# WiiUBFFNTtoUnityFNT

 Converts Wii U's BFFNT to Unity's Bitmap Font format.

 

## How to Use

1. Download the release

2. Run the file and select your BFFNT File

   - The converted .fontsettings file will be alongside the BFFNT File.

3. Drag the .fontsettings file into your Unity Project

4. Extract the texture from the BFFNT file using a method from your choosing and add it alongside the .fontsettings file.

5. Create a material in Unity and set its shader to `GUI/Text Shader` (You can also make your own)

6. Select the font in Unity and drag the Material into the `Default Material` slot.

7. Done!

You can now use this font anywhere in your project.

## Notice

The FontSettings file will only display the Main Texture of the material without shader effects.

If you want the shader to modify the text, add the Material into the `Material` slot of the Legacy Text GameObject

## TODO

- Handle multiple texture sheets (Might have to combine them extenally)

- Handle multiple character maps. (Implemented but untested with current resources)
