OpenTTD 1.0.0-beta3
Posted: 21 Jan 2010 00:15
by Rubidium
Today we have released the third beta for 1.0.0. Again a lot of bug fixes, small features and other improvements.
This release can, as always, be found at:
http://www.openttd.org/download-testing/1.0.0-beta3
We would also make you aware of the following topics related to the 1.0.0 release:
- The title game for 1.0 series 'contest'
- The music replacement project
- We are looking for new/extra translators for the following languages, the number of missing strings as of writing is between parentheses:
- Bulgarian (140)
- Esperanto (508)
- Frisian (1735)
- Galician (137)
- Icelandic (111)
- Ido (3090)
- Japanese (173)
- Lithuanian (128)
- Luxembourgish (116)
- Macedonian (2663)
- Malay (280) (one of the two languages that made an improvement since 1.0.0-beta2)
- Persian (1896)
- Thai (2384)
- Urdu (3019)
- Vietnamese (1769)
- Welsh (111)
The FAQ of WT3 tells you how to become a translator. The languages not in this either have less than 100 missing strings, or are totally untranslated. See the translation status for more information about the current status of the translations.
- The deprecation of the Mac OS X port
Finally we would like to ask whether you can help improve the documentation in the
wiki so our new players have a good and up-to-date manual to help them exploring OpenTTD.
Happy OpenTTDing!

Actually I also translated OpenTTD into Slovenian (just 2 unstranslated strings remaining).

Which I found out after signing up for translating

So the number of missing strings Rubidium wrote above is wrong or is there really 112 left to translate?
EDIT: nevermind then

You can also improve the translation. There're arguably mistakes/inconsistencies to be found somewhere in the translation.

Besides it never hurts if there is more than one person who occasionally looks at the current state of the translation. Strings change and new strings get added more or less frequently.

I agree. Sorry for causing any misunderstanding.

Hi there,
I could translate in Bulgarian.
By the way, what about Greek?
I speak both languages.

I will start translating in Bulgarian after Saturday since I have 3 more exams till then.
sakishrist, направи си акаунт в страницата на openttd и се свържи с Translations Manager с молба да ти даде права и започваш. Аз написах, че съм роден в България и съм добре с английския и получих право да редактирам. Успех.

Please only translate to your mother tongue. That usually means only one language - except for those who were brought up bi-lingual.

I lived in Bulgaria until I was 7 so I think I am doing well enough with both languages.
Току що пратих e-mail.
Edit: Now I'm 18

same thing here
Оставете сложните за накрая обаче, че много от тях звучат тъпо, ако не се преведени добре.

Could anyone translate the non-English for me? I hate to go into these online translators...

It is nothing special, but since it is kinda unfair not to know what is written, I'll short-translate all of them.
Wold wrote how can one make an account, then sakishrist said that he had send an e-mail and I said that they should leave the hard strings for the end, because they sound really stupid if not translated properly.
Back to topic, I translated +/- 100 strings and I'm feeling happy.

Hi, when i try to install the game it stops halfway and says "Downloading of OpenGFX failed", "Downloading of OpenSFX failed", "Downloading of Nosound failed".
Any ideas why ?

I would be happy, and I would translate, but without an OSX binary to test my translations (as I use specialist translation software for English - Welsh Translations which is free on OSX, £50 on Windows) I can't.
I've asked my colleagues over on the Ubuntu Cymru Localisation team, and the Ubuntu Welsh Translators, but obviously nobody has stepped forward. I shall mention it again.

@swedle
Is this a home install? Or are you testing it at a college/workplace?

If tour behind a coreperate or school firewall it won't let you download them through the installer. You will, unfortunately, have to download them seprately or try at home.
