sickboy 13 Posted November 12, 2006 Latest news... Screenshots to prove: http://www.6thsense.eu/gallery/showimage.php?i=6771&c=14 Language.pbo in the Addons folder... Unpbo it, change all stringtable.csv files like before (I just used powergrep to edit all files simultanious): <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">"English","Czech","German","Polish","Russian" to <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">"Czech","English","German","Polish","Russian" And voila, all the rest of the game translated aswell (Except single player mission/campaign briefings & overview ) Repack it with makepbo or winpbo (btw you can also put the "Czech" on the german, polish, or russian place... to get those languages ) Same goes for MULTIPLAYER missions, they have also english included stringtable, and even briefings and overviews, for now I just unpbo'd them, replaced the briefing.czech and overview.czech by the english ones, edited the stringtable.csv and voila. Now if we could only find the spot where it decides that it's the czech version... then we don't need to do all this crap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
linx310 0 Posted November 12, 2006 Have you tried a switch command on the exe... Its a long shot but on some games with launchers this is how it sets the lang. For EX: arma.exe -lang eng Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snake Man 406 Posted November 12, 2006 (Except single player mission/campaign briefings & overview Check the mission dirs if there is briefing.Czech.html and briefing.html files, that might help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sickboy 13 Posted November 12, 2006 (Except single player mission/campaign briefings & overview Check the mission dirs if there is briefing.Czech.html and briefing.html files, that might help. I wrote exactly that method down for the Multiplayer missions, plus I added to that text that those needed files are not included in the single player missions nor campaign, so sorry.. no go Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KaRRiLLioN 0 Posted November 12, 2006 It might violate an agreement with 505, the publisher for the English version. Â That doesn't mean, however, that they can't offer the Czech version as a downloadable purchase. Â I'd get it then convert it to English. Â Later, when the official North American version came out, I'd buy it. Â I'll bet they could easily double sell it like that to plenty of us who want it NOW!

Skunk Monkey 0 Posted November 13, 2006 Odered my copy Arrives weekend - thanks for all the help here 3 years since i logged in here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JDFreeSoul 0 Posted November 13, 2006 I will download a version online, I was to pre-order it but since I won't get a single word in the game, really not worth it. They probably know how stupid it is to have a Czech and German versions when English,Spanish and French are the most popular languages in the world and even more stupid when only Germans and Czechs are playing the game and the rest of the world can't because there is no English or Universal version at all. It would take like a few days to translate the whole game to another language. Then peoples will say... wait until 2007. Sure, come on. But it's not BIS' fault and I know, but it's important to mention it, since I've never seen such a thing in my whole gaming life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once that's done, nobody will have to wait for 505 release to get the game... That's not really nice.. 505 is still by far BIS biggest publisher so doing them a huge disfavour will definitely hit back on BIS too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CameronMcDonald 146 Posted November 14, 2006 True, that kind of stuff wouldn't pay off in the long run. @Sickboy - great job with this, I intend to have Armed Assault by mid December, and I assume this will be a great help, from what I've seen. Kudos to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So what you are exactly saying is if there are 3 million copies sold in czech, and 1 million for the english version ... that's worse, than when there are 1 million copies sold in czech and 3 million copies for the english version? It's the amount globally that counts right, not where it is bought? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
