I searched and it was difficult to find any kind of discussion on this topic.

Is it possible to make KF support special characters in player names? I've changed the web admin interface to use UTF-8 so peoples' names seem to show up as intended there but the game itself still displays names incorrectly, obviously because only the uweb.int file was modified.

This is how a name showed in the web interface: Ыυđșħστz
This is how it shows in-game: Ы
 
It's an established fact that Killing Floor doesn't support special characters.

My ingame name for source games such as CS:S zombie mod and (shamefully) Love 4 Dick was Candlejack, but with fancy spelling utilising special characters from everywhere.
They're not supported.

I'm not sure why, but maybe Killing Floor/Unreal Engine only supports ASCII and not Unicode.
