Title: AGS Localization
Post by: Crimson Wizard on Thu 28/01/2010 14:50:06
Okay, it's simple: people want to translate AGS 3 to russian language.

1. Is it legal?
2. Is it possible to do without hacking executable?

I am asking here in hurry, before they go usual way  8)

1. No
2. No

The AGS Editor is not localizable, mainly because the manual, the forums and the support channels are all in English, so if you didn't understand English you wouldn't get very far even if the editor was translated.

I strongly recommend against using any unofficial hacked versions of AGS, and I will not provide support for any games that are created using such a version.

Hmm, okay.
But I believe it won't hurt if just the manual will be translated?

Not sure I am going to do this myself though, it's lots of work and frankly I think it is written simple enough to be understandable with average knowledge of english...
