Hi
is there any chance to implement right to left dialogues in onscripter-ru ?
We want to translate the game into Arabic (translation almost ready but we need RTL support)

Hi,

Yes, of course, the build system of onscripter-ru is still in a fairly decent state, so it is possible. Unfortunately you will have to be mostly on your own doing that. My suggestion is to modify the language command to allow for Arabic, and then rework the text rendering system to swap the coordinates, it is mostly in Dialogue.cpp.

We can surely participate in the integration of the patches into the main branch of the repository (https://github.com/umineko-project/onscripter-ru) once the pull-requests are ready.

Thanks for the reply
the problem is that I am not familiar with that code, it's like a puzzle I can't figure out which variable is what.

I can't even compile the engine
it says something about SDL not finding the autoconfig

Unfortunately we are very tired of this project to spend extra time on it both free and paid. The compilation instructions are published here: https://github.com/umineko-project/onsc ... ilation.md. Hope it helps!

We followed the compilation instructions we even hired pro devs but they all failed to compile it
We lost all hopes

Try DM Neurochitin. He's writing a documentation for onscripter-ru. Probably the only human, except for UP's staff, who understand how the engine works.The documentation itself may not be useful for your purpose, but he probably can help you.
