Rayman Pirate-Community

I have a problem.. I'd like to actually translate the dialog and menus in the Fire Under Siege game into one or two other languages, but is it worth it? And if so, who can help me out? All I need is the dialog and menu items translated, it'll be logged into an if/select case statement in the game, and the language selection will be remembered in the game's INI config file.

Anyone?

If anyone volunteers, I'll start posting dialog bits here (https://web.archive.org/web/20080424115 ... .com/rosaf) and in this topic... or I'll also communicate through PM's.

What languages are you interested in? We have people from many countries here =)

French, German, and (maybe) Spanish.

Maybe? I know spanish, but I'm not good with the grammar lol. I might be able to translate.... Or someone from RZ can, I know Anti can. ^^

Don't talk nonsense, neo, Raygirl13 is Spanish and I'm sure she can help Phoe.

Yeah, so can Caroline, but unfortanetly she's not here. Hope Raygirl gets on line and sees this then. ^^

I could always ask her on RZ.

I've also been wondering if you all think it would be a good investment to make... since a lot of the Rayman series is pretty international and widely known...

For starters, I'm just going to need the menus translated:

Starting screen:
LOGIN:
Phoenixan A: Open (In desc. at bottom, "Load Game: Phoenixan A")
Phoenixan B: Open (In desc. at bottom, "Load Game: Phoenixan B")
Phoenixan C: Open (In desc. at bottom, "Load Game: Phoenixan C")
Delete Login / Cancel Deletion (In desc. at bottom, "Delete a Saved Game / Cancel to Delete a File")
Shut Down (In desc. at bottom, "Leave Fire Under Siege")

Next screen:
MAIN:
Continue (In desc. at bottom, "Return to the Adventure")
Multi-Training (In desc. at bottom, "Enter the Multiplayer and Extra Maps")
Options (In desc. at bottom, "Music, Sound, Screen, and Control Settings")
Log Off (In desc. at bottom, "Return to the Game Load Screen")
Shut Down (In desc. at bottom, "Leave Fire Under Siege")

Options screen:
OPTIONS:
Music (In desc. at bottom, "Control Music Volume")
Sound (In desc. at bottom, "Control Sound Volume")
Language English/French/German/Etc. (In desc. at bottom, "Change the Game Language")
Windowed Mode / Full Screen Mode (In desc. at bottom, "Change the Display of the Game")

Use Google's language tool, that can help you.

Well, I'm also going to need stuff that's kind of grammatically correct, like the opening sequence with the Shadow Keeper.

I have brought you back from your slumber
after one man put you to death.
Now that man comes back and attacks your home,
and he has friends that come from the sky.
Wake up now.
Defend yourself.
Proove yourself.
Kill those that have killed you.

I could translate FUS into French, and you can be sure there will be no spelling mistake =)

That'd be great. ^^

I asked Pyra, since she knows a little bit of French, but she doesn't know a lot to get everything accurately... ^^;

I could try GERMAN, but i am not about my grammar....

Many members of the Rayman community are Dutch, and I think FUS should also be translated into Dutch

Hey I could do the english

Unfortunately for you, the game is already in English.

And I guess I could see about Dutch... Though I'm most likely just going to use the 3 most common other languages I see.

Good job Hunch.

Sweet. ^^ Thank you!

I found out I should probably worry about this more when the game's closer to being finished now that I realized as I tried out German that my header font is having a lot of problems with the extra symbols... _ _; XD

That is sad.
