Any way of translating it?

[focuz]

The Review was very well written, however since everybody is looking to mod it, and I am blessed with a rather extensive soft and hardware setup I figured I'd offer to help.

So no, I do not think this was the wrong topic

Hehe, im sorry! i missunderstanded the text! Great to hear that you already are looking if it available to mod!

Yes. The game can be translated into another language. It's just like EM4, there's the Lang folder with a load of .xml files inside. I've just finished translating the tutorial and it works.

But I have to wait, it wont let me pay on the direct link site

How are you trying to pay for it? I usually use a debit visa card, however this time round a different screen appeared from a 3rd party company saying they carry out the transactions and my bank doesn't allow international transactions. I simply cancelled it and then tried again and the Santander secure payment screen appeared, allowing me to pay them.

hunter42, first off my compliments for writing a review of such quality! Amazing!

If you want I can help translate the game. I myself lived in Germany for 4 years as well as in an English speaking 'country' for 3 years.
Hope those experiences come in handy when translating the game Just let me know!


EDIT:
You're gonna have to send the lang files to me though. I recently purchased some new stuff and have exactly 1.43 Euro's left on my bank account... I guess that's not enough to purchase the game haha

That would be a big help. all i'm doing is using google translater then fixing up what it says I'll PM you regarding it.

EDIT: I'm currently looking through commands.xml, and there's some interesting commands. "Call dog" "attach firehouse" "searchlight on" - looks like you might be able to play as different emergency personnel. Unless it's commands left in by accident after they cut the idea.

Who needs english?

I don't know, but I'm sure I'm doing a few persons a favor by translating it

[Grim_Wizard]

Lol, hey if you guys need any help translating send me some stuff, be more then happy to put my German speaking expertise to use.

EDIT: Anyone know if you can change you or your partners name?

When you start a new game, you get the option to change their names.

I noticed the following thing when translating the main menu though:

<string name="ID_STATIC_MODS">Modifications</string>

Good sign?

[hunter42]

Don't remember seeing a modifications button on the mainscreen (wasn't looking for one though)

Could be a later update or something. There's a lot of mention of fire related things throughout the .xml file.

Are the rettungsdienst and adac the only other services ingame?

Also hunter did you name your guys "Hunter and Gerard?"

If you don't include the police van, then yeah.

I stuck with the default names because I didn't think I was going to play it for very long. Gonna start a new game with those names though

[Grim_Wizard]

Remember I'm male and you're female loololllololoololololololo anyways I'll have to get this when my new computer gets in.

<string name="ID_MAININFO_CREDITS">Credits: Erfahren Sie, wer die Macher von EMERGENCY 4 Deluxe sind!</string>
<string name="ID_MAININFO_BACK2WINDOWS">Zurück zu Windows: Beenden Sie EMERGENCY 4 Deluxe und kehren Sie zurück zum Windows-Desktop!</string>

Looks like they just copy/pasted many of the strings from Emergency 4 Deluxe. That's probably why there was stuff like 'Call dog' and 'Searchlight on' in some of the strings.

[Grim_Wizard]

Yeah I didn't want to ruin you guy's fun, it was the same thing for EM2012

[TacticalRooster22]

I still wish it was in English. Maybe looking at some Rammstein videos and a little translator app on my iPod, I could put some stuffs together.

[Multibullets]

Hunter42, GerardTIII and I are already working on a translation

[Reece.c]

Looks like a cool game to mess around with, disappoints me that they still took bits of code from em4/2012. I tried to find any software that could convert the .model format and there seems to be none in existence. I'm pretty sure its an exclusive in-house format it will most likely be sometime(if at all) that we see a plugin or some sort of program like zmod that can handle it.

[Voodoo_Operator]

As stated in the readme, if you have an ATI radeon graphics card, then anything above the medium setting will result in a bright white screen and you won't be able to play the game (they weren't kidding either). To fix it, you have to install older drivers.

Wow. Just... wow.

Instead of having a competent team of developers make a decent game, they'll point out the flaws in the readme and say "deal with it".

That's the definition of garbage right there.

To be honest, the police woman is a bit more useful.

But still too dumb to be left dealing with the gun, BA-ZING.

Sorry.
