I18N Status
From The DarkMod Wiki
This article deals with the localisation/translation of both TDM itself, as well as Fan Missions.
The I18N support in TDM will only work with v1.07 or newer.
TDM Core
- All the strings in the menu, the HUD, the in-game messages, the different menus as well as inventory items have been made translatable.
- The bitmaps in the various menus are to 98% done, there are actually only about 10 bitmaps left that need to be converted to text.
- The default Doom3 english.lang has been slimmed down (from >5400 to 200 entries), then all the nec. strings for TDM have been added, including a lot of sensible default strings that are either useful or used in FMs (like names for inventory items, speaker names and so on).
- There is a script which can convert old FMs into I18N capable FMs, even matching different translations.
- The translation is currently almost complete for English, Italian and German. Missing are Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, and a few bits from Russian.
TODO
- Adding accented and Umlaut characters to the Carleton main bitmap font
- I18N PK4 files need automatic download support.
