Try dropping a copy of your Arial font into your EQ2 fonts folder.

Oh my god, I had this error when I installed XP a while ago and I could not find ANYTHING to fix it! I even reinstalled EQ2.
I'll try to see if I remember what I did, I'll get back to you if I find anything.

Code: Select all

r_font_ft 0
put that in eq2.ini
if eq2.ini doesn't exist, create it.
