Czech

[tomas666]

czech version is complete!
i have also created fansite, so the most up-to-date version of this czech translation can be always found there.

http://www.heroesofnewerth.cz/?q=cestina

authors: tomas666, Stejfick, Trib, k0k0
i will take care of all the updates and corrections. thaks to the other authors for help, without them, i dont know wheter i would finish it.

in the current version of czech translation some letters are replaced with another letters (č -> c, ů -> u, ř -> r, ě -> e) because the game doesn't support czech language/font/whatever it is called.

[TokPhobia]

I doubt adding a new language would qualify as that, quaq.

[IAmRoot]

That's uncalled for, quaq. The more languages there are, the more people will play HoN. If there's more people, S2Games will have more resources to make good patches. Given how many updates their financially failed Savage 2 game has gotten, HoN will be getting massive updates for years after launch.

Good luck with your translation, tomas666. If you need any help with the interface and resource file modding, let me know.

Edit by IAmRoot: I deleted his messages, so this post didn't make sense :).

[tomas666]

i have finished clien_messages_cz.str, but i did not translate commands, i think it would only confuse some players. i translated words between "<" and ">" tags, (such as nick, nickname, message, user, password etc.), i hope it won't cause any errors.
here's how it looks:

chat_command_whisper /whisper
chat_command_whisper_short /w
chat_command_whisper_help ^279*^707 /whisper <jméno> <zpráva>.
chat_command_reply /reply
chat_command_reply_short /r
chat_command_reply_invalid ^279* Nikdo vám neposlal soukromou zprávu!
chat_command_reply_help ^279*^707 /reply <zpráva>.
chat_command_buddy /buddy
chat_command_buddy_short /b
chat_command_buddy_list list
chat_command_buddy_list_short l
chat_command_buddy_list_message ^279* Vypisuji přátele...
chat_command_buddy_list_none ^279* Nemáte žádné přátele.
chat_command_buddy_list_help ^279*^707 /buddy list.
chat_command_buddy_message message
chat_command_buddy_message_short m
chat_command_buddy_message_help ^279*^707 /buddy message <zpráva>.
chat_command_buddy_add add
chat_command_buddy_add_short a
chat_command_buddy_add_help ^279*^707 /buddy add <přezdívka>.

i hope it's all right, if not let me know and i will correct it.
PS: Tab doesn't seem to work in this forum, but there are big spaces between chat_command... and the other words

Have you saw czech version of DotA? It sux

this is not DotA. and plz stop spamming this topic with your useless messages.

[tomas666]

game_messages_cz.str is complete. it's easy to understand, but quite difficult to translate. ******* czech grammar.

[IAmRoot]

Good job on getting game_messages_cz.str complete. If you'd like, I can help you on modding the main.interface.

[quaq]

I was making my own czech translation, I even put a flag inside it.

Riiiiight...You insult another person working on the very same translation you're making because you think it shouldn't be translated into czech. Sorry. Don't buy it.

[tomas666]

i was testing my translation, but i have come to a problem. charaters with ´ symbol (á, í, é, ú, ó) are showed as they are supposed to, but characters with ˇ (š, č, ě, ř, ž, etc.) symbol are replaced with a white square. i guess its because of the wrong font. i tried to add some czech fonts, the appearence of the characters changed a bit, but the white square became even bigger. i dont know what to do, can you help me plz?

Make sure you're using UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoding. I'd use Notepad++ or a similar technical/code editor.

Check your console, too. You may be getting an error that the fontmap is full.

I've cleaned up this thead a bit, too.

[tomas666]

i use notepad++ and i set UTF-8, but it doesn't help. also there seems to be no error record in console.log. i will finish the translation, upload the files and i hope you guys will resolve this little issue. :)
here's console.log: http://www.edisk.cz/stahni/06888/console.log_90.54KB.html

Well, I just got into the super testers group, so I should be able to get much faster responses to my questions. The Thai translation is having the white boxes problem, but is running out of room on the character map. Could you upload what you've gotten done so I can do some testing?

[quaq]

Just don't use ˇ write it without, most don't use them anyway.

[tomas666]

i have uploaded some files, i think i will complete interface_cz till the end of weekend (i also have some other things to take care of). entities_cz is soo long, i will translate it during next week.
do you know when HoN will be "complete" - final version?

lol. Didn't even see them. Do you have your main.interface and font, too?

