#1 - Find your fonts.
There's a lot of places online where you can get new fonts, such as 1001fonts, Dafont or Open Foundry. It's up to you which one fits your desires.

You'll get a file .tff, open it and click 'Install'.



Additionally, you can search 'Fonts' on Windows to see which fonts you have already installed.
#2 - Go to your game files.


In your game's directory you'll see a folder called 'fonts'. With your font already installed, put that downloaded .tff into that folder and open 'gamefont.css' with a text editor.

You'll see this line: src: url(mplus-1m-regular.ttf);. Replace the brackets content with the name of your newly installed font (including file format).



This way, your project will automatically read this file as its default font.
#3 - If you're using YEP_CoreEngine
Some plugins can interfere with MV's default font system. For example: In YEP_CoreEngine's case you'll have change the plugin's parameters in order to get your new font working.



Some other plugins can cause various different problems, so always read their respective instructions.

That's it. Have a nice day! :)
