Hello,
I create a new thread about translation.

Version 2.0 (Warlords) :
Translation has not yet begun... We'll perhaps begin when beta is ready...
For future translations, have a look here (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=144615). It doesn't give exactly the final translation, but it could help us to go faster...

Version 1.6 (Civ4) :
I translated in French the "Second Revolution 1.6" MOD. Other people translated or actually translate it in other languages (files are here (http://photographisme.free.fr/civ4/second_revolution/)).
Actually available : English, French, Spanish and Italian.
I search other translators in other languages to enable people of many countries to discover this MOD.

I put messages on several forums :

Second good new in the same post !! Great.
Waiting for news from you...

Spanish translation :
Kelzad (http://apolyton.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=157308) has began the jod...
I hope he'll write some news soon on this forum...

this is great!

And Italian translation could come soon ?...
Just look Here (http://civ4.altervista.org/viewtopic.php?t=209)
I'm waiting Pianedimorro contact me.

Italian Translation :
Well ! It goes on. For proxy reason, Pianedimorro can't come here, but he asked me to send him the files for Italian translation.
He's ok to translate and should begin very soon (if it isn't already begun)...


Russian Translation :
Swan works on it. We probably have some news soon....

cool! this is so beyond all of my expectations!

today im rewriting the unit and tech xmls so that they direct to a descriptions xml for easy translations.

Several users (most Frenchies... no comment) contacted me about problems to install the multi-lingual version of Second Revolution (actually English + French and others soon).
I decided to create a "only one" .ZIP file.
It's now downloadable at http://photographisme.free.fr/civ4/second_revolution/.
And I added more explanations about installation.

In version 1.5-1.6 I have seen inefficient use of opportunities XML (i.e. much tags which duplicate texts of original game) is inconveniently for search of new changes and takes a superfluous place in archive which could be used with greater efficiency.

I can optimize text XML-files that the fashion will not be reflected in any way in quality and normal work. After optimization anew to translate already translated parts it is not required - I can give the program which is created to combine specially various translations, quickly and not using "copy-paste".

A question - whether to do optimization?

Thank you very much, swan! :goodjob: I am excited to see the second revolution in russian. i have seen it on one of the russian civ sites for months now, but only in english :(


i am very aware of my previous version's inefficiency. this is due me not nowing anything about XML when i started.

i think the optimization will be okay, but as long as you still leave the full tech tree. in the old (1.6c) version, i tried to make it so you could also play through history and end up in the second revolution (this didnt work too well though).

if you want to translate the newer version, you will notice that alot of the extraneous XML is gone, as i am doing a total conversion based on the 'Barebones Mod' template in warlords.

Oops - at me version 1.6 (not 1.6c) - I ask to send contents of XML\Text folder from the version 1.6c and if it is possible that will be included into the next version - on e-mail: swan<antispam>civfanatics.ru

get the patch here brotha

Italian translation of the MOD is now available : http://photographisme.free.fr/civ4/second_revolution/

Thank's to Pianedimorro from http://civ4.altervista.org/viewforum.php?f=29

Oh cool!

I just went and posted there to thank him!

Sorry.
At me a small problem. My colleague is sick. I now need to work for itself and instead of it. Therefore on translation of time almost does not remain. Wait for 2-3 more days if it is not urgent

I hope your friend gets better soon :(

Hello Swan,
Hope too he'll get better soon.
Don't worry about translation : We are not at factory here ! ;)
We'll be glad to have your translation when you finish... Take the time you need.

Spanish translation has just been added to the MOD (version 1.6), by Kelzad (http://apolyton.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=157308). Great great thanks to him.

Updated files (English + French + Italian + Spanish) can be downloaded here : http://photographisme.free.fr/civ4/second_revolution/

For the v2.0 translation, we should use this : http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=144615. Then, each human translator will have to clean each language translations. I think it'll be easier and faster than translate directly all texts...

that is a cool utility. this will make things very easy for all the diligent translators!