[tomas666]

main.interface: http://www.edisk.cz/stahni/46079/main.interface_38.48KB.html
font: http://www.edisk.cz/stahni/80981/damase_v.2.ttf_879.16KB.html - autor claims, it's a czech font...
-----------------------
PS: you have only downloaded game_messages, haven't you? try to download interface too, the problem can be seen clearly then. with game_messages, you can only see the problem when connecting to chat channel (or maybe creating a clan etc.)

[IAmRoot]

Jason needed to add a line to enable the "latin extended a" character set and also for the "thai" translation I'm giving technical assistance for, too. Keep up the good work translating. It should work next patch.

[tomas666]

i have translated interface_cz.str, as promised. but the last file, entities, i guess it will take me at least two weeks unless someone helps me. btw. do you know, when the next patch will come out?

[CZIvo]

i cant understand it sorry..
when i install czech translate, change necessary files, etc etc, i see no symbols ĚŠČŘŽÝÁÍÉ i see only little white cubes.. can anyone PLEASE send me modified files with this settings, because im not sure when i make any mistake.

[IAmRoot]

They're coming out with support for those characters next patch. They had to extend the range of characters loaded. There hasn't been any word on when the next patch will come out, yet.

[CZIvo]

aha :( thx :(

bude to opraveno v dalsim patchi, uz sem to zkousel vyresit jinak, ale nejde to. jinak jak se ti libi cestina? asi zatim nic moc, ale spoustu veci poupravim az to bude cely hotovy. btw. nechtel by si mi s tim pomoct?

[CZIvo]

no, ja sem to moc nezkousel..ty bily kosticky me dost odradily tak sem prehodil spatky na EN..

rad bych pomohl, ale nevim jak.. museli by jsme mit nejake SVN aby jsme delali upravy online, anych ja neco pul dne neprekladal a tys pak nerekl ze uz je to hotove :D

[tomas666]

to je jednoduchy, je potreba prelozit soubor entities, v pripade zajmu ti ho klidne poslu. a udelal bych to tak, ze bysme si rekli treba - ja prelozim radky 1-500, ty udelas 501-1000, pak se domluvime, co dal. on ten preklad neni tak tezkej, hlavne jestli si hral dotu, ale akorat je toho hodne, kdyby si mi mohl alespon s casti pomoct, hodne by mi to pomohlo.

[CZIvo]

hral jsem dotu, dostal jsem se sem prez beta testing icefroga ;)

[CZIvo]

oukej zitra na to mrknu.

[Safi]

Cau, chces jeste pomoc? Kdyztak mi napis PMko :)

[tomas666]

sry i am posting it so late, but the patch didn't fix all the problems with fonts. true, there are no more white squares and some letters can now be seen, however, letters - ě č ř ů - do not work, they are replaced with space. is it just my problem or is it because of the patch?
and one more thing. after every patch, the content is changed somehow, guys from S2 put that new or changed things right in the middle of the .str files. is it possible to put it at the end of those files? people who translate HoN have to search those files for new or modified things, if it was in the end of those files, it would be much easier.

[IAmRoot]

If you want to see the differences between versions, I'd recommend saving the english version from each patch. Then, you can use a diff tool on them, for example, WinMerge.

[schmaker]

Is there some good reason to not use .po files as (for example) opensource projects does? It's much easier to edit, tagging (fuzzy strings and things..) allowed and in comments can be context of phrase. I think it would be much better in every way.

[Pokemaster]

Will you continue?

[tomas666]

of course, i am still working on it. several people promised to help me, but in the end, none of them transtlated anything, so i only lost some time because of this. the only thing to be translated is items' descriptions, i am not sure how much time it will take. but dont worry, i never leave unfinished projects, i think it should be completed within a week or so.

[tomas666]

Hello, I am helping tomas with updating czech translate. Today I translated updates in v0.1.62. Until this patch we were using the translate without some problem letters like řčě etc. But today, after 0.1.62 we can't use letters which didn't make any problems before like ???. They are shown such as white squares.
S2 Games: You promissed months ago that you will apply support for czech diacritics but nothing has happened:X Where is your goodwill now?
