Hi,
I'm building a little game with a lot of text.
I am French so all my texts are in French and there are a lot of special characters with accents.
I tried using the lua instruction "string.sub" for exemple string.sub( "Hello World", 2, 4 ) statement with accented letters.
But it failed...
It only works when I don't use accents.
I think a good alternative consist in building my own chartable in a image, maybe in the fontbank folder ?
Or there is already a chartable to do that ?
And how can i indicate to Lua to use this new chartable file ?
I progress in Lua but i am not a pro...lol
Thank you for any help

The problem is not easy to solve. The best way I've found is to directly change the font file.
