[color=#006400]Screenshot[/color] - you can notice the upscaling artifacts that blur the edges of the original letters giving them a different, more slim, appearance[color=#006400] (check the small "e" letter).[/color] HOWEVER, this (un)intended artifact also lets the letters breathe while the reworked ones look a bit crowded).

If you're satisfied with the game's default fonts upscaled by Dolphin (thye do have a few artefacts) then don't waste your time downloading this pack.

[color=#006400]Notes[/color]
0. I haven't played the MP Trilogy that much with the new files so i have no idea if there are any issues (i fixed the bulky ingame textures from few days ago)
1. I have no idea what some of the characters should be... i either made an educated guess, went alone with some antialiased upscaled version of the original i then tried to reproduce it or simply rounded the edges of the hard edges upscale.
2. There are about 3 or 4 fonts used (2 of them being variations of the other 2 fonts, reason i sorta used about 3 fonts in the end). I kept the right angle edges for the ingame font but went with rounded edges for all the other fonts.
3. I used some filed dumped by someone on this forum so i don't think anything's missing, but if it does... dump them and send them to me so i can release the HD versions.

4. Not sure IF and when i'm gonna rework the rest of the HUD because i'm, rly rly busy IRL, also juggling the Rayman 3 and Super Paper Mario textures. I managed to dump them all for the new format keeping the folder structure, i must search for some unreleased files as well, from 2 years ago. I noticed the Paper Mario Thousand Year Door is coming along nicely so hopefully the same guys are gonna jump on the SPM one (since the two games share a lot of textures).

I can provide you with some messy EPS files if you wanna create a few font files from the 3-4 fonts that i made (i really don't have the time, i only made a font file for Rayman 3 if anyone is interested). I think lots of people would want the fonts from the Metroid Prime Trilogy (even some youtubers, given the whole MP4 fuss) but no one took the time to create them. You should make a Rounded and Sharp edge variation for all of the fonts.

Hmm interesting.

Could you please upload some comparison shots so that I can see what all you've done without having to download it and all?

Amazing work, now I wish this could be converted to work on the GC ver. of MP1 and MP2E as well. Big Grin

Added all the font files for Metroid Prime 3.

I noticed that MP1 and MP2 have some extra font files that MP3 doesn't use. These files use the same font tables in this pack but they letters have different colors which means anyone can use the existing pack to create the HD version of those font files that are missing.

Posted this for a small bump because i have a request:
If someone's willing to play through both MP1 and MP2 (the Metroid Prime Trilogy version) and dump all the font files, let me know so i can turn them into HD fonts.

Here's a collection of fonts that I gathered a couple of years ago.
