[1.15.2][Solved] Problem with diacritic

fcelon · September 16, 2020

Hi,

when language file in my mod contains characters with diacritic like š č ř or ž, those characters render as ? in game. However, the same characters render just fine in vanilla texts and in chat.

cs_cz.json:

Does anyone know can I solve this problem?

mmm i don't have knowledge on the matter, but i took a look inside the vanilla cs_cz.json and i see they are using a lot of formatting codes which look like that: \u00e1..i believe those are doing the job to get the special characters you need. Take a look into the vanilla file

fcelon · September 16, 2020

Thakns you. I have been unable to locate vanilla cs_cz.json in my computer, but replacing problematic characters with codes seems to fix the issue.

Also, don't just rip art resources and pass them around, that's no fun.

That link breaks the Minecraft EULA/TOS, and is most likely very illegal. Do not recommend this in the future, or there will be worse repercussions.

The actual fix for this problem would likely be to change the encoding of the language json file. UTF-8 BLE does not encode these characters well, but the game is equipped to handle more sophisticated encodings. UTF-16 should work.

Oh well, i was not aware of that...i mean, those files are literally on a public github page that anyone can consult...its not like i ripped those myself and then distributed them..i just linked an existing resource on the web. But i understand what the problem could be, so i apologize if i broke the rules. I will remember next time. Thank you for letting me know that.

That repository breaks several copyright and EULA laws and has been reported numerous times.

Github's inaction does not make it okay.

I guess i have to thanks again because i was not aware even of that..

I don't know what "UTF-8 BLE" is.

Apologies, i meant UTF-8 BE, the default encoding of most modern text editors.

There are well known problems in the standard Java libraries with reading / decoding these from a file on disk.

You're right about all the rest though

I'm assuming big-endian. But TBH, I thought the byte order was part of the UTF-8 spec. I've never seen it called UTF-8 BE.
