Question about the A&M Mod

I downloaded it, know its in Russian, but wanted to check it out. I got it running in English. I realize that only parts of the game are translated. I downloaded the files from the FTP. I found where to put some of them, but I was wondering where to put certain character dialouges, such as father Gareth_dialog.h etc, etc. I know Alexus said it would be all DLL, no need to do anything in Program. Just wondering where to drop these files. I'd also like to do some translating (I don't speak Russian, but I bet I could make some headway on the Net somewhere) on my own. So where can I find the dialog files, such as the dialog with the smuggler at the beggining of the game?

Thanks mates! Cheers to AlexusB, et all for making such a great `add-on`! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
What kind of files are they? Normally, the dialog text files aren´t in the PROGRAM, but in the RESOURCE directory, there´s a subdirectory called DIALOGS. So, if they´re C or H files, it´s a good guess they belong in there.
 
They are in the PROGRAMDialogs folder in my game... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Ok, I figured it out by reading the board. They are not C or H files, they are DLL files and you must get them from AlexusB. I'm not a coder, so I have no idea how the game runs when the dialogs aren't even visible, lol. The Program folder basically doesn't exist in A&M.

I'm still not sure where to put the files that are already translated. Maybe I'll do some experimenting <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

They are? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/oops3.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:ops2" border="0" alt="oops3.gif" /> Well, that´s what happens if you don´t post from home where your game is installed and where you can look up such things but have to rely on memory.

This dll thing about Alexus´ mod is somewhat impractical for future modding, but I suppose, that can´t be helped.
 
Hi !! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" />

As long as the dialog is kept in the DLL it can neither be translated nor modded.
However I believe ALexusB offered to share the `un-encrypted` files for translating, but I don't know what became of that.
 
I did it yet

more then 60% dialogs files were sended to one of translating team
But I didn't see any fedback of it <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
So I cannot rebuild `add-on` for english version and give more files to translate.
 
About the game.....what part of the game is not translated yet?? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bookish.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mm" border="0" alt="bookish.gif" />
 
I have no file to repack eng version
so, for me 0%

I create new versions once a month and files can be incorrect work with new ver.
So I need files and I will support eng version and make update for it
 
AlexusB, instead of giving all of your files to one person it would be better if you would publish them somewhere so anyone interested in translating could grab a file, translate it and load the english version up. So everyone could see what's done and what not.
Unfortunately communication between people is sometimes not as good as one would hope.
 
AlexusB,what the files at the ftp. they could be of use... for eng ver? or update
