Placid Report post Posted September 14, 2004 good idea, but the smilies graphics need to be a lot lighter if ur gonna see them (according to the ss). They maybe ok in normal view Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fred_penner Report post Posted September 14, 2004 We need some non-smileys: like one that gives you the finger. We could call it a fingery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Enderoth Report post Posted September 14, 2004 I like and it gives the console-mode a much more better look - it nearly looks like the new forum here Good work waldi PS: A fingery would be nice too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waldi Report post Posted September 14, 2004 just posted the patch on berlios...don't forget to replace font.bmp in textures directory...and there's no option to disable it yet... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted September 14, 2004 We need an option to disable it, otherwise posting thigns such as code, for example, would suck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waldi Report post Posted September 14, 2004 uploaded new patch... can now be toggled with #display_smilies in console/el.ini Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted September 14, 2004 Great. I think it should be applied in the CVS, but currently disabled until we will provide an official fonts.bmp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Platyna Report post Posted September 15, 2004 uploaded new patch... can now be toggled with #display_smilies in console/el.ini I would be very mad if you wouldn't do it waldio! ;-D I bloody hate damn smileys in posts and messengers. ;-) And about font.bmp - I see there diactricts but I can't see polish ones and it makes me sad there are like 70 polish players active in game.

Guest Zeplin Report post Posted September 15, 2004 Then plat, Maybe you could contribute the work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Platyna Report post Posted September 15, 2004 Then plat, Maybe you could contribute the work. I am not a a programmer and I like current console as is. I can be sad if someone will implement something which makes interface less comfortable. Not everyone likes graphical icons instead of smileys, this is why every good program, like this forum, has option to turn it off and this is why I am not using instant messengers. I am trying contribute how I can if you haven't noticed. Regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placid Report post Posted September 15, 2004 I agree, i dont think its the most important of patches, but then again it is worth doing. On the contrary to teh banned 0n3na's point that some people dont like smilies, the argument is that some people DO like them. I personally dont, but i think this patch is worth doing.

Leeloo Report post Posted September 15, 2004 And about font.bmp - I see there diactricts but I can't see polish onesand it makes me sad there are like 70 polish players active in game. Take a look at font.bmp - it's easy to add new letters (I did the danish and german ones). You probably need to talk to Entropy though, I believe Poland is Latin2, and not Latin1? In that case, I don't know how he intends to handle different letters in different charsets with same "ascii"-value. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Platyna Report post Posted September 15, 2004 In Poland we use iso 8859-2 and win cp 1250. Well you suggest I can just add new chars to the end of these on the picture? I think it would be cool if all diactrics in latin alphabet could be added such as swedish, polish, french, german... Regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duran Report post Posted September 15, 2004 it would be better if a unicode font file would be used but given that we are talking about a portable client thats supposed to compile on more then one os that can be hard to pull of... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted September 15, 2004 We can't add Unicode to the game unless I modify half of the server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duran Report post Posted September 15, 2004 well i guess thats not an option then Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
