Hello,
For part of my game I need to display chinese characters in a dialogue. Is there a programmatic way of doing this or how do I do this? Does anyone have any code for doing this? I appreciate any help with this, thank you.

Hello, I have a problem. Can`t build project for android after including s3eDialog.
+1 good question.
You can have textures with text
You can use truetype fonts in marmalade by using the font builder tool, it handles the code for you to cache the glyphs to textures and everything.
Thanks for your answers guys, I haven't really used the font builder so I guess I am not sure what you mean by truetype, I mean I didn't really see the option. It would be convenient just to copy paste, then how would this be called from the program?
Textures would be good to, does this mean just copy into an image since I was just considering that since I don't have many phrases that I need in Chinese.
It would be kinda cool just to call a function but I am not sure how to start.
Eventually I will need the functionality to do more phrases so eventually I will need a more solid way of doing this, meaning less resource intensive.
Font builder definitely supports TrueType fonts. You'll need to encode your text by UTF-8 if you'd like to use non-alphabet characters, just to let know.
Cool, thanks for the info.
