Letters in ETQW

(HalF-DeaD) #1

I would like to know if Unicode UTF-8 (or some else system?) will be implemented in ETQW so everyone whos native language is NOT English, can type with their characters like č,ć,đ,š,ž in Croatian.

The game uses UCS2 for all its printed text. You should be fine :slight_smile:

as long as i can use these letters.
‘p’ ‘w’ ‘n’ ‘t’ and ‘l’ ‘o’ ‘l’

go nuts, that’s what bad word filters are for :lol:

(Grem-Gen) #5

Also something like this: GΞΠΞTX?

(Lanz) #6

Great news, I’m tired of having to replace å ä ö with a and o.

Can the game automatically switch “viola” to “voila”?

Sure, if they licence Microsoft’s Proofing Tools! :wink: Just give me the word SD and I’ll make it happen! :slight_smile:

what if anyone would want to say “viola”?

(Snoofer) #10

what characters are allowed to use in the name?

(ayatollah) #11

Judging by people’s talk about registering their name with the pre-order, I think it is only English characters, upper and lower-case, and spaces. But I may be wrong.

Koliko ja znam, samo engleska abeceda.

(ayatollah) #13

Yes that is what I said! For all I know, they just use the English alphabet! No need to write in Croatian.

BTW I got posts deleted for being in Irish, yet there are many people coming on and posting in foreign languages…not pleased.

Theres a whole thread started in french and youre complaining about a 6 word post in croatian…

(ayatollah) #15

Yes I know and my comment wasn’t directed at you, but at SD admin… You make us Irish feel sad :frowning:

(KAGE) #16

i thought the irish spoke english… :S

(ayatollah) #17

Racist… :stuck_out_tongue:

(murka) #18

well ET had something like this in ETPRO, and i liked it very much, as in Estonian there are õ and ö but if you replace it with o somebody might not understand, ah actually that was no problem but the problem was when i wrote them the characters wouldnt be shown, and that lead to some misunderstanding.

Flesh, vidi se onda da neznas dovoljno. :slight_smile:

what if anyone would want to say “viola”?

To use a line from MS programming manual:
“Why would everyone want to say “viola”? That’s a remote possibility and we won’t consider it. Next item!”

I still dont see this in demo… Why it still isn’t implemented?
