H2 Font Editor

In relation to information that can be found here.

Here is the first <known> Halo 2 font editor. It requires you to have the H2 fonts already to use it (can be found on disc).

Just select your base font, the new font output name, load your image (8bpp, 24bpp RGB, 32 ARGB supported), select the slot to import to (existing or new) and choose your own Unicode value to link to it (not needed if replacing an existing image)

H2 Font Editor Program (v1.0):
H2FontEdit.rar
H2FontEdit-1.0 Source.rar
* As with all my source code, feel free to use, learn, copy, modify whatever as you like. Credit is always nice if you do use it, but meh.

H2 Font Viewer Program:
H2FontViewer.rar
H2 Font Editor Program & source can also be found on the misc FTP server:
ftp://ftp.remnantmods.com/Troy%20Mac1ur ... ntEdit.rar
Source Code:
ftp://ftp.remnantmods.com/Troy%20Mac1ur ... Source.rar

To put ranks into custom games:
  1. Extract the rank images from the menu
  2. Add the rank images to a font
  3. Add a label next to each players name in the custom game screens
  4. Assign a single character string to each of these
  5. Use RTH to set the players ranks

I am aware of Halo fonts for windows, but not in-game font viewer/editors (links?). Anyways, yes this is an editor for Xbox or Vista fonts. It's not 100% perfect, but all the characters are viewable (notice weapons are not smooth and some icons are missing small sections).
Images can be injected into the fonts (such as custom weapon icons) although the injected images/characters are not compressed/optimized at all.
