TR1X 4.7

Commit: 2ab543f
Tag: 4.7

Changes

4.7 - 2024-12-20

• added support for Wayland in binary Linux builds (#1927)

• added support for Unicode in gameflow JSON (#386, #636, #1919 and #1928)
  Expanding on the 4.6's added support for named sequences, we now support
  most of the characters the following Unicode planes:

  • Basic Latin
  • Cyrillic
  • Greek and Coptic
  • Latin-1 Supplement
  • Latin Extended A

  The sprites were created by Arsunt originally posted in the TRF topic here:
  https://www.tombraiderforums.com/showthread.php?p=8396039

  This should be enough to let gameflow editors provide full localisation for
  the following languages:

  Basque, Belarusian, Bosnian, Bulgarian, Catalan, Croatian, Czech, Danish,
  Dutch, English, Estonian, Faroese, Finnish, French, Galician, German,
  Greek, Hungarian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Irish, Italian, Latvian,
  Lithuanian, Macedonian, Malay, Maltese, Northern Sami, Norwegian, Polish,
  Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish,
  Swedish, Turkish and possibly more.

  Importantly, Asian and Arabic languages remain unsupported at the moment.
