Remember the Piraka font we saw back in October 2005? Ever wish you could type in it? Well now you can! Thanks to a font making program I discovered, I was able to assimilate the Matoran font and make Piraka font.

Download

Installation Instructions:
1) Save the font to anywhere
2) Copy it from where you saved it
3) Open your Control Pannel
4) Go to the folder called Fonts
5) Paste it there

It's really only good for font sizes over 25 so it will probably only be good for titles, but then again, who wants to read a novel written in Piraka font? wink.gif

Enjoy.

Thanks for posting this. I'll us it in my upcoming Piraka game (not the 3d one).

As for writing a novel, I was writing one in the Matoran font but got fed up with making up my own system because there's no punctuation.

Nice font. smile.gif When in bold, it works well at lower levels such as 18. However, I might suggest changing the punctuation - it's entirely different from the rest of the font, and some characters don't even exist, such as the apostrophe.

1) Okay, I've changed the punctuations that do work and I've made the letters fit closer together like they do in the Bionicle comic. To re-install the font, just follow the instructions in the first post, but delete the old version of the Piraka font before pasting the new one.

2) I tried to get those characters to work, but I don't think they do if you have an unregistered copy of the software.

Great idea! Looks very good, although for me, there is too little space between each character, so they overlap. Still very useful, thanks!

Very nice font indeed,SPIRIT. smile.gif I think you should ask the admins to put this to the Bzpower posting fonts. I like it very much.

Hmm...it seems that China has blocked Freewebs, as well as Geocities and Wiki...so in other words I can't download it. Mind if you post up a screenshot of how it looks like? That way I can give you some feedback.

I tried to download it, but it says that it's being used and can't be moved. What do I do?

Oh, thanks Biomech! Looks very accurate to what we've seen so far, SPIRIT, But you could make it a bit more bold. Otherwise, great job.

However, it is like the other font but instead of the circles there are hexxagons.

It looks great! But, the letters look a bit skinny. But, that's all.

Hmm, quite similar to the Original Mata-Nui font, but I can see the new Piraka-ness of it... Very nicely done... I always hated using fonts that took me 5 minutes to translate "The brown fox jumped over the lazy dog"... tongue.gif

Nicely done!

Looks great, SPIRIT. I'll probably download it when I make my Piraka MOCs... This way I'll have a fitting font. happy.gif
