App Details
This is a plugin that safely replaces (in RAM only) the system font, by a custom one from the SD card. It affects the Wii U Menu font, so it's ideal for complementing a custom Wii U Menu theme.
The NAND is NOT modified in any way, so you do not need to worry about bricks.
It also comes with the System Font Replacer Helper app, that automatically converts ".bps" patches into ".ttf" fonts, in the SD card.
For more detailed information and usage instructions, see the project page: https://github.com/dkosmari/System-Font-Replacer
If you get a custom font in the form of a .bps patch, to be applied to one of the system fonts, you can use the System Font Replacer Helper to easily convert them.
Simply put your .bps patches in SD:/wiiu/fonts/, and run the Helper app. It will then automatically convert all .bps patches in that folder into .ttf fonts.
Changelog
1.2
Plugin changes:
Fonts are now loaded on demand, instead of during plugin initialization. This reduces the chance of conflicts with other plugins, due to using large custom fonts, because they are loaded after the plugins.
Custom fonts are reloaded every time a game or app starts; there's no need to reboot the console to change the font.
The Aroma plugin menu is no longer affected by the custom font.
Helper app changes:
Only minor code cleanup, no functionality changed.
1.1.4
Plugin changes:
None.
Helper app changes:
Added support for other controllers.
Button to export system fonts changed to "+".
1.1.3
Plugin changes:
Minor code cleanup.
Helper app changes:
Can now export the system fonts to the SD card, to be more convenient for users that want to merge a custom font with a system font (like CafeStd.ttf).
1.1.2
Plugin changes:
None
Helper app changes:
Fixed a boundary check, that was rejecting perfectly valid .bps patches.
