Message: [quote author=Marvin link=msg=52519 date=1361735151] I'm currently trying to [url=https://www.systemshock.org/index.php?topic=4581.0]improve the german translation[/url] but I cannot get the main menu to work. The umlauts don't display corectly, not even if the original OEM850 encoding is used. The .fon files here don't help either as the menu still functions even if the font.crf and all .fon files are deleted, which means that System Shock gets the appropiate files from somewhere else. Somewhere I don't know. Any ideas? Edit: Ah, got it, it's metafont.fon in intrface.crf. The special characters are just copied from the basic ASCII characters without actually doing anything with them. I'll try to solve it, although I'm not very much into ShockED (read: I've never done anything with it). Edit2: Okay, converted the font to bmp with the Palette1.pal from intrface.crf but that palette apparently specifies the same colours for background/transparency and character border box: [img width=324 height=384]http://i.imgur.com/zMJQjz4.png[/img] How am I supposed to edit this? The "ss" has to be changed to the narrower "ß". Edit3: Ok, whatever palette I chose, the result is always the same: Blue, garish colours (instead of grey) without transparency: [img width=750 height=468]http://s1.directupload.net/images/130224/z28n3f4p.png[/img] I'm pretty sure this task is considered trivial by experienced DromEDers. Could anyone push me in the right direction? Edit4: Nevermind, solved it, the font should have been monochrome all along. [/quote]
