The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

It's funny how the [a]sexuality feeling depends on whether your native language has gramatical genders or not. For me, an archer is male. I would have to use a different noun (and adjctives, etc.) for female racher, and since we translated archer with the mascuilne form my mind was fixed and now I s...

Hm, I've got a whole bunch of fuzzy messages like #: data/multiplayer.cfg:28 #, fuzzy msgid "&human-lieutenant.png,Loyalists" msgstr "&human-general.png,Loajalisté" after last cvs up. The translatable parts didn't change at all, just some context did. Perhaps the image...

Imagine 10 your units and 7 enemy units close to each other, now how many combinations of attacks are there? And you want to use the best combination, don't you? If you do not calculate best combinations, and opponent does, it can be a big disadvantage. But calculating all possible 10 vs 7 unit att...

Both stance and hair make her look more powerful IMHO. And all the male evish archer units look quite effeminate so if you don't have the female versions to compare to you can use them for both genders. What we had before were more or less gender neutral images. What we have now are female and effem...

Great. Now only if they were translatable.

Sylph is an air-elemental, an immaterial soulless being. Of course you can call sylph anything else, because blah, blah. But it doesn't magically materialize it.

And regarding balanci-- uh, I can see the mighty troll sharpshooters coming to get me, I have to stop ranting and hide now.

There's an image of Elvish Hero where Elvish Captain should be in Age of Heroes -> Rebels -> Recruits ... how can it happen, I thought it was generated?

Which serie? Could you recommend something particularl? Thanks.

I dont see the point, where's the problem? What problem is where? The point is the answer to thread title. Vampires usually don't mix with elfs and dwarfs, that's all. Wesnoth is not based on any fiction directly, so Vampires can coexist with all the other Races that are in the game. Sure. When you...

I'll return to the original topic: what happened to them. They are extremely associal and other fantastic creatures refuse to inhabit the same world as vampires, with the exception of lycanthrops who occasionally agree to, but sometimes only for the purpose to fight the vampires. Or whatever. The fa...

Is there some page in Wiki containing "things that Wesnoth translators should know", i.e. besides the knowledge of how PO files work? Would someone please make it? I added this information to http://wesnoth.slack.it/?GettextForTranslators yesterday. I think things should generally go ther...

Yeah commas are used to make menus into tables. This was probably quite short-sighted and we should have used something else. I guess we can switch it over still if it's really necessary. Well, any change is a change for worse, so now when I - know it's commas what causes problems and why - know ho...

Uhm, currently commas are used for "column separation", but I think we are going to change it to '|' or something like that. I'll talk with Dave ASAP and tell you. @#$%! I've just fixed all offending comma instances to \\, Never mind, it will be much easier to revert it than it was to do ...

I've run cvs up this afternoon and it works again. Who knows why it didn't work....

I'm simply waiting for the new Drakes. And translating TRoW, which is a full-time job (greetings to Shade ;-)
