Hello.
there is a question about SCP.
SCP have plan to allow multi languages? (It contains 2-byte language like japanese, chainese, etc...)
(I think demand font will be prepared by each translation project when allowing multi languages.)

Reference:
can download japanese ver SCP and source (but these are very old build) in this page.

Only if people volunteer to translate it.

The JP translation was great, but the guy who did it vanished.

hmm...
so it's now SCP don't have plan of multi languages,
and implementing code of multi languages is not scheduled.

but if someone starts transration project, it's will be implementing.

it's ok?

SCP already supports multiple languages, but only a few of them (English, German, Polish, French) and some of those are partial only.  Better font support is needed (and on the way) but the main thing is that we actually need people to translate, test, and bug report everything.  We pretty much only have English and German users here so those are the two languages which work the best and no supported language requires a special builds to work (a requirement for real multi-lang support).  Other multi language projects are fine, but if we don't have acess to the code or that code is dirty (requires special build to function) then that doesn't really help SCP any.

Anyone willing to help out with better i18n support is welcome here though.

[Arkblade]

ok, it understood.

Thank you for answering my question.

SCP even has a little support for Klingon in the tables. Boolean fields may be answered HIja' or ghobe'.

Code: [Select]

Searching for 'ghobe'...
C:\projects\fs2_open\code\parse\parselo.cpp(2119): || !stricmp(token, "ghobe'")) //Klingon
1 occurrence(s) have been found.

you nerds ...

Oh and http://www.geocities.co.jp/SiliconValley-PaloAlto/8376/files/fs2komet_src_20030324.zip seems to be the source for the EXE (the OP mentioned source was there).

[taylor]

... seems to be the source for the EXE ...

Yeah, but it's based on what exactly?  It's hard to make a good diff if you don't know what to diff against, and I'd hate to have to figure out all of the changes by hand.

[Inquisitor]

It's based on a REALLY old SCP merge, probably about 3-5 months after we started. I could probably figure out which one if I searched back posts, he posted here when he did it.
