[Solved] Translating the client

[brumas]

To translate the texts in th that show up ingame (Like when you execute a gm command, when you create a room, or the one at 'Everyone' box) in the normal updated Th client do i have to edit the .pak files or the ProjectG?

If it's the .pak files that need to be edited, which files would i need to change? (Like, in which folder i can find them?)

Some parts are in the desc.iff file, some in the UI folder in paks and some in Thailand.dat which contain a lot of User Interface texts

[Tsukasa]

All normal texts (like the messages you see during login or the aforementioned GM commands) are part of the thailand.dat.

K, i'll test those, thank you for the info :)

Edit: Ew, that's so complicated, lol ._.

Is there any Thailand.dat partially translated here on the forum?

[bubbastic]

Dude, there is a release topic where you can find translations. I guess this is it!

Omg! This one worked perfectly! It's 100% translated or almost that!

Thank you so much :D

I think credits goes to Tsukasa

Well, thank you still, i'd never reach that file without your help, (unless i started to dig all threads) ._.

Any mod can close that as my problem was solved, thanks :)

The ProjectG.exe Support only English and Thailand

Actually you can use whatever language floats your boat.
You either have to edit the thailand.dat yourself or copy it from another client (if you do that, also copy the korea.dat).

You can also change the fonts to allow other charsets to be displayed (I'm using Arial from the US version to have the German Umlauts). Please note that changing the font may have some unfavorable effects if you still use the TH desc.iff .

Hello ！Tsuksa
I use UltraEdit changed the thailand.dat to Chinese

But when tip garbled landing game
Sorry, my English is poor

我用Ultraedit（一个二进制修改工具）改变了一下 thailand.dat 这个文件里的 Welcome to pangya 这几个文字（就是在输入帐号密码时候下面的提示）
但是我重新登陆游戏时候，发现这几个字是改变了，但是不是中文，而是类似泰文的一些乱码。所以我觉得应该是ProjectG.exe不支持中文的原因。

谁英语好的给翻译一下，^_^！

As far as I remember Diovannel2 said that there was a Chinese Pangya client that ended at season 2 but that the Chinese fonts included in that client work fine on newer versions.

You might want to check that out since it sounds like an encoding problem caused by the fonts used.

Simply replace/add the .wft files from .\2d\font\, change the reference in the ProjectG.exe and try again.

Thanks a lot! I try now!

I test it by Taiwan client season 3，and replace/add the *.wft/taiwan.dat files ！

a22345875, if you do not provide informations about what exactly you changed and what errors you get when running the game, it's impossible to help you.

Here's how I'd proceed (just for reference):
- Grab the thailand.dat and korea.dat from the English string-tables.
- Unpack the Chinese/Taiwanese fonts from the old client.
- Rename the fonts to something like tai01.wft, tai02.wft... whatever, make sure the name is short.
- Repack the latest PAK file; create a .\2d\font folder in it, copy the renamed fonts into it so it'll be part of the PAK.
- Edit your ProjectG.exe, search for the string ".wft" and replace the occurences you find with the filenames you specified, fill up excess bytes with 0x00.
- Edit the English thailand.dat, search for a string you can quickly check (i.e. the Welcome message on login) and modify it to contain some Chinese characters.
- Start the game and see what's being displayed.

If that doesn't work, it probably isn't meant to be.
