Problem with Special character

Hi, i did some translation in french on esohead and esohead markers but i have a problem with special character. If i type an "é" for exemple in the addon source, the client doesnt recognize this character. Is someone know how i can add a special character? I tried with é or &#233, it didnt work.

If you use the actual character (not the alt-code) you need to make sure your file is saved with UTF-8 encoding. Otherwise, it may be that the font displayed in game does not support that specific character.

You can use codes instead of letters, for example "é" = \195\169.

For more codes see: http://www.utf8-chartable.de/unicode...le.pl?utf8=dec

I suggest using an editor like Notepad++ that supports UTF-8 without BOM.

If the font you are using does not have the character for the codes in file, you may also have to use a custom font for that. Saving your text in utf-8 format is just one part. You also need a font to show it.

Thoses strings are not handled by ESO game, you cannot use them.

The strings the game handles are :

Code:
!\"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|} ~¡£¤¦§©«-®°²³´µ¶·»½¿
ÀÁÂÄÆÇÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÑÒÓÔÖ×ÙÚÛÜßàáâäæçèéêëìíîïñòóôöùúûüÿŸ¥
For specialists, we got the full Latin base, and some chars of Latin-1
After, there're too rare to be noticed

If you want them, you need to make some noise about portuguese/brazilian players on official forums.
