Description

Summary

This mod fixes and extends the Font Renderer in Legacy versions of Minecraft by essentially backporting a newer version of the FontRenderer class (1.5.2 was used as the base in version 1; 1.12.2 is used as the base in version 2).

Details

In particular, the following bugs have been fixed and features have been added:

  • Fix the text width calculation and shadows when rendering non-ASCII characters
  • Change Font height to 9 instead of 8
  • Add support for glyphs/unicode characters
  • Add missing formatting and color codes

Installation

As a ModLoaderMP / Forge mod

This mod needs to be installed as a jar-mod. That means, you have to...

  1. Be sure to back up your minecraft.jar!
  2. Extract the content of the mod zip into the minecraft.jar file
  3. Delete the META-INF folder in there
  4. Overwrite any existing files when doing so!
  5. ???
  6. Profit!

As a Fabric mod

Just place the mod file in your mods folder :)

Issues

  • Some OptiFine versions have minor issues with Font Fixer installed (e.g., custom fonts do not work)
  • Some unicode characters could not be rendered - this has been fixed in version 2!
