Summary | 0003246: TrueType: Some dwarves' names are cut off at diacritics, other diacritics are turned into blocks | |||||
Description | Preface: I've tried out three fonts, they all display the same way. Dwarves are appearing with names such as "D" on the [u] screen. When this dwarf is examined [v]-[Enter], the name is fully spelled out in the description screen (which is still using the tileset). The names are being truncated at certain letters using diacritics. I'm trying to see if there's a consistent character turning into an endl; sort of thing, and which are turning into blocks. http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/8720/dftext3.png [^] In the screenshot, "D"'s full name should be Dôbar Godenast. Diacritical marks causing blocks: ï ì å è Diacritical marks causing names and professions to be cut off: ô Just based on that bit of science, I think the o-circumflex is the one causing the names to be cut off. Can't find any other characters causing it. | |||||
Additional Information | This seems to be true in another fort I saved earlier but did not continue playing. | |||||

Actually, this is more consistent than I thought it was originally. In TrueType mode, the font displays no letters using diacritical marks properly. I have opened two saves and seen the same thing, which I somehow missed before. Another note: I put the severity as minor because it wasn't breaking the game for me, and the names were still accessible in the status screen, which isn't using the TrueType feature. |

OK, I decided to see what else this affected. Now I'm causing the game to crash in the "prepare carefully" menus by creating fortress names randomly, and intentionally with the o-circumflex character. Crashing a lot in this window. I think I'll also try a fresh install without TrueType to make sure that's what's causing it. Edit: Turned off TrueType in the init of this install, the game functions fine, no crashes in the embark screen, proper name display in game. Fresh install replicated everything. Definitely TrueType mode causing these things for me. |

It's almost certainly a failure to translate the text from codepage 437 (OEM/DOS) to the character set the font actually uses. |

or the ttf file could be missing the characters |
(0013395) Quietust (reporter) 2010-10-17 09:08 |
The TTF file is definitely not missing the accented characters - a quick check using charmap on Windows makes this plainly obvious. |

Signed (char) overflow in the cp437-to-unicode mapping table. Fixed. |
