2.0.1b9 English.cfg shows warning for me

Postby tatt61880 » Sat Nov 26, 2011 3:09 pm

When I choose English language, it shows warning.
Does this happen only in my PC?
41705 ms: - WARNING - The current font (Verdana) cannot display the given text, looking for fallback font... Switching to fallback "Tahoma"
41714 ms: - WARNING - The current font (Verdana) cannot display the given text, looking for fallback font... Switching to fallback "Tahoma"
41722 ms: - WARNING - The current font (Verdana) cannot display the given text, looking for fallback font... Switching to fallback "Tahoma"
41730 ms: - WARNING - The current font (Verdana) cannot display the given text, looking for fallback font... Switching to fallback "Tahoma"


Edit:
I believe this is related to next codes.
default.cfg (Skin) wrote:font = "Verdana"; // The skin font. This is no more than a hint, since the font may not be found, and if it is it may not be compatible with the current language.

Changing the "Verdana" to "Tahoma" fixed this issue for me.

And I suggest to change next priority. Verdana is not good for fallback font, I think.
English.cfg wrote:Meta_FontFallbacks = ["Verdana", "Tahoma", "Sans"];


Edit2:
Finally, I found the cause of this issue.
When you changing language there is Japanese, Chinese etc. in language name.
So next warning doesn't occur if you change all non-ascii character which is in language name into ascii.
- WARNING - The current font (Verdana) cannot display the given text, looking for fallback font... Switching to fallback "Tahoma"
Or just change Skin font, as I wrote above.
font = "Tahoma" won't show this warning.

And
FontTestText = "The quick brown fox ..."
should be updated when you changed language. Currently this value sticks to which is in one language file.
