Is there an updated version?
Kryo  [author] 7 May, 2019 @ 1:25pm 
haha, nice. Have fun! :)

@Kryo: Thanks for suggestions.
I unsubscribed, cleaned gfx, have only 13 mods, but that did not help. I did get the font working by manual download, but I had to manually copy fonts and interface directories to gfx directory. I later deleted those and subscribed again, wanting to compare, but the font now just works.
Weird. I'll not touch it until it works :)
Now I just need to learn to read fracture ;]

@andreskee: Thanks! Glad you like it! You could try these things:

1) Delete everything in Documents\Paradox interactive\Europa Universalis IV\gfx and let the game rebuild that folder on startup (this helped many people getting mods to work)

2) Make sure you're not subbed to more than 49 mods. Personally, I started getting problems when I was above 50 mods.

3) The manual download (the red button in the description).

Great Work! Screenshots look wonderful! But it does not work for me - subscribed, macOS, only font mod selected, 1.28.3. Is there anything else I need to do?
Kryo  [author] 12 Feb, 2019 @ 12:37pm 
you're probably running another mod that overwrites the map font.
Shimmer 22 Jan, 2019 @ 10:16am 
It doesn't appear to be working for the map font....
Only the Interface (text) font worked so far.
Kryo  [author] 13 Oct, 2018 @ 3:10am 
updated for EU4 1.27!

This mod crashes the game in the current version, please update
Kryo  [author] 6 Aug, 2018 @ 8:52am 
Only one map font at a time. You're free to switch to another one during playthroughs, though - even in an ironman game.
Gaylord Zapikowski, Pirate Lord 6 Aug, 2018 @ 6:30am 
Just for clarity, I can only choose one of the fonts, not have a combination (my modding experience goes about as far as editing text files, and there probably is an advanced way to make that work if they aren't modular in some way, but I just need the clarification)? Thanks again!
Gaylord Zapikowski, Pirate Lord 6 Aug, 2018 @ 6:15am 
Much thanks!
Kryo  [author] 6 Aug, 2018 @ 6:14am 
You can download the map font on the paradox forums. (Fraktur map fonts) Just click the red download button in the description. Also, the interface fonts addon should obverwrite this one, but I'm not sure about that.
Gaylord Zapikowski, Pirate Lord 6 Aug, 2018 @ 12:51am 
Is it possible to have this has a map font mod standalone? Or will the existing interface font mod overwrite this one?
Der Preuße 24 Apr, 2018 @ 2:46pm 
Thanks!
Kryo  [author] 24 Apr, 2018 @ 2:33pm 
Updated for 1.25!
J. J. 14 Mar, 2018 @ 10:29am 
pls update.
Tulip 22 Jan, 2018 @ 5:08pm 
update dadddy
Der Preuße 5 Jan, 2018 @ 6:58am 
I recently tried to fix it myself and whats happening is that its complaining about permissions, the error thats crashing it is this in the exceptions.log : ## EXCEPTION: 0xC0000005 at address: 0x00FA87D5: ACCESS VIOLATION read attempt to address 0x00000000
Version: Unknown Version 12/31/17 12:31:20

And I have absolutely no idea what that means so I gave up for the time being.
The Pidgin Pigeon 5 Jan, 2018 @ 6:13am 
Please Update Kryo!!!!

Der Preuße 11 Dec, 2017 @ 2:35pm

Pat Fenis 20 Jun, 2017 @ 10:00am 
Thank you!
Kryo  [author] 20 Jun, 2017 @ 9:59am 
Updated for 1.22!
theNeorax 18 Jun, 2017 @ 2:50am 
Please Update this one! Cant start my games with it :(
Pat Fenis 15 Jun, 2017 @ 10:23am 
Doesn't seem to work anymore with the 1.22 update. Love your mods by the way!
Kryo  [author] 15 May, 2017 @ 2:44pm 
For anyone interested in fraktur / blackletter map fonts: I released a "Fraktur Map Fonts Pack" containing 6 different map fonts, two of them also have alternative versions in an optional folder. You can get it in my download thread [forum.paradoxplaza.com] on paradoxplaza.
Der Preuße 24 Apr, 2017 @ 2:59pm 
Can we please have white version of this?
LJR 8 Apr, 2017 @ 7:29am 
Alright thank you, will try
Kryo  [author] 7 Apr, 2017 @ 6:42am 
@ljr2530: You'd have to edit the gui files of Bigger UI. The easiest way to do this is typing "debug_info" into the console then hover over the element you want to change. The debug info text will tell you the file and the line you need to edit. You will probably have to increase the value of "width=xxx"
Save the changes, then type "reload topbar.gui" (for instance) to make the changes instantly visible ingame.
LJR 7 Apr, 2017 @ 5:45am 
Question for based @Kryo:

