MAME fonts vs. non unicode settings
#367806 - 07/13/17 03:18 AM Attachment: lilprof.png 130 KB (0 downloads)


Anyone notice strange display glitches when showing diagonals? Here is Little Professor display when non Unicode is set to Japanese. Below is when set to English (United States).

I though it only affected the UI when for example is was playing a tape. But then I noticed the UI doesn't displays diagonals anymore.

Before:
'|' '/' '-' '¥'
Now:
'|' '□' '-' '□'

That's a crappy layout trying to use characters for LCD segments. It should really be using a 14-segment or 16-segment LED element as appropriate.
