Hi,
How to add letters to the ESRI.lib/Text.cga?
I am Swedish and we have three "bonus letters" å, ä ,ö...
I could not see them in the code.
I realy would like to use the code for street namnes!

How to use Text.cga in CityEngine 2014.0?
It dosen't help. I need to add tree letters that aren't included (å, ä ö) to the .db and to the texture, I guess...
Is there a way off adding letters to the file in ESRI.lib?
Or is there another way off using text in CityEngine?
If you need to add more characters, you need to edit the rule that creates the text.
There are 3 images in the esri lib that are used. Each has 32 characters. You need to redo those images, with your added characters (either replace your character with existing ones or making the list longer than 32).
If you change the amount of characters, you need to adapt the CGA code, basically swapping the float value 32 to what ever you have
Make sure the picture is well formatted, with enough resolution (but not too much either).
Hope this helps.

Tomas,
If you want to add letters, and must modify CGA to do so, then try the 3D text example here:
CGA Rule: 3D_Text
The rule uses a 3D OBJ model for every character, so it is easier to add letters if you have a standard 3D modeling program (like Maya, 3DS, Rhino), than using the 2D text rule in ESRI.lib. You can make 2D text with this rule also.
