Well work on translating strings.tbl can be done now as we'll just be using the FS2 version. Any version translated now would also have the advantage of working with pretty much every other mod and TC for FS2_Open since I don't think any of them have ever bothered with a translation project before.
I don't think any of the translations will actually work in-game until someone makes the font required for them available but that's pretty easy if you use the fonttool program (which I happen to have a copy of
here) and I believe the version for French and German (which should also be good for other languages) are available from
here.
Anyway this is a path I've been down several times before. Someone says that they're willing to translate the game but when it comes down to actually doing it nothing happens. Translating strings.tbl is something that can be done now. I'm even going to attach a copy to this post of the most recent version I have. If it gets translated I'll consider getting the rest done. But if no one is willing to translate a file that will make translations available for every single FS2_Open TC and mod including Diaspora I'm not going to bother wasting my time altering the missions so that they can be translated.
