Ok, thanks for the correction! 

Well, the error is in the default code of the Tumbleweed template!

It seems that it doesn't work. Still does not change the GUI language when loading a save in another language. However, the rest of the text does change it.

Now I have this in the global script:

Code: ags

function on_event(EventType event, int data) {
  if (event==eEventLeaveRoom)
  if (event==eEventRestoreGame) {
        Verbs.Localize();
        //new code
        if (Game.TranslationFilename == "English") {
        Verbs.VerbGuiOptions[eVerbGuiTemplateLanguage] = eLangEN;
        Verbs.AdjustGUIText();
        }
        else if (Game.TranslationFilename == "") {  
        Verbs.VerbGuiOptions[eVerbGuiTemplateLanguage] = eLangES;
        Verbs.AdjustGUIText();
        }
        //
  }
  if (event==eEventEnterRoomBeforeFadein || event==eEventRestoreGame)
    player.PlaceOnWalkableArea();
}

[EDIT]
I think when it loads the game it doesn't read this code. I have added a player.Say() inside the eEventRestoreGame and it does not execute it when loading the game.


[SOLVED]
That's it. Now it works. The code is the following:

Code: ags

function on_event(EventType event, int data) {
  if (event==eEventLeaveRoom)
  if (event==eEventRestoreGame) {
        //this part here is not executed...
        Verbs.Localize();
  }
  if (event==eEventEnterRoomBeforeFadein || event==eEventRestoreGame)
    player.PlaceOnWalkableArea();
    
        if (Game.TranslationFilename == "English") {
        Verbs.VerbGuiOptions[eVerbGuiTemplateLanguage] = eLangEN;
        Verbs.AdjustGUIText();
        }
        else if (Game.TranslationFilename == "") {
        Verbs.VerbGuiOptions[eVerbGuiTemplateLanguage] = eLangES;
        Verbs.AdjustGUIText();
        }
}

Thank you very much for your answer. Yes, indeed these days I have been able to test it and it has been solved. To change the language from within the game I use:

Code: ags

Game.ChangeTranslation("English");
Verbs.VerbGuiOptions[eVerbGuiTemplateLanguage] = eLangEN;
Verbs.AdjustGUIText();
System.SaveConfigToFile();

That way it changes the language of the GUI and texts perfectly.

But there is still a small detail that I would like to fix. If you load a save game in a language other than the current one, then the GUI doesn't switch languages  either. It would be solved by adding this code:

Code: ags

        if (Game.TranslationFilename == "English") {
        Verbs.VerbGuiOptions[eVerbGuiTemplateLanguage] = eLangEN;
        Verbs.AdjustGUIText();
        }

but I don't know where to put it. It should be at the time of loading... Can you give me a hand?

Thank you!

Hello! I need some help on changing translation in game.

First I must say that the game uses the Tumbleweed template.

I have the default game in Spanish and I have added a test English translation. When I change the translation from winsetup everything goes well. The texts and the GUI change languages and the changes are maintained in the following sessions.

The problem is when I change the translation from within the game through:

Game.ChangeTranslation("English");

What happens is that the language of the texts is changed but not that of the GUI and in the 9 verbs. In addition, the changes are not maintained in the following sessions either.

Let's see if you can give me a hand. Thank you so much!

[EDIT]
I have added this:
System.SaveConfigToFile();
And now the language changes are maintained in the following sessions. But I still have the problem that the language of the 9 GUI verbs is not changed. Instead, it does when I log out of the game and back in.

Well, the medieval street is inspired by real images found on the web. But it really also resembles the street on Meleé Island because of the arch in the background.

Thanks for the support! 

you might wanna adjust the shadows in your title screen as they are not consistent. squirrels vs chair vs table and beach umbrella

True! As a good point & click player you pay close attention to details 

I'm glad you remember my previous game.

Hi!

A few years ago I published here my first adventure game called "The Castle". It was inspired by Maniac Mansion.

Now I want to announce my second project that I'm still working on. It's a new adventure called "The Legend of Skye."

It will be a classic point & click adventure, with the 9 verb system, inventory and lots of humorous dialogues.

It will be available soon on Steam, GOG and itch.io!

Wishlists are highly appreciated!

All the best.

Hi RayManiac,

Great!

I contact you via email

Initially I had only planned Spanish and English. But now there are players who are going to translate it into Italian, and I promise to collaborate in the translation of other languages †‹†‹if they ask me to.

Hi!

@ZakMcKracken, yes, I've played Thimbleweed Park, of course 

Right now I will join the forum 

Thanks to you, @Nor Treblig, I didn't know itch.io

You have the same version and manuals on both platforms.

Thanks @Athanor, I write down the issues you have found, along with a bug that a player has passed me. I hope to be able to release a new version to correct it.

Hi Athanor,

On Steam there is the same walkthough in pdf format. Just click on "View the manual".

Thanks!

Hi!

Thanks guys 

In Steam it has been positively received. All reviews are good. I invite you, if you have played, to write one even if it is bad 

Many people have asked me to hang it on itch.io, so here it is:

https://faldorn88.itch.io/the-castle

Do not hesitate to write or comment on anything you think.

Many thanks!

I appreciate your messages. I am very happy that people enjoy the game. 

Hi Nor Treblig,

Many people are asking me to hang it on itch.io, so I will surely try to upload it in the next few days.

About changing the game title, I was analyzing this idea, but it is a bit complicated to make this change now since it is everywhere like "The Castle". It would give many problems to change the title or add a subtitle. Before on Steam it appeared on the second page, now it already appears on the first

Thanks for your advice, the game has good reviews. I just hope more people enjoy it.

Thanks Athanor for the help. I will think about it and if I see it feasible I will do it.

As soon as I can I will also finish the walkthrough to leave it as complete as possible.

You are right that maybe the title is a bit discreet. When I put it on I didn't think about all this .. Change it now I think it could create confusion. 

I hope that thanks to your visits it will go up to the first page of Steam. 

Hi Athanor,

I have not implemented anything about the DRM in the application upload in Steamworks. I do not want to annoy the players. Before a developer, I am also a player.

If there is any problem write me.

Hi Durq, Athanor,

Yes, that is. And I think those who have followed the previous releases at AGS deserve an explanation. The castle will be officially launched on Steam on August 26. The reason to hang it there is to protect the game and its authorship. In the latest updates, the apostrophe errors and the potions texts in the English version have already been corrected. The rest of new versions and improvements will be hanging by this platform. The game will be sold at a very low price to pay the costs of uploading it to the platform and the headaches that some days have taken me during its development.

I hope that people who have already been able to play it in AGS understand the reason for launching it on another platform.

I can only truly thank people for their interest in the game and positive reception. I will continue working on some improvements and thanks for the support.

AnaMoon thanks for your analysis and the videos. It's really very complete, I've added a couple of things in a comment.
