Baldur's Gate Font
« on: June 01, 2004, 12:12:15 PM »
If anyone has, or knows where to find, the font that is used in the Baldur's Gate games, please, if you could, post the URL here or email me the file.  I'd greatly appreciate it.  :)

The one used in the title or the one for normal text?

Preferably the title.  The font "Sherwood" is very close, but it's not an exact match.  :(

Hmm, well, it's very close, like the Sherwood font was, but it's not *exactly* the same.  You can especially tell when you compare the capital "G" on the box to the font. 

But, oh well... close enough.  :)

This site might help:

I remember seeing a very similar type font in there, but laziness prevents me from digging through thousands of fonts. ;)
