please note that [textextruded] was only introduced into Gem because of FTGL (the old fontrendering library used was GLTT which had no such thing as extruded text). so the answer is: in order to have [textextruded] working, you must compile Gem with FTGL; there have never been another way to get extruded text. > > Whats the reason for this grand change?
