Starmade | In game can't show full-width characters (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) But it works in setup window
Closed, FinishedPublic

Description

ok, now the language pack is working with the new dev build,
but chinese or japanese these full-width words can only show in launcher, in game will just be blank.
I think maybe it is not full-width words issue, but just lack of Font

schema changed the task status from In Queue (Game) to Open.

<Language Language="English" Version="0" fontnameorpath="MS PGothic" yOffsetStartSize="0" yOffsetDividedBy="1" yOffsetFixed="0">

can now be set in langauge files to specify a custom language.

Also yOffsetStartSize="0" yOffsetDividedBy="1" yOffsetFixed="0"

should be used to fix the vertical offset.

Keep in mind that the font has to be installed in order to use it (else it will default to the normal font). A font file can also be specified with a path relative to ./data/

I have replaced <Language Language="English" Version="0"> to
<Language Language="ChineseTraditional" Version="0" fontnameorpath="./data/font/arialuni" yOffsetStartSize="0" yOffsetDividedBy="1" yOffsetFixed="0">

in the pack.xml

and have put this

arialuni.ttf21 MBDownload
in ./data/font/

but still can't show the words, but now it is not empty,
now there are square boxes representing the words.

schema added a comment.EditedJan 15 2016, 4:46 PM

font name path currently includes ./data, and the file must be referenced with file-extension. so you will have to use fontnameorpath="font/arialuni.ttf"

Gamel added a comment.Jan 15 2016, 5:22 PM

This is even worst......
now only show english in setup window,
also no more square boxes in game, only english




Gamel added a comment.Jan 15 2016, 5:24 PM

but this is only osx at the moment, i can't test windows until monday when i go to work.
Or i can ask my players to test in windows tomorrow

schema added a comment.EditedJan 15 2016, 5:31 PM

the font doesnt affect the main menu window (its only for ingame). If that is in english, the game has loaded the english language file for some reason. Can you post the logs

Gamel added a comment.Jan 16 2016, 4:46 AM

i think i found the issue, but i don't know how to fix it

all fonts will not switch to the custom font. Also paths from ./ can now be use so you can bundle the font with the language. e.g. <Language Language="ChineseTraditional" Version="0" fontnameorpath="language/ChineseTraditional/arialuni.ttf">

(fixed issue where fonts werent loaded right on version 0.197.45)

lancake moved this task from Backlog / Unclassed to Confirmed fix on the Quality Assurance board.Apr 10 2017, 2:06 PM

-QA Testing-

Been confirmed fixed for a while now, I encountered a few places where characters didn't display properly but those are deprecated menus or things that have no real purpose such as the F2 detach mouse function, which displays it's text as squares.
