CCP have yet again altered its font file / location . the only things I can say at this time is I will have a look into it.
I cannot say when as Im away working in RL at the moment and Ill be from my main workstation for a couple of weeks. But Ill have a go on my laptop.
Hopefully I may get a solution.
Regards

Yup ill throw my whole hearted support behind a customer choice font. Notice its the word customer and not player.
After all believe it or not we are customers.
Now there are many who have no complaint with the font. but I believe its down to the style of play. for example If you dont actually have to read through your 100+ sell/buy orders.etc the font is no doubt adequate. or if you dont have running conversations with players.
Basically If your style of play leaves reading down to a minimum then no doubt all these complaints are somewhat of a mystery.
on a side note - Im downloading the patch even as I type, and will have a good old hack at it when I have the time . But in the meantime please note that apparently my font variations no longer work. Apologies to any who wished to use them.
It would be nice if the devs took note - but I doubt it, as ccp no doubt dont want to pay for additional font licenses when they paid and designed the current one.
Should I get any success - ill let you know.
Regards

Well Ive downloaded the patch and installed it.
The font is realy poor. and definately not suited to my style of play.
Alas my tweaks dont work. and on initial inspection it looks very much as though the devs have locked the font into their python code.
I may have better luck when back from work and have more time ,but as the saying goes 'dont hold your breath'.
It is a shame that had this whole episode started 2 years back when ccp were a fledgling company and eager to listen to the problems the customers were having, this whole issue would have been resolved. However nowadays, ccp are more concerned about their own egos and just cant be bothered to listen anymore.
The font issue never really went away btw ccp.(over 2000 hits in just under 5 months on just my site alone) It even proves that people were ready to break the eula to play the game.
I will be sending in my bug reports for operation 'whitewash for deaf ears'. In the vain hope that someone from ccp manages to rectify what I believe to be a game breaker.
Yes and suspending payment schedules for all of my 4 accounts. After all its only a game and If I no longer enjoy using the interface then why pay for it.
Should I be more succesful in isolating / improving the font I will of course let you know.
It has been a blast playing these last 3 years. but as with all things they, sooner or later come to an end.
