Changelogs
Version 8.9
Added the nine Irish dotted letters (lenited consonants).
Created 12% smaller version for German to fix missing numbers in perk skill trees. Supports all other languages too, so use this version if you experience that bug.
Fixed missing download images on modpage.
Dabbled a bit more in the font's kerning. Still definitely not perfect, but I don't have the time to overhaul everything.
No need to download new font patches, the previous patches between Sovngarde 8.8 and other fonts works just fine with Sovngarde V8.9
Version 8.8
Added a resized version of Sovngarde as the console font. Previous version in 8.7 was much too small.
Version 8.7
Added the missing capital ẞ (sharp S) Germanic letter.
Added the missing Ё & ё for Russian users.
Fixed the double line perk descriptions for Ordinator users. What happened was, the second line of the description was cut off. It's been previously fixed but somehow it happened again. This time it's 100% fixed though! Applies to all languages and versions.
Added Sovngarde as the console font to overcome the default console font being incompatible with the wide array of languages it needs to support.
Version 8.6
Fixed the "ю" letter that was mistakenly displaying as "o" for Russian users.
Fixed the books being filled with squares on every language but English with the new open source book font (Drukaatie Burti by Kārlis Kalviškis). I took Drukaatie and added support for the missing languages so it would support all 8 languages. More info about Drukaatie listed in the credits.
Version 8.5
Fixed graphical glitch seen on the uppercase M in only the light version of the mod. Updated all file versions to 8.5 for clarity.
Version 8.4
Added Russian/Cyrillic support. This is a brand new set of glyphs and not dependent or related to the Russian version made for V7.
Re-added Polish support after stabilizing the files and retesting them thoroughly.
Added seamless switching between languages. What this means is, you can download ONE file and access all 8 supported languages without having to access your mod manger to swap out files at any time.
As usual, font compatibility patches are not compatible with previous versions due to a change in the way the game will lookup Sovngarde in the fontconfig.txt file.
Fixed the Portuguese/Spanish question mark that was facing the incorrect direction in V8.3
Made the patches with 12th Century and other fonts work seamlessly across any version of Sovngarde you have installed (light or bold & V8.4+).
Version 8.3
Added apostrophe support for Sovngarde Light & Bold.
Recreated Sovngarde Light with streamlined characters and every improvement it missed out on since V7.
Version 8.2
Now supports the glyphs used in text from Lost Library, Ambriel, Legacy of the Dragonborn and Immersive Wenches. Finally no more boxes in dialogue or books!
Resized the numerals to be even with the peak vertical heights of the uppercase glyphs.
Resized the Sovngarde console font and created inverted bracket versions of the console font to match the primary font in the inverted files.
Removed all overlap causing blank space such as the following glyphs: #, +, Æ, ł, Ł, Đ.
Version 8
Reweighted all letters for every supported language.
Standardized all uppercase letter heights. Specifically raised B, A, O, Q, G, V & W to the standard height exhibited by K, M & T.
Resized a majority of lowercase letters to the standard height exhibited by "a".
Created an entirely new set of numerals set in the new style of Sovngarde.
Changed all punctuation weight and majority of punctuation glyph styles.
Adapted existing glyphs or replaced all punctuation with new glyphs and designs.
Shortened the length of the uppercase L's lower arm.
Replaced the console font with a larger version of Sovngarde.
Added and tested full support for Polish, which had not worked in earlier versions since the transition to 64bit from 32bit. Just remember to download the Polish USSEP translation or you'll have English mixed throughout your game.
Removed support for Cyrillic until a proper version is created and tested.
Fixed the misspelled console font reference in the fontconfig.txt in the first version of V8.
Version 7

Desktop edition now includes a Turkish version. Now includes both OTF & TTF.
Implemented a fix for the missing second perk description lines in Cyrillic.
Added the Russian TTF to the Desktop Edition.
Version 6.2
Replaced asterisk with new design. V6.1 had an apostrophe before the asterisk when typed. That issue was fixed with this update.
Polish support added.
Version 6.1
Fixed backwards Spanish question mark.
Version 6
Added both guillemets.
Uppercase & lowercase glyphs are finally a uniform weight.

The "X" glyph in the Cyrillic version is different than in the multilingual version.
Added degrees symbol.
Version 4.1

Version 4

Inverted closed brackets edition released.
Font placement within all the menus has been adjusted so the font is in line with all the icons and arrows throughout the journal & inventory.
Added Polish glyphs, but due to display issues in-engine, Polish isn't supported till a solution comes to light.
Version 3
W now has a unique glyph rather than being an upside-down M.
All lowercase letters are now bold and match the uppercase letters perfectly.
A Matter of Time compatibility added.
German & Spanish are supported.
