Problem with danish translation....

Post by Gof.dk »

Ive stumbled upon a problem with the font used on the newspapers,
it has a problem showing the danish letters ø and æ. Ø dosent show
at all and æ has some kind of artifacts at the sides making it to wide. There is no problem with the letter å, just æ and ø.

The normal gamefont, menus, gui and stuff dosent have this problem
it shows æ,ø and å without any glitches.

Is this something that can be fixed? Or should i replace every
occurance of æ and ø with the corrosponding (But old) ae and oe.

This is a known bug from TTD. The letters ø, Ø and æ are not in the newspaper font. But I have already included them in openttd.grf, now someone only has to map these sprites to the letters.

In other words: Should be fixed in the near future.

ae and oe looks stupid, besides look at this
sukkerrør != sukkerroer. This one is ok
replacing ø->oe
sukkerroer != sukkerroer
now you got a problem :P

I know ae and oe are useable, but they also have problems like this :wink:

It's ok i wont use the ø -> oe, as dominik81 said that eventually the æ
and ø bug will be fixed :) I just use æ and ø in my translation and then
we will have to live with a bit fault newspaper until it gets fixed :)

Good news! Nordic characters are now fixed in current SVN and will work in the upcoming nightly build.