I'm using Bigger UI and this font is too large to fit in some boxes:
When at 200 relations it appears as "..."
When +20000 sailors it appears below the box
When 200 relations with your subjects it appears below the box

Is there anything I can do? I love this font, but Bigger UI is a must for me :^(
G.Strategos 15 Feb, 2017 @ 6:59am 
Hey @Kryo could you make a similar one for CK2 ???
Cheers
Clonk 12 Feb, 2017 @ 12:03pm 
Schön zu sehen dass Frakturschrift auch ein wenig Beachtung bekommt! Kannst du eine ähnliche Mod für HoI4 machen? Das würde Kaiserreich den letzten Schliff geben.

@Count Flandy trust me you dont have to be dyslexic to not be able to read this
Count Flandy 11 Feb, 2017 @ 3:01am 
Great mod! Too bad as a dyxlexic I can't read a thing this mod has. :mortis:
kerschi 10 Feb, 2017 @ 1:42pm 
Hab den Mod abonniert, er wird im Launcher aber nicht angezeigt.
GloriouSin♪ 10 Feb, 2017 @ 6:04am 
A mod for people who want to get even more frustrated, now you not only don't understand what is happening, you now LITERALLY do not understand what is happening ;p
фокстрот 10 Feb, 2017 @ 4:51am 
@Kryo I know that, what i meant in my comment was that you should make a separate mod with the "Nazi font", such as this one:

http://www.1001fonts.com/blankenburg-font.html

It definitely does not fit with EUIV time frame, but it would be nice to have it as well.
Kryo  [author] 10 Feb, 2017 @ 4:47am 
The Nazis actually put a ban on Fraktur fonts during WWII (January 1941), ordering that Antiqua fonts be used in all official communication, on street signs, in school books, and so on.

http://alphahistory.com/pastpeculiar/1941-nazis-ban-jewish-fonts/

So it's not just anachronistic for the EUIV time frame, but also wrong to associate Fraktur fonts with the Third Reich, as Fraktur fonts had been used for printed texts in Germany since before the 1600s.
фокстрот 10 Feb, 2017 @ 4:33am 
Amazing! I have to agree with Lorenzo dei Medici, please, make a german ww2 propaganda font mod (Blankenburg font for example)
Lorenzo 9 Feb, 2017 @ 9:34am 
make a german ww2 propaganda font

@Kryo you're a god amongst men. Thanks fam, outstanding work as always.

@Sophia Makoto
Make sure that in EU:IV is synced with the steam cloud, right click EU:IV in library, click properties, then in properties go into the updates tab, and check the bottom to see if sync is enabled for steam cloud, hope this helped/worked.
Kryo  [author] 7 Feb, 2017 @ 3:42pm 
@TristanBomb: Coming soon. Not just one..
SynthRose 7 Feb, 2017 @ 11:55am 
It would be nice to have a map-only version, without changing the interface text.
Kryo  [author] 7 Feb, 2017 @ 9:14am 
@Mike & Sammy, Ja das stört mich auch ein wenig, aber es lässt sich leider nicht ändern.
Mike & Sammy 7 Feb, 2017 @ 3:34am 
Super! Eine echte Bereicherung für das Spiel. Lediglich die Ordinal- (römischen) Zahlen hinter Titeln (Elisabeth II. , Henry VIII. etc) sind etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig. Egal, bleibt definitiv mein Favorit unter den Font-Mods.
