I'll translate from English into French
« am: 23. April 2010, 03:12:23 »
Hello everybody,
I already translated episode 19, and I am willing to translate every other English translation in French.
So Rocco, or someone else, send me the files, I'll get to it soon !

as far as I know, episode 19 does not have an English translation  ???
or at least the maniac mansion mania homepage says so ;)
anyway, I would love to have my episode 53 translated  :)
I can give you the English translation file this afternoon
but be warned, this episode is no short game  ;)

Oops, episode 9, yes. ;D
I've got the file for episode 53, so I'll be busy with that for some time, I won't accept any other translation for the time being, until I am finished with ep. 53.

i released the new version yesterday and someone asked me for the tranlation file, to check the tranlation.
i didnt give it away, but get this statement anyway.

Zitat
Zitat von: rocco
nothing easier then that, play the game.

 
Yeah, I know, the way I formulated my questoin was stupid. I meant, I already played and finished the game in English, but then I was hoping to have a quick review of the translation by going through the translation file.
Anyway, as I wrote, I've played it and the translation is perfect.
Like, PERFECT.
Well done.

 
So again big thx narushima, outstanding work.  :D

Just to be picky, why is there no French flag for that episode in the episodes list ?

and insert it only on the german version of the site.

It's been almost two years, but I am back.
Glad to see that people are still making episodes, and the website looks great !

Now I said I would translate episode 53, and I will ! I have started picking up where I left, but I still have a ways to go. So it's not going to be ready straight away, but I'm working on it.

There you go. I put the intro at the very beginning, as you'll see.

Would you have the original German/English file ? I stupidly did not make a backup of the original, and your link to it has expired.
The .rar is password-protected. I'll PM you the password.

Edit : also, would it be possible to have custom buttons (you know, "talk to" "pull" "push", etc.) made in French ? The French words are longer, so it could be tricky, but that would definitely ass something to the game.
What's more, I updated the readme file, translating what was in it in French. I'll attach it as well.

Doesn't exist a French DOTT version there?

Indeed, it does:


And here the Verb GUI with the hover color (just have to be cut out and added to the game):


Domi:"irc hab ich mir viren geholt.. icq hab ich nimmer"

Indeed, it does:
I played that version, and the buttons are good, although I myself replaced "parler"with "discuter", so it can work with common names, like the inventory items.

So, who's next to have their game translated ? I promise it won't take me two years this time. Unless your game is really, really long !

Edit : another thing, the introductory text of the English homepage is not exactly perfect. Here's something that I think sounds better, more natural and more engaging :

Zitat
Hello and welcome to Maniac Mansion Mania!

Maniac Mansion Mania, is a fan-made adventure series which is all about reliving the glory of the original Maniac Mansion and extending it further into a rich, thrilling world. The whole series is delivered in the form of episodes so that each developer can create their own story in the extended universe of Maniac Mansion.

Taking an active part in the life of Maniac Mansion Mania is easy ! Everybody can create their own episode.

I'd need help with this final bit here, though, because I really don't get what is meant by that ('aurochs' ?!) :

Zitat
The basic scaffolding for the construction of an Adventure aurochs with a Lucas style SCUMM interface is, provided just like all figures, places, pieces of music and Sounds of the complete series till now.

I haven't tested the starterpack, so I don't really know what it is like. Can you give me some details ? Just enough so I can describe it quickly in the introductory text.

hmm, it seems, that the MMM-font does not support the French quotation marks « »
« does not show at all
» is shown as Ü

is there a way to get « » to work right in AGS2.72?  ???

@Narushima;
is "MMM" or 'MMM' also allowed in French instead of « MMM » ?
