Alt+Number Characters

[DistortionSleep]

Hello, I am new to the forums.
I play UT2K4 quite a lot, and I saw that lots of people have different characters in their names, such as š rather than s. I tried to put these in my name, and 99% of the characters don't show up in the game...I was wondering how these people are doing this when barely any of them work for me?

It depends on which type of server you're playing on. The Alt Codes will not show up on a Unix server, only ones running Windows.

I do use Windows, not Unix. Also, this I have got most of the letters to show up right. This is what it looks like: DïstÓrtîÒñSlèêp.

No it depends on the server you're playing on, whether it is Unix or not.

What is a Unix server?

It's a server that runs Unix (Or a flavor thereof), instead of Windows.

Yes, servers need an OS, too.
