Clan FJA Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 OpenJK for Windows, last bluid (16 february I think) Tested on Windows XP. Bug : ingame, I can't write any letter with the hat : ^ (example : ô, ê, î, û, â) It does not work : I have ^o, ^a, ... I think english would get a better color system but other languages need the hat. Thanks you Link to comment
ensiform Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Unfortunately it is the way that it is because SDL does not support it. You would need an actual keyboard with these characters on them directly, to support it until SDL2 changes the way it handles text input. Link to comment
Clan FJA Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 :cry: ok thanks you... and I suppose that SDL is very important (SDL2.dll) for OpenJK... What is SDL ? I type "SDL" in the forum research but there is nothing. Link to comment
ensiform Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 It is the library that has been used the entire time on Linux and MacOSX. We just unified the codebase to also use it on Windows. It handles window creation, opengl setup, and also keyboard/mouse/joystick/sound events are handled through SDL. http://libsdl.org/ Link to comment
Clan FJA Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 ok thanks you Link to comment
Xycaleth Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Out of curiosity, what keyboard layout are you using? Link to comment
ensiform Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 All of these are probably related. https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2834https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2853https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2071https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2748 Link to comment
Clan FJA Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 I use a french keyboard. I must type ^ and then I type the letter (o), and it does ô Link to comment
Futuza Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I use a french keyboard. I must type ^ and then I type the letter (o), and it does ôCurious. I don't know french, but how abominable is it to just type o? I mean generally in a game you don't use proper grammar/spelling and people let laziness slide. I mean if I say h0th people usually get what I'm saying, even though the letter is wrong. (Not trying to make excuses/justify this, just curious how repulsive this is to try a solution like that?)

Clan FJA Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 I don't understand you : To type o, I just press o. To type ô, I press ^ then o It is not more abominable than the ' and e to make é with the international qwerty keyboard. On french Azerty board, we have direct key for é, à, ç, è, and ù. There is only the letter with ^ which need to press ^ before the letter. The fact is not that people don't understand me if I use o in place of ô, the fact is that I am used to press ^+o and I type r^ole in place of rôle.It will take me some time to change my practice.

Xycaleth Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Oh! Does typing é using the azerty keyboard work? Link to comment
Clan FJA Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 yes I just press é Link to comment
