  • Crusader Kings II: The Old Gods
Greetings,
I'm translating the game to arabic And for some reason it's not showing up the arabic words and replacing it with boxes
check the photo
Note (( I did translate Almost all paradox games and other to Arabic fine with no issue this is the first time i face this problem

Usually that kind of thing happens if the font that the game is trying to use doesn't have support for the particular characters; i.e. many fonts primarily used for English language things don't contain characters for Arabic/Chinese/Korean/etc.

You can take a look at steamapps\common\Crusader Kings III\clausewitz\fonts (assuming you're using the steam version, otherwise the path will be different) to see the fonts being used and cw_fonts.font has a list of what is used where for what language. (Note: I have only given this a quick glance and haven't had a chance to actually test anything so there may be other things you need to look at rather than just those files).

EDIT: actually maybe you want to look at steamapps\common\Crusader Kings III\game\fonts and fonts.font instead.
