Special Characters In Quake 3/UT 2003 Names

Post by ejwahl » Mon Oct 07, 2002 7:24 pm

I've been scouring the web on how to add a special character to my QIIIA or UT2003 name, like an umlaut over a 'u' or an accent over an 'e', and have come up with nothing. I've seen players online (QIIIA) with squiggles under their 'S' or other special characters in their names but can't figure out how they do it.

Can someone point me to a web page that could answer my question?

Thanks!

For Quake3 there are 'fun name generators' out there as win32 .exe files :/
I don't think you can use extended letters, like ü è or whatever.
If you play osp or cpma, you can have blinking letters or colored shadows as explained in the client readme file included with both these mods.

For ex to have your name in black in osp with a red shadow you have to use something like name ^XE22000^1ejwahl
