Otherwise, the translation process would have turned into a hell of a hard labor for me. I have a full set of self-written utilities to quickly transliterate the necessary resources into Russian for translation and back into Latin for use in the game. Thus, the meaningless set of letters that was mentioned here is just a transliteration of the text translated (on russian) into Latin characters, which in the game display Cyrillic characters. Thus, it was decided to draw Cyrillic characters on top of the Latin letters plus several unused characters in the texts to get the right amount of characters. That is, there was no place for Cyrillic symbols in the font. Main difficult for translation was fact that original game uses symbols above than 0x7F as control symbols for text formatting. I am the one of authors of russian translation of Daggerfall that we've had done long time ago.
