Hi, is there a way to change font type on a fly in TGE during game play?

Depends - are you trying to do it in scripting, or, in the C++ side of things?

I would like to do it in the C++ because I don't know much about scripting.

You can do some pretty nifty things with the font renderer.

Just playing around I managed to have it write everything diagonally across the screen with a few simple changes.

This was awhile ago though so I can't remember much to be much help to you. The font rendering goodies are mostly located in /dgl/
