Foreign language characters?

[shintashi]

I want to make an oriental setting and use Japanese and Chinese characters. Is there a method of making this happen?

[Mitsarugi]

yes there is a script for it (i have it)

[shintashi]

would such a script work in XP?

I've tried using UMS script:

Code Select Expand

$game_system.font = "MS Mincho"

and following up with a simple test for  "?" but it turned into a question mark in the 'text:' and in the simple script:

Code Select Expand

p "?"

it prints

I don't understand. Are you saying I need to download another program and spend 40 years manually drawing all the japanese characters?

sort of , but you don't have to draw them you know ^^
you can open 2 font files and copy, past them in the other :p

Can you write up a simple step by step (links where necessary) on how to do this?

like

step 1. download program [link]

step 2. open program >> new file (or whatever)

step 3. locate (japanese font) at (link or wherever)

step 4. open () in RPGmaker XP and drag drop/type (something)

etc.

?
