#Freespace 2 mod 64 Bit#
(Bought new this year)Īll were tested on Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium with 4 gigabytes of DDR2 ram. Here is a list of my favorite games that all have good to great graphics that I can run on my cheap 350 dollar laptop. Most people buy better laptops than this one, and I say if I can have hours of gaming fun with my rig's specs, You can too! Likewise, I can in good conscience think of my rig as a Gaming Laptop. The Xbox is considered a Gaming Console, but It won't play all the higher end games the Xbox 360 will play.
It may not play all the newest games out there for 20 but there are Hundreds of Great games it will play. I do consider this rig a Gaming Laptop and I'll tell you why. This is considered to be a weak graphics chip. My laptop has a single core AMD processor and an ATI 4200 HD integrated graphics chip for video with 128 MB of dedicated ram, shared up tp 1 gigabyte. So you have always been told laptops aren't made for gaming.

The SCP engine will automatically treat them as soon as I add them in the mod folder, in the condition I follow the naming rules described above.75 Great Games that run well on a Cheap Laptop
Then I make all my translations in these new files. For my translations I copy original translation files and prefix them with 'fr-', and I keep into these files only the #French section, instead of adding a #French section in the original mod files.

How to avoid interfering with future mod changes?Ī good thing to do is to create your own extended files to be sure it won't interfere with future mod versions. The SCP engine prioritizes the extended files over the original files, and different extended files are prioritized per alphabetical order, which means that if the same string (identified with the same integer) is present on xstr_bta1_d-tlc.tbm, xstr_bta1_m-tlc.tbm and tstrings.tbl, then only the string in xstr_bta1_d-tlc.tbm will be taken into account. How are the extended files managed by the game engine? XSTR("the text to be translated", unique integer) The files containing strings to be translated depend on the mod.Īll texts visible in the game (menus, missions, etc) are stored in different files using the following pattern: So you can copy these fonts to the mod you want to translate, but in this case your strings.tbl and tstrings.tbl files need to use the "Western (Windows 1252)" encoding, otherwise the special characters won't show up! Where are located the files to be translated? This mod uses specific fonts for languages with special characters, without using Unicode mode. If the Unicode mode is not possible for whatever reason, there is a possibility to copy the behavior of the fsport mod translations. If the mod uses a version prior to 19.0, then you will need to change the fonts used by the mod, and hope it doesn't break the mod. If there are errors, then the mod is not compatible and you will have to ask help from the authors of the mod. Once the unicode mode is enabled, simply run the mod and check if there is no error. Inside this file, you need to change/add the following line under '#GAME SETTINGS' section: vp file so you will have to extract it with the tools provided by the community. Most of the time this file is included in a. To enable it, browse the mod files and find the file 'game_settings.tbl'.

In case you want to translate into a language using non-ascii characters (accents, etc) like French for example, you need to check if the mod supports unicode.įrom version 19.0 of the SCP engine, there is an official unicode mode, which can be enabled on mods running with this version or above. If you want to create your own translations, you may want to check the following points in order to avoid waste of time. How to create my own translations for other mods?
Then browse the mod files and copy the translation files in the mod folder, keeping the same file tree.įor example for the mod Between the Ashes, copy the 'Between-The-Ashes\1.5.6\data' folder and its content to: %Knossos location%\FS2\BtA-1.5.6 after having installed the mod Between the Ashesįrom here you are ready to run your tests. Set the game in French language with the Knossos settings. Translations into other languages could also be included in this project. I would be happy to welcome new translators or testers for translations in progress. If you are interested in taking part in this project, or if you just want to know more, you can contact me on the discussion tab of this project, or in the translation board of HLP forums. How to learn more about the project or to get involved? The main objective of this project is to translate as many mods as possible, not to make them better. The mods translated here can be found on the community website. Project to translate FreeSpace 2 mods into French language.
