They seem to have forgotten mentioning that Romanian also uses Cedilla.

No, they correctly stated that it uses the comma accent, although those five Romanian letters aren't technically accented, according to Wikipedia.

Ah, you got it me there. I just checked one of my old grammar books and you're right about the Cedilla. It is indeed a comma accent. This is actually one of the reasons why I'm translating various RPGs into Romanian. I really have to polish up my grammatical skills. It's pretty sad when one starts falling behind in his or her own homeland tongue. And you're also right about those five letters not being technically accented. I just called them that for simplicity and so that I'm understood better. Most people refer to them as accented letters.

Edit: Soul Blazer, Illusion of Gaia and Terranigma all use various colored text such as blue, green, purple and yellow. Do I need to make a different font for each color or are there any bytes in the game for each individual color? I couldn't find mention of it in the Illusion of Gaia data thread...


EDIT Nightcrawler: Sorry, I clicked the wrong button and modified your existing post instead of posting a reply and lost most of it...  Embarrassed

Don't worry about it Nightcrawler. I've done the same mistake a few times too with my posts. It's a rather common mistake that happens on forums. Luckily, I remembered much of what I wrote before. Smiley

It's likely a palette change triggered by a control code in the game script. No different fonts
