There were no "clean" cracks available, and the cracked copiesĬirculating all had incorrect overworld monster spawn rates. Ultima III on the Apple II used to be problematic, as for a long time, Sound card support - something rare on the system. This time, as with previous Ultimas, I'll play theĪpple II original, which features ingame music through Mockingboard Standard for decades, and still seen today in games like Larian'sĭivinity series, the retro-styled Nox Archaist, and Pokémon.įirst and only time I played Ultima III was over 15 years ago,Įmulating the Amiga version, which at the time I had believed was the It had a cohesive world, a coherent plot,Īnd codified a formula for party-based open world RPGs that would be Often felt like they were cobbled together from elements of a geeky

Just look at the "产品" on the bottom left, Windows makes the upper 口 in the 品 painfully short in height. However, in 100% scale, it provides fixes when Windows messed up with fonts in some cases when it purposefully fit the strokes into pixels.įont rendered on Vivaldi is thin, not equal stroke width, with jagged curves. It's suffice to say that MacType will recovered the font rendering for Windows in 200% scale. I have another example of Microsoft Yahei font being drastically better on 200% with MacType but I couldn't find it at the moment. This approach apparently ruined every diagonal strokes like 丿 and 丶, making those strokes even fainter.

MS Gothic has a very large character design, but on the first line of paragraph, 口 from "口周辺" is not reaching the the height it supposed to do, because of Window's approach of fitting that stroke into a line of pixels.

Left: AppleWin | Right: Chromium | 15px MS Gothic on 200% system scale Left: AppleWin (Safari for Windows) | Right: Chromium | 12px PingFang SC on 200% system scaleĪs you can clearly see, Apple's font rendering makes every glyph clear enough while ensuring every stroke has the same weight, while Chromium, relying on Windows's font rendering makes the font jagged (stroke width varies), baseline not level (遵守 on the 3rd last line, component 辶's bottom is way up) The antialiasing could do its job without relying the heavily hinted result. On a low DPI settings (130), IMO under normal font sizes (>=10pt) the font has enough pixel realestate to behave like what it was designed. Windows's font rendering tends to fit glyph strokes into pixels (tint). This tool is more important in Chinese/Japanese/Korean environment as CJK glyphs have more strokes per character as compared to Latin languages.
