Title: game in hebrew
Post by: dikla on Mon 05/07/2004 19:51:32
1. I want to thank all that helped me. it works! i have a game in hebrew.
2. I managed to change everething (massages and dialoge) but I CAN NOT CHANGE "EXIT? SAVE?". where do i change this text when the icon "exit" appears?
because it comes in small squesrs?
3. I want to save my current game which is in Enlgish before i changed the text into hebrew. how can i do it?
(I want to have 2 games - one in english and one in hebrew - but i dont want to make it all over again in english).
thank you! dikla

you can go ahead and make your game in your choice of language, then dumptext to get all your text in a document and change it there for translations.

you may be able to change the Exit in the global messages, or in the button text, im not sure what gui youre talking about? the default one?

I probably was misunderstood!
I just want to save the whole game in englisH. like an option "save game as" even if it is already has a name. cant i give it another name with all the function their like sprites and views and characters? or if I change it into hebrew i cannot save it as in english? (i dont mean just the text).
much simpler - i want two versions of the game. just save it in another name.

I use the default gui with the icon "EXIT". when you want to leave the game, where can i find the text which appears in english ? (somting like: "do you want to save the game?") I looked at the globla script and could not find it.

Global messages 984 - 996 contain most of the default messages like that. Have a look there, and see which ones you need to change.

If you copy and paste the game folder in Windows Explorer, you'll have a second version of your game, which you can change the language of.

Hope this helps.

The "save" and "restore" squares, maybe you could replace any of that text with a graphic "button" image instead, and on the "button" image, you can edit in the Hebrew words as you like.
