Hey, the Mac version doesn't work on the latest versions of Mac OS. I tried loading but all I get is a blank screen. Any chance of an update please? |

Don't you get to keep the pixels though if you time out during the escape and retry? |

Speaking of music, I remember you saying you liked Jay Som a couple years back. Have you tried this collab album she made this year called Doomin' Sun? It's outstanding! |

Also the concert was postponed for almost a year, so maybe I will be able to go! |

Thanks for the fontadvice.
So are you just autoencoding a game with it's own representation, or something slightly more fun like training on mario and then using the network on zelda? Hmm, could be fun to encode on snes mario and the use the network to visualize nes mario. |

I have the same question; is there someone else on here? I believe that Free Hero Mesh now has the features capable of implementing Escape (including bizarro world and order of execution) (if the levels are not bigger than 64x64). (If the puzzles of Escape include the solutions, then automatic testing of the conversion will be possible too.) |

second page of google results. the world has crumbled.
also, i had this nightmare that the logical conclusion of pac tom is you move to another city.
i'll go put on some "rutgers" and "i'm a proof" to steady my breathing |

Thanks folks! Happy birthday to you too!
I certainly didn't invent FixedSys but it's true that I use some form of it in an awful lot of my projects, partly because I used a modified bitmap version of it in Escape, and I end up cloning "font.png" into most of my SDL projects. (Oddly I am able to resist the urge to make a new font at the moments where I think: "I need to render some text!")

Since TTF uses integer coordinates, it seems to me that you get perfect results if you size the grid so that the source pixels fall exactly on the grid, and then just outline the shape. It seems to help to explicitly turn off anti-aliasing when rasterizing it, too, although only if you are super picky (I am).
If you want to try to convert a font, you could try my "makesfd" here (it's just standalone C++17):
https://sourceforge.net/p/tom7misc/svn/HEAD/tree/trunk/bit7/
although you probably need to manually make the input image (see e.g. fixedersys.png and its associated cfg file). You have to load the generated SFD format with FontForge to actually generate the TTF. It's also possible that FontForge already has a way to do this, especially if you already have some kind of font file.
The NES images pictured are basically just an autoencoder I was using to test out, yes! |

Yes that's what I meant about Monkey Island!
"2nd playthrough" was about Cave Story, but I was referring to the upside-down part of SOTN. If there's a NG+ or something I never tried it :) |

The particle board that is used today in construction is made out of various types of trees, for, pine, alder, cottonwood. When these trees are brought to the chip mill that have mushroom spore already attached to them, whether it be from natural mutation on the tree or if spore was smeared on the tree somewhere at sometime during the processing of the tree from the forest.
These tree are cut into chip and hauled to another mill which gathers all the chips together and flattens them into construction particle board, this the mushroom spores are already impregnated into the material.
The spore can go thru a lot of conditions and remain dormant until the perfect conditions arise and thus the mushroom comes back to life to self-propugate, it being in your bathroom, under your bed, the kitchen sink area, where the conditions proved. |

Is this just an autoencoder or is something more fancy going on? |
| |
I too have fond memories of monkey island sword fighting (I assume you are talking about the final boss fight where all the comebacks are different).
How is the 2nd playthru of sotn different? You don't mean the upside down part do you? It just feels like more of the same to me.... |
| |
So how hard is it to make a fake bitmap ttf? I've got the sgi console font in a true bitmap font format (.font) and none of the online sites are interested in converting to a modern font format that window 10+ demands.

This is so very weird. I first saw your fonts... 25? years ago, but just last month tripped over this blog. Sometimes the world is very small. Happy birthday! |

Looking at those images of FixedSys, I'm realizing that in my mind FixedSys has always just been "The Tom7 font" :P |

Thanks for perusing my old things and for telling me, Someone! (: |

Hey Tom, just letting you know that you still rock, and your old stuff still rules. |

Well, I did also consider the possibility that rather than using cake, which you can bake in advance and store for weeks, your costume includes something more perishable so you need to do most of the setup on the dawn of the race. |

jonas: I sure made it sound like that, huh? It is well underway although I did make a mistake in the design (isn't this what CAD is supposed to prevent??) that was a bit discouraging, but correctable. It is still true that I can probably get this done in a weekend if I just stop getting distracted (: |
