A temporary thread until I finish it (then can be deleted).

A few issues I did not know where to search to fix them:

it needs a space or invert words if possible (Blue Capital)


when right click on defend icon, should be
Defend|Stack attack type options (seems like in russian "party" is often used for stack).



Suggestions:
Cheat menU, typo
Phoenix Mod's personal (replace with own or unique)
Provides the hero with any creature stack
Open the whole map (surface and underground)
View other players world maps


I am not sure where it is but should be:
Available points, not points quantity


Pathfinding and Scholar name need to be fixed


Isn't anything to put in category? A number or anything else, it is empty.

Question:

199188{~LightGreen} Mysticism {~} allows the hero to buy {~ Gold} mana for gold {~} at a rate of (SP) * 0.5 gp/mana point.
What is SP?

Quote:it needs a space or invert words if possible (Blue Capital)

Capital of Blue player|Player.

Agree.

Quote:Phoenix Mod's personal (replace with own or unique)

Agree.

Quote:I am not sure where it is but should be:

Maybe "Points num." to fit in the box?

Quote:Pathfinding and Scholar name need to be fixed

Yes.

Quote:Isn't anything to put in category? A number or anything else, it is empty.

Should be all filled. One needs to translate Data\FC\FC.ini

SP is Spell Power

More which are not in 99.ert:

I had 3 hand of death artefacts, but it says I have 3 gold instead


The bottom text needs translation done again. I don't know where it is.


Not error, but it would be great if this dialog has some text header, as "Purchase your starting army" or similar. For a first player is a must.


Same party problem, but on another button. Party --> Stack


I am not sure that Stats must be kept. There are not skills displaying, so "Stats" is useless. Maybe change it to Upgrade/Skill points management?


If the text item size can be increased for the english version, would be perfect. Both hints do not enter in.

Quote:I had 3 hand of death artefacts, but it says I have 3 gold instead

Available gold => has

Luck Chest

Original: Stats

cmenu.txt
Lines:
Text 89 19 16 59 12
Text 88 76 28 32 12

Text will overflow the box, but at least will be shown. Or use shortened text.

After activating dark mark I got blue defenders, is something special?


Can I change the order of z vars in 98 erm? Because there is no way that the russian order can have any sense when in english


A few bonus places on the map (garden, windmill) gives this message after visiting. Others just show "visited". How should I translate it? Empty? Visited?


How to translate "lift"

Quote:After activating dark mark I got blue defenders, is something special?

You have scouting and you are close enough to stack, thus you see real number of neutrals, not averaged.

Quote:Can I change the order of z vars in 98 erm? Because there is no way that the russian order can have any sense when in english

No. Write smth like: Increases the ... for all Bone Dragons / ...

Empty

Don't raise anything or No raising

Ok, I fixed all issues, the ones left are the "party" in battle icon hints, and the grammar errors when in settings screen (PM setup). I don't know where to search for those.

Changed "buying army" to purchase starting army. Also in hints I added that entering negative value will sell the creatures. I know this is in help, but for someone playing it for first time maybe is a good idea to get this unusual info. I will remove it if you don't like.


Created a space so it displays well. The correct english would be Blue Capital, but needs z vars switching.


Change Fc.ini, send me the proper descriptions is you can


Fixed the size of text items and pathfinding/scholar errors.

I like it. Better than in original.

Same in russian (not soundable), so no problem.

Quote:Change Fc.ini, send me the proper descriptions is you can

They are gone in 3.62. No sense to translate. Also if use new fonts, cyrilic will be displayed properly.

Good.

Прежде чем изменить графическую подложку, предлагаю немного сократить и сам текст.. вторую строку, в частности
points Quantity

Наверняка в английской терминологии есть сокращения для данных слов.

Кстати, тогда уж и можно было бы оставить изначальные размеры областей, как на этой картинке видно:

No, Bes, not a variant, imo.

If I remove ramka.pcx, all is perfect



Modify ramka.pcx to fit both english and russian text? It would need only a few pixels larger.

Смотрите сами, можно и без рамки.. (но в русском варианте она останется)
Если под каждый язык стараться подладить рамку, то боюсь мы всё равно не угадаем.. на китайском может ещё и влезит, а вот про арабский ФМ я сомневаюсь

You can't have the cake and the money for it. If the mod is translated into another language, little modifications HAVE to be done (actually one only), mostly for language length. In this case, I can take care of, so there is no additional work for you. The russian version remains unchanged.

We can also not care about and release it with cut words, weird abbreviations, so none understands what's about. It is your mod too, so if you insist...

Достаточно места под два языка: русский и английский. Бес, веб-сайты делаются успешно и интерфейсы в играх. Просто не делай в притык в расчёте на строго определённые, строго русские слова.

Valery, normal decision, but please, keep log of such changes. We'll need them.

I made a new ramka55.bmp and used in instead of ramka4.bmp. Size is 115/29 instead of 100/29






It needs slight modification at two text items coordinates, but I don't know how to save this dialog from cmenu.txt, so modifications are only on my system.
Is it possible that could work also with russian text?
