Default Imperios Espaciales IV (Spanish translation mod)

1055529984.zip

Aquí tienen otra mod que he tenido casi terminada por mucho tiempo, y no había terminado los últimos detalles hasta ahora.
Es mas bien un experimento de cuánto del juego puede traducirse con sólo modificar los archivos de texto.
Y tal vez sirva como ejemplo para traducciones a otros idiomas.
Todos los nombres y descripciones de cosas como componentes, establecimientos (facilities), formaciones, proyectos de intel, descripciones de razas y archivos de discurso, ect. han sido traducidos.
Por supuesto que esto no es suficiente para permitirle jugar a alguien que no entienda inglés.
Todas las ventanas, menús y comandos así como otras cadenas de texto aquí y allá están hard-coded en el .EXE y siguen en inglés.

Hace un tiempo, antes de la versión Gold, Diego Mundt me había mandado una versión del .EXE que había estado traduciendo con un editor Hex. Había progresado bastante traduciendo todas las ventanas más importantes, e incluso había creado un pequeño programa parche que se aplicaba sobre el .EXE original para permitir distribuirlo.
Lamentablemente perdí ese .EXE que él me había mandado, y todos los archivos de textos adicionales. Tuve que rehacer todos los archivos data para esta mod.

Sé que hay unos cuantos hispanohablantes por aquí.
Por favor díganme sus opiniones, si encuentran algún error en las traducciones y si hay algún archivo más que pueda traducirse.

-Follows the same message in English

Here's another mod that I have had almost finished for a long time, and I have not finished the Last details up to now.
It is more of an experiment of how much of the game can be translated by just modifying the text files.
And perhaps serves as example for translations into other Languages.
All the names and descriptions of things such as components, facilities, formations, intel projects, race descriptions and speech files, etc. have been translated.
Of course that this is not enough to allow someone who doesn't understand English to play.
All the windows, menus and commands as well as other text strings here and there are hard-coded in the .EXE and they remain in English.

A while ago, before the Gold Version, Diego Mundt had sent me a Version of the .EXE that he had been translating with a Hex editor. He had progressed quite a bit translating all the more important windows, and he had even created a small patch program that was applied on the original .EXE to allowing distributing it.
Unfortunately I lost that .EXE he had sent me, and all the additional text files. I had to remake all of the data files for this mod.

I know that there are some Spanish-speakers here.
Please tell me your opinions, if you find some error in the translations and if there is some other file that can be translated.

This is interesting. I don't speak spanish, but still it's neat. A lot of the buttons have bitmaps that could be translated. It would make the mod a lot bigger I guess.

I had posted this in the 'hola busco gente' thread, but I think that the official thread of this mod is the appropiate place for Last Version od this mod.

Cool idea. As far as the hardcoded strings: it could be considered a feature request for SEV to put all text in external files. It's not that difficult to program but it could mean a lot of work for Aaron because he would have to use unicode enabled functions to accomplish this. And if he's not using the unicode string manipulation functions, he would have to replace the old function calls by their unicode equivalents. But it would allow full modification/translation of the text in the game! Now that would be cool.

I would be happy make a spanish translation of the STM. However I do not speak spanish and would not be able to do it justice. I therefore give support to any one who would like to do such a translation for the mod.

I thought in Europe everybody was ok playing in english.

Are there really that many people that doesn't know english as to justify a translation?
