Translating / Re: Where do we translate now?

« on: September 23, 2012, 04:09:50 pm »

All right, I have posted patch #682: https://sourceforge.net/p/ufoai/patches/682/
Can I keep updating this ticket, or do I have to open a new for each update?

Translating / Re: Where do we translate now?

Hi,
sorry for my lack of comprehension, but how do I publish my translation?

I have managed to get the source, worked on the po file with PoEdit.
Now I am stuck at 'git push'.

Do I need to register an account at sourceforge? Or is there another interface, where I can just send a patch/po file?

By the way, the current state of translation process might scare a lot of people away. Surely I am not alone with this opinion.

I guess have done quite lot of wiki translations for the Ufopaedia, but these do not seem to get into the latest builds (2.5-dev, for example).
Do I need to do something else, or the build system will pick the text from wiki?
I interpreted "So you don't have to touch a po file at all..." as needing to edit only the wiki pages.

Windows / Re: Why does the game keep crashing?

I have deleted everything from the base directory, then started the game from command line.
All the files have been generated, now the scrollwheel works, too.
Strange things happen these days...

Hi guys!
My problem seems to persist with the 2.4 version. Had it with 2.4-dev, now with the stable one, too.
After I install the game and start it for the first time, the computer switches to a black screen and freezes.
I have figured it out that something seems to be stuck with the post-installation processes, as the game's base directory is completely empty, except for a 0 length ufoconsole.log. By the way, it stays so, and the game never starts.
I managed still to start the game by copying the config files from the old 2.3.1 version to the base dir, but now mousewheel doesn't work with the geoscape (globe view). I will look up how to configure the mousewheel manually, but this is very user-unfriendly.

Are the config files supposed to be created at first game start? What might I do wrong?

Hi!

I'll try to pick up with the Hungarian wiki translation, as the other guy who did it has not contributed since 2006. I need to say though, he did a job of excellent quality and translated a lot of entries.
My time is limited and progress is slow, so please be patient (I did about 5 entries in 2 months).
My latest work is the Bolter. I took some liberties with the translation, so Hungarian speaking fans: suggestions are welcome!

Bugs prior to release 2.4 / Re: Buglist 2.4dev Mar 9 2012

Oh, it seems the problem was that there were no files in the base directory except ufoconsole.log.
I copied config.cfg and keys.cfg from the 2.3.1 directory, and now 2.4-dev runs too.

Aren't these files supposed to be created at installation/first start?

I too have been wondering, why on earth can't I build PB rockets for the rocket launcher, if the technology exist for the grenade launcher.
It just does not make sense.

BTW, rocket launcher was one of my favorites in original X-COM.

Hi!

I have a somewhat strange problem with the version 2.4-dev, recently downloaded (ufoai-stable-win32.exe).
It won't start. When I click the shortcut, the screen goes black and my computer locks up completely.

My system is: Windows 7 64bit on Core2 Duo E7300, with AMD HD4850 with the latest 12-3 Catalyst driver.
I cannot provide any log file as ufoai.log is empty.

Note: 2.3.1 runs fine, and I have installed 2.4-dev right beside it. Maybe that is the problem?
COMODO Firewall and AVG Antivirus is also installed, but I doubt this could cause the blackout.
