Gates of skeldal, Liberato! Opzioni

[Tsam]

Qualche tempo fa ho avuto l'occasione di leggere che un gioco, gates of skeldal, era stato liberato; mi sono premurato di trovare informazioni per capire che gioco era e ho scoperto che si trattava di un rpg in prima persona. Vado sul sito e scopro che ci sono due versioni del sito stesso, una in inglese e una in ceco.
Qua ( http://www.napoleongames.cz/main.php?langu...&section=21 ) parlano del gioco sul sito della software house, la Napoleon Games, ma del download nessuna traccia. Preso da illuminazione, vado nel corrispettivo in ceco ed ecco per magia comparire il download: http://www.napoleongames.cz/main.php?langu...&section=10

Non mi spiego la cosa..il gioco è libero o meno..; contatto la casa e loro gentilmente, in meno di due giorni mi rispondono:

Hi Roberto,

yes, the Gates of Skeldal is freeware with limited license (no one can
sell the game and no one can get payed for intermediation - such like
cover cd, payed download etc.). The sources of the game are now open
source and you can find them at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/skeldal/. On the other hand there is no
English version at the very moment because the game was published only
locally in Czech Republic. We considering the possibility of English
version so stay tuned to our pages because once the English version will
be ready we will put the notice.

thank you for your interest

best regards

Il gioco quindi è stato liberato, ma purtroppo, a meno di nn sapere il ceco, è dura giocarci.... E' comunque un altro colpo per il fronte di liberazione! ..

Chi vuole provarlo..è ben accetto! ciao

Bella segnalazione, il gioco sembra promettente. Tra l'altro, capita abbastanza di rado di vedere RPG in prima persona freeware.

Ciao,

Sto riportando in vita questo thread nel caso in cui ci fossero ancora alcuni giocatori, che sarebbero interessati a giocare a questo bellissimo gioco in inglese.
/google translator off

Background:
I decided to translate this game as a fan project back in 2013. Back then, I did some halfway translation, but I never finished it and archived the project. Like many other translators did. But I picked it up again this month and I spent some time to find out how to translate everything, including the interface. Today, I present you the first version.

I'm sure there will be mistakes, and some translation solutions (like the menu buttons) are not ideal as I would like them to be. But I want to see, if there are still players interested in this game today in 2018, and if continued work on the translation makes any sense

The Czech fan site hosts an English translation, which was machine translated by google-translator. I took that one, completely rewrote the horrible google translation for ALL texts in the game, and I translated everything else that wasn't translated before:
- all the stat and item descriptions
- all NPC interactions and descriptions
- all Journal entries (including the poem, ugh..)
- all spells
- interface buttons, options, compass and the main menu
- partially translated the big map (there were some..issues..)

My english isn't perfect, so you will definitely find some weird sentences, and I will fix them if needed.

A couple of screenshots:

And the download link (opens up a directory with files), containing the full game (windows version) in Czech, my English translation and a readme.txt file:

The only thing that is NOT translated is the game launcher, some programmer would have to rewrite it in English and compile it. The English.zip includes an installation guide and screenshots with translation to help you navigate through it (its easy, only 2 screens).

Enjoy!

Hi !

I didn't know the game and I'm curious about it: I will try it with your translation. Congratulations for completing it ^^!
I already downloaded it. I hope you'll find someone to help you with the launcher as well .

- all Journal entries (including the poem, ugh..)

Lol, I feel for you XD!

I hope you'll enjoy the game. Be sure to message me you need anything and I'll try to help if I can
