Stupid Font Tricks and Mahjong Log #6

I was messing around with RPG Maker VX again a little bit last night after the mahjong game, and decided to try out some scanlating fonts to see how they’d look in it. Most of them looked fairly decent, but SFX fonts don’t hold up well. The following are some of the notable ones:

Aquafont Komika Display

ZUN

I’m gonna check and see how damage formula’s work next. My partner in crime knows the shortcut, but I’m more about the guts in this situation.

Anyway, the rest of the post contains the mahjong log using the Extra Dora rule.

School, Scanlation, and RPG Maker

Truth be told, this is probably my worst semester of college yet. One test after another, I’ve been getting less than acceptable grades consistently. I’m not sure what’s wrong since the material isn’t really that hard (physics 2, physical chem, molecular biology, though biochem is hard). Maybe I’m just not retaining the material like I used to, or maybe I’m just not reading the questions carefully. Either way, it’s disheartening which makes me wonder if I can continue to edit the doujins that have been piling up in our backlog. Well, an ounce of study is an ounce of prevention, so we’ll see for now.

In other news, I’m helping out with an RPG Maker project. I can’t say what it’s about exactly, but you can take a guess. To be of more use in other areas besides development, I’m trying to learn some stuff about the program which in this case is RPG Maker VX. So far, all I’ve really learned is how to touch up images and enhance them visually. Heh, doesn’t sound too different from what I already do. Anyway, samples follow which are not part of the project:
