translation problem

Post by artaxerxes »

Exult Dev Team:

I realise there are places in the source code where you need to hardcode certain phrases (see usecode/intrinsic.cc). The problem is, we can distribute patches but we can't force people to recompile themselves the source (not every user has a compiler). We can't either patch the exult executable since it changes all the time (need to use the latest CVS version with our patches because of 32bit usecode support).
Would it be possible that you create a flex or a flat file that contains the phrases that are hard coded so that we can distribute easily a translated version ?

Thank for your continuous help!

Yes, that is the plan. I'm just not sure when we'll do it.
