New commander oOolite

Post by Globule »

Hello Commanders,

I am French, first forgive my English a little rough, but since I do not speak the language shekspear I go through a translator.
I arrived on your site by looking for a space opera Free keeping in mind a deep nostalgia for the legendary Elite David Braben and Ian Bell.
Where I spent hours playing with my Amstrad CPC 6128.

And fills the fate I get on your site, I admit that it is an unexpected surprise for me!

I would like to warmly thank the people who made possible Oolite and all those developing Expansion Packs oolite in effect is improving steadily thanks to you.
thank you

However I think the multilingual files are missing.
I would try to translate oolite in the language of Molière if you agree.
Menus, various information etc ...
To start, I would like to know which files are the texts of the game and their extensions.
If I can carry out this adventure, I would translate download available for interested people to your site.

Would you agree?

Best Regards

Welcome aboard, Globule! There is a French localisation here, but it is rather old and I've no idea if it still works.
Perhaps you could take a look - use it as a starting point, update or improve it even?
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

Hi Globule, and welcome. You will find we are a friendly and helpful community, so feel free to ask for any help or advice you want. And good luck with the French translation if you do have a look at it- I'm sure lots of people would be happy to see that. :)

The language of Shakespeare had a genitive case and a subjunctive mood, but you wouldn't know it from reading the "English" on this forum.

The relevant files are Resources/Config/descriptions.plist & Resources/Config/missiontext.plist. Copy those to your AddOns folder and edit them.

The very old French translation is here:-

Good luck.

G'day Globule, and welcome aboard!

Just adding to what has already been said, if you run into any problems, or have questions, don't hesitate to ask.. we're a very friendly group of people here, and we'd love to help out.
Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied
