I'm new to this field , im actually overwhelmed by technicalities, but i can make use of pointers and guides , even the smallest information would contribute to my learning process.
I'm trying to localize age of empire 2 HD , Now here's the problem, i have some text files that i found with the extension .mm , i can modify those using notepad++, initially the notepad says its encoded in ASCII but i convert it using notepad++ to utf-8 and then edit the english text to arabic. when i start the game i see the texts in weird latin letters, what's the problem ?

Also, i have tried to look around and i read people talking about editing font files to add characters , idk how to do that , how can i know that the initial game font support my arabic characters ? if it doesn't how do i add them ?

You can make the ads go away by registering

in ASCII, you must replace ascii character face's whit your own character's... some games cant support unicode mode in strings and utf-8 cant help you in this mode... cuase uft-8 using recharacter in decimal value,
for example; replace A to ح in font map or font face
