cs go, 2014. 2024 - but this addon will hold these old days and never update again. I appreciate it.

Installed the font locally, used your recommended code to load the font at startup by switching the video mode twice, and works perfectly - thank you for that.
I did notice a type you might want to look into though, if it hasn't been fixed already - the code mentioned turning mat_fullbright back to 0, but it was misspelled as met_fullbright 0, so it failed to turn off the fullbright effect until I noticed and fixed it in my autoexec.

so sad :tbpsad:
thanks for the answers anyways.

@Kuroi In my understanding, game's .exe is programmed this way and there's no way to change that
NORU 5 Jul, 2019 @ 10:40am 
well its kinda be better if it keeps in russian + makes fonts work somehow.
i am actually using the english version of the game in language settings but since my steam language is in russian - all the text and captions is RU and the voices in EN, so i kinda want to keep it that way. Ideas?
Urik  [author] 5 Jul, 2019 @ 10:38am 
well, you can launch the game in english with launch option -language english
NORU 5 Jul, 2019 @ 10:37am 
Daym, no way to avoid it somehow, change the russian one for this one for example?
Like raw replace the original with it?
Urik  [author] 5 Jul, 2019 @ 10:28am 
@Kuroi oh shit I forgot. Of course. L4D2 uses ugly fallback font (like Arial) for cyrilic languages (including Russian). I should've realized when I saw your screenshot. So the font mods won't work. I haven't played or modded L4D2 for years so I forgot.
NORU 5 Jul, 2019 @ 9:35am 
my interface language is on russian, can it conflict with the font somehow?
Urik  [author] 5 Jul, 2019 @ 9:07am 
@Kuroi well I don't know what else to think of at this point
NORU 5 Jul, 2019 @ 8:38am 
its cfg of course duh, and i tryed it in console too, nothing.
Urik  [author] 5 Jul, 2019 @ 8:25am 
@Kuroi try that command in console directly. If it works, then likely your autoexec isn't executed. Maybe it's still a .txt file - judging from your screenshot, you don't have extension display enabled in explorer. Extension should be .cfg
NORU 5 Jul, 2019 @ 8:01am

so thats what i did in autoexes as you said but font is still vanilla, i don't understand :tbpsad:
i do placed addon into addons, nothing changes...
It's even not working if i delete all my addons installed and just leave only your font one in addons.
Urik  [author] 5 Jul, 2019 @ 7:07am 
@Kuroi because of how workshop works, it requires manual change of resolution - by entering the original command or the reloadfont you have aliased via autoexec. Because workshop files lag and are only loaded some seconds after game is started. Those errors you mentioned are regular for l4d2. The only way to have the font load automatically would be to de-workshop it ( move from \workshop folder to \addons and unsub ). Then it would work via simple mat_setvideomode in autoexec ( same but without "alias reloadfont" and " " marks )
NORU 5 Jul, 2019 @ 6:30am 
when i do "reloadfont" in console i get this 3 errors:

Couldn't find custom font file 'resource/marlett.ttf'
Unable to remove d:\steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\textwindow_temp.html!
UpdateSystemLevel: ConVar mat_queue_mode controlled by gpu_level/cpu_level must not be marked as FCVAR_ARCHIVE or FCVAR_CHEAT!

Is this helpful to solve the problem?
I'm also using l4d1 styled listed menu and NeunGUI
NORU 5 Jul, 2019 @ 6:12am 
it's not working at all. Did all that things you've told and font is total vanilla.

- dropped vpk to addons\unsubscribed
- created autoexec.cfg in \left4dead2\cfg\
- dropped the
alias reloadfont "mat_setvideomode 1366 768 1; mat_setvideomode 1366 768 0"
inside it (it's my resolution)

nothing changes at all.
am i stupid and missed something or?
The Spy 31 Mar, 2019 @ 4:05am 
Hey Urik, I did all that it needs and it worked! :D
It also works for Widescreens and other resolutions, you should try it!
For example: I have 1280 x 800 resolution, I typed in command reloadfont, switched the Normal in Aspect Radio to Widescreen 16:10
and then worked!
I give it 100000000000000000/10. :D

okay thank you very much!
Urik  [author] 11 Jun, 2018 @ 10:26am 
the third value of mat_setvideomode stands for screen mode. 1 for windowed and 0 for fullscreen. I don't however, remember, if there is a value for borderless fullscreen, or if it's possible with mat_setvideomode at all
Δpp 11 Jun, 2018 @ 9:33am 
Urik, you can't make for fullscreen mode?? I need that on fullscreen
Urik  [author] 11 Jun, 2018 @ 8:04am 
Alright, someone has previously left a comment which appears to have been deleted by now. Regarding loading font mods automatically: the only way to do that is to un-workshop the addon ( find the .vpk in addons/workshop, cut & paste it in /addons, then unsubscribe, and add the mat_setvideomode lines to autoexec ). It's the only way, because it isn't possible with workshop files that take time to initialize and the broken loading of "scheme" res files ( reason for mat_setvideomode trick)
Urik  [author] 23 Apr, 2018 @ 12:41am 
@ノワール read the instructions, the color scheme is activated the same way, together with the font, through resolution change

something resolution CSgo font error, you will fix this font
Urik  [author] 19 Mar, 2018 @ 7:00am 
@pufftwitt wow, interesting set of tools, would be useful if it could compile vfont too but I suppose it either isn't possible or there is no demand for backwards conversion

. 27 Aug, 2017 @ 2:53am 
@Urik:Thank you
Urik  [author] 27 Aug, 2017 @ 2:49am 
@Neptune It's Valve's proprietary format, there's no publicly known tools to open it

Hello, I would like to ask vfont file how to view?
snowzin 12 Jul, 2017 @ 7:18am 
Thanks i love this font! Totally working and there aren't bugs!
Urik  [author] 19 Jun, 2016 @ 9:37am 
These font mods are made compatible with default hud or my custom huds, and tested in multiple resolutions. If you use someone else's custom hud, it may have compatibility problems. If you provide screenshots or resolution/addons info, that might clarify the issue though.
Juleris 19 Jun, 2016 @ 8:33am 
I tried and it didn't work, guess not.

Also this is making it so I don't see how much ammo my primary or secondary has, and it causes the stats in the credits to stack on each other making them unreadable.
Urik  [author] 19 Jun, 2016 @ 7:50am 
@Juleris I'm not sure it actually accepts console commands especially multiple
Juleris 19 Jun, 2016 @ 7:23am 
Couldn't you just set it in the launch options?

Hey everyone! Here's a little tip about adding font mods to left 4 dead 2, if you right click on left 4 dead 2 then properties then set launch options, then add the console command: alias reloadfont "mat_setvideomode 1920 1080 1; mat_setvideomode 1920 1080 0" then you wont have to enter that command everytime you open your game!
