Topic: Question about "Exec" command

Hey,
Here's my problem big_smile

I want to execute a name.txt file encoding in UTF-8 (exemple : player_name Bobby).

After writing exec name.txt ingame, it says : No such command: player_name

But in Ansi encoding, it works good o_o. Is there any way to use UTF file ?

Thanks big_smile

I don't thinks so. Why don't you encode it in ANSI?

Re: Question about "Exec" command

Just tested it. Seems that only ANSI is supported. Can you write the name directly into the settings.cfg or in the GUI? Or can you life without some fancy chars and symbols?

Re: Question about "Exec" command

If you are just using two different names, bind them to any key, with writing the name change bind directly into the settings file. Then you can press the button ingame and change between both names.

Otherwise, if you want to have random characters and lots of different names, it won't work, because ingame UI doesn't support writing special chars.

Write binds in the settings.cfg such as:

bind x player_name [symbol1]Name

Re: Question about "Exec" command

Maybe your file had a BOM header at the beginning, that's common with UTF-8 files, teeworlds probably doesnt support that
