Changing draw_text font

[bolmin 34]

Hi, I am currently looking for a way to change the font when drawing text. I know there is a library for that in the downloads section on this site, but in doesn't work for some reason. I was looking for a native or something like HUD::SET_TEXT_FONT but there is nothing like that, so I am curious how to do it with natives.

       void drawstring(std::string string, float X, float Y)
        {
            std::string Template = "<FONT FACE='$title' COLOR='#%04X'>" + string + "</FONT>";
            const char* InsertTemplate= MISC::_CREATE_VAR_STRING(10, "LITERAL_STRING", _strdup(Template.c_str()));
            HUD::_DISPLAY_TEXT(MISC::_CREATE_VAR_STRING(42, "COLOR_STRING", 0, InsertTemplate), X, Y);
        }

 

this is how you draw text with font, just change the $title to any other font names, can be found using open iv
