The latest version should fix this (0.10.109).

Thanks a lot for all your effort Ze_PilOt, unfortunately now a new error occurs:

**FAF Username:** pre-login

**FAF Version:** 0.10.108

**FAF Directory:** C:\ProgramData\FAForever

**FA Path:** None

**Home Directory:** C:\Users\FANNY\Documents

**Stacktrace:**
{{{
Traceback (most recent call last):

}}}

I guess there must be some problem with my config, I just can't figure out what. I've also tried installing the package with my anti-virus unactivated, but I just don't know what else I should test...

Should be "fixed" in the latest version of the lobby.

I really wish I could give you any piece of information about my system fonts, but I have never changed anything about it, I have not even added any special font to my system, only original fonts with original configs on original windows 8 64 and windows 7 32 (both France-French version, I've tried switching to US-English and same result).

I've tried modifying windows configs for fonts and no combination helped.

I've tried your attached files, same result.

I have to say that faf worked several months ago (sorry I haven't played the game in ages and I don't remember when precisely), on my windows 7 computer.

I'm extremely suprised that this problem doesn't appear to be more common as it happened on both my PCs...

Well this has something to do with fonts, but unless you give me more informations about your system font, I can't do much.

In your FAF install directory, there is a mpl-data folder.
ie.

Code:: c:\Program Files (x86)\Forged Alliance Forever\mpl-data\

by default.

There are two files and a font folder.

Try editing
matplotlibrc
matplotlib.conf

focusing on the fonts parameters, until it works.

Here is some files that should work better than the one packaged with the installer.

Same problem here, on several computers (windows 7 and 8 updated), seems to be a major problem.

No font scaling nor custom dpi in use.

Sadly, I can't help you with that issue, you will have to do some googling :

https://www.google.be/search?q=No+SFNT+name+table

Please post the solution if you find any. Seems related to fonts. (maybe you are using some font scaling option in windows, or custom dpi?)

I'll wait for the next patch at worst. Taking a break from FA won't be a bad thing.

This is sadly beyond the control I have on the current code.
I will try to investigate, but if I can't myself replicate the problem it will be hard.

I will bypass the lib if it doesn't load on the next lobby version.

From what I can see from the other thread, inside the folder .matplotlib that is created when the game start, a folder inside of it should be created: fontList.cache, but I get nothing of that.

There's very few info on this type of error. Most of what I have found is about programming directly in Python... and even there, almost no info and nothing that I can use.

The only page I've found that 'could' give some clues.

No idea. Try googling, it seems related to fonts.
