As a result I think doing scrambling based off the language and the word is the best approach so that, for example, the Dwarven and Orcish written word for "fight" would be different for each language and would always be the same for the specific language.

    Tren, am I correct that I can edit the "extension.xml" file to add new language/font combinations... especially if I'm just using the existing fonts?

    Rookie question: does every player need to have this extension installed?

    No, just the GM - the code from the extension will be downloaded by the players and put in the player campaign cache when they connect to the GM.

    UPDATE: V3.1 released:

    • Randomseed for letter scrambling now includes the language name. This results in the same scrambled word being used each time with different words across languages that share the same alphabet/font.
    • Cleaned up chat slashhandler help.

    Download available post #1.

    Heh. I downloaded the extension literally 10 minutes before you made this update.

    Thank you sir. Your tolerance of my OCD is admirable.
    I never claimed to be sane. Besides, it's more fun this way.

    Any possibility of making this work with dialogue and assigned speakers so we can drag and drop the block text into the chat frame?
