Problem with the german Umlaute

Hi.

My hunter is in a guild containing Umlaute in its name. Previous to the new design the spelling was correct, now it consists of odd characters. Gl?cksb?rchis vs. Glücksbärchis.

Multibyte characters > me


Working on it now

Okay, I have corrected this particular instance, and made some corrections in my parse process that I introduced the other day.

Unfortunately, it is quite likely that there is now lots of data out of whack if any character names or guild names were processed with multibyte characters.

Oh joy of joys... Going to do some looking around and see if I can find some added examples.

you'll see a dozen of example, and in my guild list too.

Okay, made some wide sweeping updates.

THere will be some characters who will need to be seen in another update to completely correct their data (they might not show up in a guild roster for example), but it should clear up as data comes in.
