Creature Naming Changes?

Post by Tree »

Does anyone know if the parameters for naming creatures has changed lately?

I have a creature I am trying to name "D’abr’tho" but getting the message that it can only contain letters and spaces. Her mother's name is "E'ch-Pi-El" though, which also contains the apostrophe I'm trying use. :orly:

I just tested it, try using this. I believe you're using the wrong apostrophe. XD;

D'abr'tho

Edit: Just checked again, you are using two different apostrophes. The one on the second name does work, the one on the first name does not.

Edit edit: There is apparently a difference between the straight apostrophe and the curly one. One is easier to use code-wise but they are indeed two different things. Huh. The more you know!

Ooh, maybe because I was copying and pasting from a different font. Now I don't think I could even do the curly one from my keyboard if I tried :lol:

And it worked! D'abr'tho (who I'm calling Debra in my head haha) has her official Gemcrafter name haha

Thank you!
