Do you speak another language? In order to better support non English-speaking players, we're looking for talented linguists to translate SourceForts into all the languages spoken by our fanbase. While we can't guarentee you a position on the team, we are still looking for active testers/contributors.
We have a pretty wide fanbase internationally, and although members of the team speak several languages, we're looking for native speakers of the language to provide the translations. Go ahead and send an email to
info@sourcefortsmod.com with the subject "Translation - <language>", filling in <language> with the chosen language of translation.
Edit: We've been totally inundated with
German translations at the moment, so until we decide which we're going to use/if we're going to merge some of them, we aren't particularly looking for any more. Danke Schon!
Our current translations can be found in your SourceForts game folder under /resources/SourceForts_language.txt. To being translation, simply copy the file SourceForts_english.txt and edit it with your new language content.
While replacing the word for Soldier with the word for deli meat may be humorous, all translations will be checked before release.
I'd also like to give a mention out to two new members of the development team, Black, who you're all familiar with, who'll be helping out with mapping duties and Xyal, an experienced programmer who's come to help us push towards 2.0.
