BingSlient2018 Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 English is fine, but other languages can't be displayed nicely. It is that a bug, or something wrong with my system setup?

Naveil Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 That Language Pack is community made. Klei probably can’t help you, try contacting the mod creator.

But I didn't use the mod, I just use it to show that the game just can't show the correct characters of other languages except English. The problem must be with the game itself or something to do with my system setup, but can't figure out a solution...

And if you are not using this mod then why would you put it in your original post? He just gave another example with a second picture where the same glitch is occuring. On that picture somebody is using mods. He wrote that he has no mods installed. This is not difficult to understand. Steam comes with its own fonts and libraries on Linux (aside from the system installed binaries, Steam puts everything it uses in the userspace under ~/.local/share/Steam). This is to ensure that when a game is run it will have all its dependencies satisfied. Sometimes this works okay, sometimes not so much. On occasions it's better to make Steam use the system installed libraries. The problem could be related to Steam using a fonts that are being rendered in a strange way. You could try to make Steam use other fonts (run "Steam (Native)" instead of "Steam (Runtime)" in Arch Linux and it should use the system installed libraries instead). Here is a good resource: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Steam/Troubleshooting#Text_is_corrupt_or_missing (the general idea applies to Ubuntu as well; some font package could be missing, hence Steam uses its own glitchy fonts instead).

I apologize that one of the pictures they had posted that clearly showed a list of mods with one of them being for chinese text had led me to believe he was using those mods, this is totally a mistake no one else would make clearly. (Even though other people had the same thoughts as I did). Also since Ubuntu isn't a widely used operating system its obvious there must be something system side that is causing this discrepancy. "This is not difficult to understand". I would love to help but I don't use that operating system.

JohnWatson Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I believe this is an issue with Ubuntu and Ubuntu-based distros or maybe any Linux distros, but I can't be sure IIRC, this issue wasn't in Windows Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/86831-cant-not-display-chinese-characters-well/#findComment-1009825 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Rage Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Can you query your package manager for 'ttf-' and 'fonts' and post the output? It will tell us which font packages you have installed. On Ubuntu: apt-get --installed | grep -E 'ttf-|fonts' On Arch Linux: pacman -Qs | grep -E 'ttf-|fonts' I tried running Steam with both the native and runtime option on Arch Linux. Both options gave the same result. For me the Chinese characters show up as '?????', so I have never noticed this render issue.

JohnWatson Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I'm going to assume this is definitely an issue with Ubuntu Linux: Windows: Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/86831-cant-not-display-chinese-characters-well/#findComment-1013382 Share on other sites More sharing options...
