Polish letters

by Marcin Zygmunt · in Torque Game Engine · 04/09/2005 (9:16 am) · 4 replies

Has someone tried to use polish letters in TGE? When I try to write them in the GUI editor, some are looking good, but the other are not what I wanted. When I write polish letters in a .gui script all of them are incorrectly displayed. Is there any way to do it?

You'll have to implement unicode support in the font renderer, or use a specialized Polish language font. We're working on getting Unicode support into the engine but it's not the fastest process in the world.

Sorry, I don't have any good leads off hand. There a post a while ago that had some sample code from a developer doing asian language support.

Many languages have ASCII fonts that display special characters appropriate to that language. IF so, it might be better to use one of those than to try to add Unicode support to the engine - a BIG change no matter how you slice it.
