Welcome back.

Your report is incomplete, please provide more info. Are there any error messages? What's happening when you do what exactly, and what had you expected to happen instead? Provide the verbose output and, if it helps depicting the problem, a screenshot.

Your report arrives exactly while 3.7.1 is being prepared, so it will be a while until a fix can be made available if code changes are needed. Helping with pre-release testing (i.e. testing the betas) can work around such inconveniences.

When I switch the input method Microsoft Pinyin input method, and then chat with my friends in the game, but can not enter any Chinese, thank you
The game does not support the input method: "Microsoft Pinyin input method"    :'(
