A little typing foreign accents help, please
I can't seem to type any foreign accent marks since patch 2. Anyone have any problem like that? Or, any ideas that might work? I was typing them fine before patch 2.
Thanks.

I'd be interested in this too
I couldn't seem to get this to work yesterday either. Even when in to Windows, added the international keyboard, tested in notepad and got the e with the accent, but couldn't get it to work in the game.
REally need this for naming cities and getting the autolookup to work. thanks in advance.

What I did recently was use character map to copy the character to the clipboard, and then use CTRL-V to paste it into the line I was typing. Not as efficient as I'd like, but it worked. -j

What JinAz says works pretty well. Also, you may want to try this little thing I found: //http:spanish.typeit.org / I select which letter I want, then go to the game and use CTRL+V to insert it. It will insert the letter you select into the field, but it deletes the entire field (at least it does for me). No problema - I just use the "back arrow" to go to the start of the field and type in the info I want up to the accented letter. Then I use the "forward arrow" to go past the accented letter and continue entering the info. It sounds like a hassle, but it's pretty simple and straightforward once you try it a few times. You can also use it for French accents (and some other languages).
