Mkem Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I just wan't to ask, if i can make the Czech Language for Dark Forces mod (When it will be complete). Can I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fracman Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Of course you could do, language modifications are not that much complicated. You will need a texture with the Czech font characters, and translate all strings. There is one or two place in some script or menu file where the option for Czech language has to be added, then it will work. You can take a look at the Polish translation that already exists in the demo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mkem Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 Well, how can i make that texture? Oh! And if I will make the Czech Language, will I be in the credits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mkem Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 I looked on the Polish translation, then at the polish font *.tga file and it was completly white and there was some "polish.fontdat" file. How can i make a *.fontdat file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ensiform Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 you need a program that lets you view the alpha channel because that is where you will find the characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mkem Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 And the *.fontdat file? What program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fracman Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 this comes with quake3 or quake4 sdk tools. it tells the game engine which part of the TGA texture to use for which character, letter or number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ensiform Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 And the *.fontdat file? What program? You don't specifically open this up. There is a utility with the OJP source that you can convert fonts to the fontdat file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
