I have been trying to get some information to either make, or get made, a simple extension adding one language to the game. I am using 5e Ruleset, trying to add the language from the Ancients in Stargate. I am trying to add the font Anquietas (True Type) by Joseph Spicer (Updated)
from the website https://www.thescifiworld.net/fonts.htm to add it to my campaign. Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated! I have been searching for days, and there is very little if any information on this, and I am not a coder, so its been difficult!

Please help!

Try checking out these extensions. They do exactly what you are trying to do in adding a new font for the languages selection. See how its organized/structured.

The ext files are zip files, so you can extract and look at the contents just by changing the file extension to .zip.

I was able to get this to work. Due to copyright I cant post it with the font included. But if you want, you can add it yourself. Just copy the anquietas.ttf file into the TTF Fonts folder.

You are bloody awesome! Many many many thanks! This is for a private game with some friends with no money involved, so that part is all good! You are freaking amazing! I find this looks great for stuff carved in stone! so I wanted to use it :)
