I can translate in dutch for you. :D

Some english words are the same in dutch and some word's do not have a good dutch equalivent because we start to mix up english with our own language.
But i'm sure every dutchman will understand them. :)

If your game text system can support it, I can probably get you Korean if you like

Hello,

thanks a lot!

Great stuff!

I think Korean might be a problem. Dan also posted russian language entries in cyrillic chars. We use a bmp font so this will surely be a problem, but thanks...

yeah, this is why I asked.. Korean uses a strange (i.e Non Roman) way of displaying text. I looks pictoral but actually it's character based and It's got fewer characters than the English Alphabet but the weay each syllable is displayed makes it tricky to do.

The thing is, a lot of Koreans are manic gamers with disposable incomes so if you're going in for a commercial project, you might want to consider this as a future option.

You could always try to use a set of Latin characters to substitute the Korean ones then just use the faked english characters in place of the korean ones...

Just an idea. ;)

I can't see how that would work Will...

This is the Wikipedia page on Hangul (the Korean Written Language)

Hey,

thanks again, very cool :)

Yes I guess I won't use cyrillic or other charsets...

Many languages with uncommon alphabets, have well known transliterations to write them in the Roman alphabet. While not perfect, it is still a translation. I would support Cyrillic characters though, it is not harder than Roman, simply use a different BMP file.

How about Elvish Or Klingon? I may have a dictionary of theirs around here somewhere.

Too bad I cannot use Cyric letters etc.

But thanks folks I have a lot of languages now,
much more than I hoped for!

Here my actual language.ini:

http://www.ericbehme.de/download/Language.ini

Everything is complete now! The game is currentyl beeing beta-tested.

Most important for me was the main menu to have in multiple languages and this is done now thank you all very much :D 8)

If maybe somebody has some free time perhaps you could add some more translations just looking on the german part above which is completly translated by me.

I will publish the project very soon, thanks!

Only a comment.

When I wrote the Spanish version I used the word 'or'. It isn't Spanish but English. I used it to separate different versions of the phrase. For example, the option: Edit Level=Editar mapa or Editar nivel means you can use either Editar mapa or Editar nivel but not the complete phrase.

Also, Order=Comprar (if Order = buy order) means that Order can be translated by Comprar if you use "order" to mean "buy order".

I think it's my fault because I didn't explain it. Sorry. :oops:

Hi!

It is too much work for me to make cyrillic letters.
But thanks for helping out.

This gives me the idea, I could look for other languages there maybe,
but I don't know how good the quality gets then...
