Hi everyone,

I'm translating Arena to Turkish and I have a few questions.


1- How could you use Russian alphabet in this game? Did you use this program?: http://hallfiry.blogspot.com.tr/2013/10/ar...rena-suite.html

2- Is there any way for get rid of character limitation in exe file?

3- How could you edit template.dat file?


Thanks.

Hello.

You need to contact with Morendil via PM for more details. But as far as i can tell, he's on vacation right now.
You can also check thread below:
Шрифты и кодировки

1. Back in 2003 we were using Rainfall's program to export original fonts as long-sized BMP images, and import modified ones. A decade later our lead programmer Nod found the way to expand font files and use both english and russian symbols in game.
2. Yes. Thanks to Nod again.
3. It's a plain text file. Just don't use the following symbols #%&~@$^*()+|{}"<>`=\[];/ in your scripts. By the way I recommend to translate floppy version (1.06) to avoid random crashes on voiced scenes.

You need to install the above libraries, unpack source files and run convert.py.

A while ago Nod was going to write an article about his tools and reverse engineering Arena.
You can try to contact him, see email in setup.py file on github.

Thanks for replies I will get in contact with Nod.

Спасибо за проделанную работу, наконец-то познакомлюсь с Elder Scrolls. Есть ли возможность изменить название класса, может быть какие-то утилиты? Мне до этого попадалась локализация, где жулики - разбойники, но там полно кракозябр, да и патчей никаких. Как по мне, применяющий разум и силу rogue больше соответствует разбойнику, а жулик как-то не очень силовик.
