I bet if you put

That's strange, I did confirm that the font was working in program after renaming it, but I do remember the font renaming issue from way back now.

That is wild, never would've figured the font loading would affect all that. I've recompiled a Joust X EXE using your fix to test, just overwrite after unzipping v1.2

I know you've had some issues running my recent games that use the GLMax2D graphics driver. BlitzMax [ng] docs mention that it supports four graphics drivers GLGraphics, GLMax2D, D3D7, and D3D9, but I could only get GLMax2D and D3D9 to work on my Windo*snip*

That's what they get for specifically targeting homebrew, maybe they'll learn their lesson this time. The 'update' contains absolutely nothing in the way of features or improvements, it's a complete waste of time. Surely Nintendo has more important things *snip*
