Myth font - Anyone know the name?

Post by **Melekor** » Sun May 23, 2004 4:26 pm

I'm building my own gui system for use with my upcoming myth editing tool. I'm skinning it in myth style and I thought it would be appropriate to use the same font that myth used, just to complete the look.

Does anyone know the name of the font used in myth?
Failing that, the name of a *very* similar font would also be appreciated.

Thanks,
Melekor

The font is called Hiroshige and it's commercial. You can buy it for about $20 if you look on Google.

Or maybe use the (free) morpheus, thats the font used to write "soulblighter" etc.

Magma text called Morpheus is very close... Never seen this Heroshige font...should look into that.

For what it's worth, the font used by Bungie was actually Mason from Emigre. (Emigre also made Modula Tall - The Marathon font)

You can typeset sentences in the font for free if you hit the red SET TEXT star on the right, but they add an annoying striped background, so it may not be entirely useful.
