Asian language Support
 

Hi,

would it be possible to add support for Asian languages like japanese, chinese, korean, ..?
Because you can't write the symbols in graal

Yeah, lets bring the gold farmers to Graal, maybe it'll get the player count up a bit.

Why does the title make me laugh? :[

Hmm, the biggest problem is that Graal does not support UTF-8 I don't think. If it did, then it would pretty much automatically support asian script.

just learn english






i did not just say that :o

You can't write symbols in general on Graal. How many Asian players are there really on Graal? I know some people who have "Japan" but they're only American japanese-wannabes.

I'm Asian. Filipino, actually, so I guess that doesn't really count.

I think asian languages work fine as long as you talk with people having the same language, but mixed languages are not working right now.

language converter would be nice, if it was implemented. Or a new system for Asian speakers only: Asian Graal.

Oooooo

When Graal gets more members throughout the world, do like most games:
Have a different system and client altogether to not have confusion.

I'm not talking about ethnicity, I'm talking about people in Asia (East Asia in this case) playing Graal.

well the problem is that i cant even input e.g. hiragana symbols into the chatbar o.ô

Hmmm strange. Is it working when you start Graal with the "-opengl" option ?

Heh, maybe its the same issue with the "^" character? On a german keyboard, you have to press it twice to get two of them, or only once and then space to get one of them. In v4, you had to press twice to get one of them, and since v5, they dont work anymore :D

nope, can't input anything while in input mode "hiragana"

+ when i input hiragana @ rc it will have some weird symbols and some a-Z or other symbols in the line but no hiragana :P

Adding support for UTF-8 would be nice as long as it does not slow other improvements down.
