Foreign language
 

Hey,
is there any way to type in a server (supported by a plugin ofcourse) in a foreign language? For example if Im japanese I can alt-tab and start writing in japanese.
I am not japanese, but I saw a mod in my counter, that supports the server in a way that you can type in our language, because usually when I Alt-Tab in my server and try to type it wont write ANYTHING, also if I try to print the ASCII Value of my language letters to chat it will print nothing.

Is there any way to do it then?

Huh? Alt-Tab takes you to your desktop.

Alt-Shift, sorry :D

And what does that do?

Well, I never thought about people who live in countries which are english-only related to this feature. But if I live in a country which is non-english, my keyboard has a feature that when I tap Alt+Shift it switches to my mother language. For example, people from russian can type in english, once they tap Alt+Shift it switches to russian. Keyboards aren't english-only or russian-only.

Well, the main point is, I want to know how can I make CS 1.6 chat support other languages than english, cuz I saw it is possible.

I think you have to have that version of the game. Valve makes different versions of the game for different languages. IIRC.

If someone knows for sure I would like to know also :).

By using http://www.utf8-chartable.de/ you can replace the english characters with the characters you want like Hebrew or add them to your string.
Also take a look at this include https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=164789 and you should understand how to use it, but if you are using Hebrew you need to use a Reverse String stock so you could read the word.
You should check out this http://amxx.pl/topic/52571-include-polskie-znaki/ the real include authors topic, there is a comment which show you a use of this include / hex with the counter-strike 1.6 chat.

It was easy to understand how to use it, the question is, if I want to make for example that people will be able to type in hebrew in chat, will I must tell them that they need to write the letters in english, and it'll be converted after when pressing 'ENTER' to the hebrew letters? according to their keyboard location.

EXAMPLE: (since you know hebrew it'll be better for you to understand, nir)
Lets say I press Y for the 'messagemode say', then I type there "akuo", I hit enter, and it'll be converted to: שלום
so, what im asking, is it possible to make the 'messagemode say' be able to contain hebrew words while typing? so i'll see on my screen for example:

"say: היי מה קורה", or I must do the example at the top?

Re: Foreign language
 

No i don't think that its possible, because you need to change the "messagemode XXX" every letter typed, And if I'm not wrong there isn't any way to know if a player pressed a key like letter "k" or letter "p".
You must let the player know that this message will be written in Hebrew according to his keyboard.

What shows up when you just type in your native language?
