AGDInteractive - Sierra Adventure Game Remakes Forum

Hi Harald<br>Thanks for your advice. I've already thought of thoose words, but it seems now that I can't use å, ä, and ö in the control panel and in the death messages. This makes it harder (I probably have to use the english words in the control panel...).<br><br>I'd really appreciate if you'd like to read through the translation and give some pointers.<br><br>Please send me an email:<br>dixon_mason@hotmail.com<br><br>Thank you <p></p><i></i>

I've noticed this post and want to offer my services of proof-reading Portuguese, in case you need anyone. <p></p><i></i>

Hi,<br><br>I'm a native Dutch speaker and willing to lend a hand for such a worthy cause <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> I'm a graduated translator (Dutch/English/French) with excellent proofreading skills. I realize there are probably sufficient people already working on these languages, but if you are ever in need of a person for 1 of these languages, or if time is of the issue, you can send me a mail and I will jump right on it. In addition, I also have some early programming skills (as in: I wrote a few simple programs, most notably a Qbasic remake of Where In the World is Carmen San Diego, moving from Turbo Pascal to c++ now).<br><br>Darkelve<br>Wiedewiedewoep@hotmail.com <p></p><i></i>

Questions:<br>A)What games do you translate?<br>B)Does it need any complicated programming skills to get your hands on the text?<br>C)If not could it be possible to make Finnish translation of something?

I may have answered it through mail, although I don't dare to bet anything on it.<br><br>Anyway, the line doesn't need to be translated.

Hmmm, a hebrew and arabian font. I'm really not sure if there's still room for them. At this point, the maximum amount of fonts allowed is 10, so unless CJ raises the limit, those fonts may not be able to be included.<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://httpd.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nashu ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <p></p><i></i>

I can supply the template, but someone else will need to take the job. And there's always the risk of glitches or the whole thing getting screwed up since I haven't had a hebrew translation to test it with. (and at this point, I can't make any more changes to the source)<br><br>BTW, Rani hasn't posted on these boards ever since that last message.

Your font has been included in the latest version. In theory, the game should support arabic. If you want to obtain a translation template, please contact me.
