An app for installing the fontRedirect plugin, and selecting fonts using a GUI.

fontInstaller reads fonts in ux0:data/font/. And it reads up to 256 font files before stopping.

Installation

Add fonts to ux0:data/font/, which can be either .otf or .ttf.

Install the VPK file, open it and wait for the plugin to be installed.

User guide

Open the app, select a font and press start, then your enter button (Circle/Cross).

Your Vita should restart with this new font, and will keep this font unless you boot without plugins or change font.

Notes:

Your config.txt is backed up to ux0:data/font/backup.txt, so if this corrupts it for some reason your config will be there.
The current font name is stored in ux0:data/font/config.txt so you can change that directly.

Controls

Cross - Select font

Square - Change font scale

L/R - Change page

Triangle - Info

Start - Restart from anywhere in the app

Select - Remove fonts (still leaves plugin)

Known issues

Currently, the fontRedirect plugin causes certain games to crash on openening them (Gravity Rush, Ys 8 JP English Patched and Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 for example), there is no fix for it, just uninstall the plugin if you come across any issue.

Changelog

v1.0

First Release.
Certain games still broken.

-Currently, the <code>fontRedirect</code> plugin causes certain games to crash on openening them (Gravity Rush, Ys 8 JP English Patched and Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 for example) and I wont be able to fix this for a while. This is not permanent, just uninstall the plugin. If you manage to fix this, submit a pull request and I will accept it! :)
