Some help with accent removal.
« on: December 21, 2008, 02:55:31 am »
I was about to download the application and text file from http://www.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/User:Jackard/Accent_Removal . Then I discover that the text file is 404'd! Noes!

Does anyone have the text file? =)

These are the language text files for dwarven, human, elven and goblin languages.

Why would you want to remove the accents? Seems like non-accentual language speakers can't cope with them (oh yes, I mean you, Americans :P).

Because some of the accented letters are used as other objects so if you replace them with something more real with a tileset you get broken names.
P.S. Who's an american in this thread?

Even if you "remove" the accents it still shows them (at least with the mayday mod).

Hmm.. I simply suspect that most people here are American.

Userpay, you can't see anything which is not existant :).
Do you mean some specific names which are still broken even with these files I've posted? This may be an issue with the names (I could miss a single name or two). If it was so, tell me which words are broken still.

Uncapitalised names bug me.

I am trying to make chickens lay bees as eggs. So far it only produces a single "Tame Small Creature" when a hen lays bees.

Honestly at the time, I didn't see what could go wrong with crowding 80 military Dwarves into a small room with a necromancer for the purpose of making bacon.
