Display right-to-left text - Arabic & Hebrew localizatio

Post » Wed Jun 11, 2014 5:41 pm

Is there a way to mod Skyrim so that it displays text from right to left?

Localizing the game to such languages as Arabic and Hebrew is a nightmare. I was able to localize the menu system (which mainly consists of single words or short lines) by reversing the letters, but when it comes to longer text, once the sentence is split into the second line the words becomes messed up.

Does the creation kit has any capabilities in regards to the direction in which the text is printed on the screen? Or is the game engine hard-coded to always print text on the screen left-to-right? Anyone knows if the SKSE has the capability to modify something like this?

I am very interested to learn more about this. Hopefully someone here has an idea.

Thanks
