Hi all, just joined these forums yesterday :) After finding a nice mod so I could play as Denmark :cool:
When playing as DK i thought that it would be cool to have Danish text ingame... so after searching the forums i found a tool so i could open the .pack files :thumbsup2
And now i've started to translate the ingame text to Danish...
And i would just like to know if there where some Danes that would like to help translating all these lines of English to Danish :)
You might ask yourself why i write this in English when i'm looking for someone from Denmark to help...
But it's because i thought that some would probably get inspired and make a translation to their own language :)

BTW: Posting some screenshots of what i've done, when i have the time to upload to photobucket

Truelz/Troels from DK

Guess it's good for the danish players with a small english vocabulary, being danish myself i would never download this mod just because i hate seeing movies/games in danish text ;)

Good work tho ;D

Well. I think having an English-speaking mother really aided me in my English vocabulary. But even with what I consider good English...I might prefer playing the game with Danish text, instead.
 
Re: Ingame Danish Text/ Dansk tekst i spillet :)

Just a quick update:
Working on the UI (User Interface)

(I'll uploade some screenshots tomorrow)

BTW @ Fratyside: How can you be Danish, Swedish And Australian!? :P
 
Re: Ingame Danish Text/ Dansk tekst i spillet :)

Hey thats pretty cool Troels.
I think I will stick with english text but you know what would be really cool?

If you made a danish description when you choose the faction from the list.

I am not that into translating the game but I would sertainly like some flavor added to Denmark.

Keep up the good work. I appreciate it :thumbsup2.

Dude, long story.

Short version: My farfar is Danish my farmor is Swedish....my mor is Australian (Yep...) and my far is Danish/Swedish. My morfar is Australian but my mormor is a Swede who moved to Australia.

I consider myself more Danish than anything else, though. It's confusing, I know. But nonetheless, I am proud of being a Dane with Australian and Swedish blood, as well. Plus I needed to take up space in my siggy so I decided what the hell, I'll put in the Swedish userbar, as well. :P
 
Re: Ingame Danish Text/ Dansk tekst i spillet :)

Thanks
I'm also looking into making a description to the Danish faction...
But problem is that there is about 20-30 lines in the text where it says "Not Playable" So i would have to give them numbers, then start the game and see what number Denmark have... And then find it in the text... And then come up with something to write.
Hmm maybe it could be ("A nation just waiting to take over the world") :tongue: nah... It have to be some historically correct i guess :hmm::cool: If you have a suggestion then PM it to me or write it here ;)

:eek: Thats very confusing to me lol :tongue:
 
Re: Ingame Danish Text/ Dansk tekst i spillet :)

Would have been more confusing if I used grandfather/grandmother in English. At least with "farfar" and "morfar" etc, you know which is which. :P

Hmm I am not historican expert I am afraid.
You should ask some of the dudes who posted here: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=118773

I wish empire modding was at easy to understand like rtw and mtw2 cause then I would be all in for giving Denmark/Norway a makeover.

I wonder if we can give them danish voices in the future :hmm:
That might be a fun project.
 
Re: Ingame Danish Text/ Dansk tekst i spillet :)

Re: Ingame Danish Text/ Dansk tekst i spillet :)

What you should look at is the ui (user interface) ;)

Danish description (Just made it quickly to see how it would look):



Actually when i gave all these "Not Playable" texts a number, it showed that Denmark was number 1! Hehe CA certanly know wich country in the world is the best (or happiest) :P

Other:











Not much to look at in each pic... But it shows how long i am in the project :)
 
Re: Ingame Danish Text/ Dansk tekst i spillet :)

It will be some time before the release because i don't have that much spare time to make it
+ there is more than 1000 lines of tekst to be translated, and much of it stands there again and again

Re: Ingame Danish Text/ Dansk tekst i spillet :)

can you help me? where are text with nation names?

They would be in the patch_en.pack (if you installed it in english i guess) file under text>localisation.loc and then in the tag "factions_screen_name_nationname" e.g. "factions_screen_name_austria" ;)
 
Re: Ingame Danish Text/ Dansk tekst i spillet :)
