series of small screencaptures of said stages, next to each other in fnt format, just like when you make font but instead put series of those small screencaps, so "a" would mean this stage, "b" that stage, "c" that yet other stage and so on, till all the character in your font used.
thx i really need more ideas to come or some screenshots on how to do it and how to make my own font??
get a font editor program.make a screenshots of your stages, scale down the screenshots into a uniform thumbnail size, make a new blank file, put the screenshots next to each other in one line, try to maintain hard edges avoid antialiasing (by using "nearest neighbor" when resizing)change mode to indexed, give base color palette on the bottom right corner as usualsave it as pcxopen the pcx in font editor or font factorythen specify the height and width of each character in your case each screenshotlet say your screenshot is scaled to 80x60 pixelsthen you have to write down a list like this:[Map]A 0 80 > means character "A" start in pixel 0 from the left, and font width 80B 80 80C 160 80D 240 80E 320 80and so on for every letter uppercase, lowercase, number, other character ?!#$%^&*() so if in the screenpack you use that font, and you type "A" then it will show the 1st screen capture, and so onbut there must be a code to link them with the stage selection so it will change everytime you browse over each stage, I don't make screenpack so other people know that better.
