Translate Elma

Post by Vibi »

j0.. I want to make a german elma12.exe.. i am using a hex editor and it works fine.. :) but if a german word is longer than an english word i can´t translate..
example: options (eng) = optionen (ger)
and.. is there a way to add the Ä and the Ö to the elma font file..?

i know that the translating thing is hard work.. but i love the game.. 8)

would be s0 nice if somebody helps me.. =)

first, this has the same problem as with a hex editor, you can't get longer texts.
second, this only works with version 1.0

so not very useful, ok. :roll:

Ofcourse that doesn't work, because then the entire offset is wrong!
