Diacritics in Map Names secion ?

Recommended Posts

Anyway of using diacritics in the class names of the map config.cpp ?

eg: 'thung lũng chết' instead of 'thung lung chet'

Yeah, check it out: CfgNames.

However, Visitor 3 does not seem to support it. I suggest placing the key points in Visitor with the key points feature, and then manually copying the result with the correct position from the mapname.hpp into your own include file for the names class and writing in the name with the diacritics. The hpp file with the names has to be encoded in UTF-8.

Whether the ArmA 2 fonts set has the necessary glyphs is a different issue. Obviously, there's the basic Latin alphabet as well as Cyrillic in there. There's acutes, graves, circumflexes and diaereses, and I've found there's also macrons (came in handy for transliterated Persian). I don't know about tildes on all vowels, nor ogoneks, but you can give it a try.

thanks for reply cctoide,

I will try this when I get home next week.

Thanks cctoide, :cheers:

Have it working.

As you thought "I don't know about tildes on all vowels", some are missing but what I have is better than before.
