1. Stores the filename from the table Parser into the font struct so we can lookup fonts via their filename.
2. Allow "+Special Character Font:" to specify the first entry with the same filename's special character index for their own special character index, provide a default if not, and allow the moddert to specify them manually, but do not override already recorded values if the default is picked in order to protect retail behavior.
3. Vectorize Special Character Indexes, so that we don't have a table limit that will randomly crash FSO based on what table you happened to write! Woohoo!
This is a minor follow-up to PR #2390. There are a few minor differences between untranslated strings and the internal strings in strings.tbl; this PR fixes them.
Since the original release of FS2, internal strings have been translated to their English entries in strings.tbl but external strings have not been translated to their English entries in tstrings.tbl. It appears that string translation was universal until it was disabled via a hack, probably due to FRED idiosyncrasies (see comment in `fred_init()`), and then not re-enabled for release. PR #2343 re-enabled it, but this turned out to have undesirable side-effects since many mods used incorrect XSTR indexes for external strings.
This PR restores the previous behavior and also cleanly separates localization into translated and untranslated modes. FRED will always run in untranslated mode. FSO will run in translated mode for all languages except English, where it will run in untranslated mode UNLESS the new option `$Use tabled strings for the default language` is enabled in game_settings.tbl.
Certain mods provide their own tstrings.tbl, but this runs into trouble when you localize data meant for one mod using a tstrings.tbl meant for another mod. See the Mantis ticket:
http://scp.indiegames.us/mantis/view.php?id=2942
and also the HLP post:
http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=85041.msg1716600#msg1716600
This PR adds an optional flag that will check the untranslated string against the "default language" translated string. The two strings should be identical. If they aren't, the code assumes there is a tstrings.tbl mismatch.
I modified the mission listing code to enable this check when localizing mission info (titles and descriptions), and to avoid adding the mission to the list if there is a mismatch. Fortunately, I think mission listing is the only place where this bug is likely to happen.
This adds support for displaying subtitles embedded in movie files. This
supports files with multiple subtitle streams where each stream contains
the subtitles for one language. When the movie file is opened, the
stream for the currently active language will be used and displayed.
This resolves one of the points mentioned in #1522.
This also depends on PR #1484.
This allows to use standard TrueType Fonts for text rendering in FSO. It uses the NanoVG library which provides the ability of drawing 2D shapes. This library is used for most 2D operations now and can also be used directly by using the PathRenderer class.
update hud_num_make_mono (& callers) to handle the font number
add partial support for specifying special char indexes for individual fonts
