Perhaps you know about the german translation project called "vegadeutsch".
for the version 0.4.3 we have an installation-script for windows and linux,
jyou just need to start the script and follow the instructions.
You can find it here:
http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/forum ... php?t=7401
or on the sourceforge.vegadeutsch side:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... _id=177193
But now we made a big effort with our project.
Halleck putted the entire vegadeutsch-translation-package into the following file:
http://vegastrike.svn.sourceforge.net/v ... sch/0.4.3/
O.K. he forgot to mention "Rockstar" and "To Megatherion", who did 66% of the translations,
but there is the file changelog-file, where there is listed exactly, who translated what.
Now an instruction from Halleck, how to play Vegastrike-SVN in german language:
Sounds complicated, but it works, I didn't tried it that way.For the record, I've commited the entire Vegadeutsch translation package to /trunk/translations/deutsch/0.4.3
I was looking for a way to have clean, modular translations using the mod technique. That is, placing the files in {Vega Strike data directory}/mods/de and starting vegastrike with the -Mde option (-Mfoldername for any mod). Currently this works if you want the translation (if you copy/symlink factions.xml in) but it breaks the regular english version- the only way to *not* have the german files load is by relocating them.
I'll look into ways we could define new behavior for the engine to help the modular loading of translation packages. But if you *want* the translation pack this is a good way to install it cleanly.

I hope we can soon stop the german subproject.
Only the news and some small things are not translated,
but this was also because a little bit, because of our frustration,
I mean all this files were known in the beginning of this year (january).
Perhaps nobody read the postings in the Translation part of this forum.
I hope and think , now with this effort, the news are translated until end of october.
Have a lot of fun.
Thanks a lot to Halleck
