All other display names are `SCP_string`, so make these `SCP_string` as well to be consistent and to allow arbitrary-length display names.
Also fix a few infelicities with German translation and the script API.
* SCPUI in-game language selector
* xstr support
* proper debug print format
* minor fixes
* Save the language as json data rather than an index into the languages array
* ext instead of id for clarity
* Do this more formally
* unused param
* add subfolder support to cfile
* sort files in VP archives before indexing them
* fix indexing of sub-subfolders
* remove unused 8B22K & 16B11K sound path types
* add more items to skip subfolder scanning
* fix windows build issues
* fix unit tests by allowing 0-byte files to be indexed
* fix file indexing on windows
* add test for cfile subfolders
* remove specific 'markup' and 'css' interface subfolders
They aren't directly referenced anywhere by pathtype and the new
subfolder code will continue to index and load files from them
* add player binds to list of always-root locations
* remove file-based localization support
An alternative is left in place for old fonts, as that was the only place
it appeared to be used.
This method of file localization conflicts with subfolder support however
so if it's needed in the future then changes to the subfolder code will
be necessary.
* add subfolder support to cf_find_file_location_ext()
* add subfolder tests for cf_find_file_location*()
* add shlwapi to needed win32 libs
* small bit of cleanup
* add subfolder support to cf_get_file_list()
* add tests for cfile subfolder lists
* report files that might be shadowed
* fix issue with lists when a filter is used
Also fixes discrepancy in older cf_get_file_list() when a sub path
is specified (should be used in all cases, not just glob).
* address review suggestions
One of my XSTR and localization fixes from last year did not account for the presence of custom languages. This PR uses the correct threshold and also adds a warning in case some mod really wants to define more than 6 additional languages.
This is a follow-up to #2390. Retail used a weird hybrid approach where internal strings were translated but external strings were not. This restores that behavior by adding another language, LCL_RETAIL_HYBRID, which is the default. The game can still be run in completely untranslated or completely translated mode.
All three modes have been tested and translate strings, or not, as expected. The `$Use tabled strings for the default language:` flag has also been tested and still works.
Add FRED comments. These aren't the typical source-code style comments that are embedded in mission or table files; these are regular strings that are stored as mission data. You might think of them as annotations. Right-click on any node in the event tree and click on Edit Comment to add one. The tree node will then show a different icon and the comment will be visible as a tooltip when you mouse over the node text.
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
