Korean font slow down in UFO:AI 2.2
« on: November 26, 2009, 07:33:12 am »
UFO:AI play is being slow down in Korean.
I found some GPL font, and test it.
But if there is many Korean string, then extremely slow down although FPS displays 30.0 above.
(for example, UFOpaedia or Geoscape message)

I guess that freetype hinting makes this problem.
(Latin Languages consist of some lines and dot. But Eastern Asia's 2byte languages consist of many lines and curves.)
Anyway is there some one which play in Japanese or Chinese or Korean?

And, there is one more problem - slecting langauage.
Font doesn't changes so just draw empty box when change Language.


Platform
WinXP Pro SP2 / UFO:AI 2.2 / AMD 4200+ x2 / Geforce4 7600GS

morpheus, there is a bug in pre 2.3 versions, which slow down all non-latin language. Fortunately it has been fixed in 2.3-dev. Please, try one of snapshots. Also, if you translate game, you should do any work in trunk.
