Character encoding for special characters
I ran into a little problem.
In Germany we use very often ö, ä and ü in usernames, so the user-path of windows contains these characters, too. Your application does not support these characters. "Jürgen" is modified to "JÄ%rgen" and the application is unable to start. Can you please add UTF-8 support to your application to fix this issue? |
What application do you talk about please?

That's not something can be done because it doesn't have anything to do specifically with ESO. Only use standard ASCII A-Z for usernames. This is a common issue even with single player games like Skyrim or Fallout 4.

ESO got no problems with that, the problem here is the coding of the Minion AddOn Management, which I know found the correct forum for. |

Strange
That's strange, because Minion already starts with UTF-8:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Minion\app\Minion.cfg: Code:
[JVMOptions] If it was just a problem with CP-1252 and UTF-8, it should output question marks instead of replacing "ü" with "Ä%". I have some ideas that do not involve renaming your user. But they are all ugly. Let's try the easy one first:

And noone ever said you need to install windows new? You just need to rename or create a new user in your windows which is kind of really easy doable. If that is nothing you want to do you need to currently live with the problem of Minion 3 not supporting any characters like that, sadly but that's how it curently is. Or you try Wookie's ideas. Or you wait for Minion 4 to get released any day. |
