Hello...

The fonts in my game Age of Empires Gold Edition is being all weird... kind of like what it would look like under 256 color font when it's suppose to be thousands... Is there anyway to fix this at all?

Disable Age2 (and Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds if you have it) in the Silk control panel. That's the best guess I can give without any more details.

Well... I wasn't using those programs under silk... and when I did, it's still the same messed up font with weird colors.... I guess I'll just have to wait for a new patch for the game... if they ever make one that is...

Silk automatically anti-aliases the fonts for all apps unless you tell it not to. Since Age2 runs in 256 color mode, Silk will anti-alias the font, and the edges will take on nasty color fringes. You have to specifically tell Silk to exclude Age2. Is that what you've tried? If so, you're going to have to provide more details about your setup, like the OS version and Age2 version you're using for starters.

I'm using OS X 10.2.5 and the Age2 version is 1.0.5. The program wasn't even in silk though...
