ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Bonjour,

Je suis Français et je souhaite jouer à TOME en français.
Ma question est : y aura t'il une traduction de ce merveilleux jeu?
Si ce n'est pas possible, puis-je traduire le jeu et avec quel programme? Merci

Hello,
I am French and I wish to play TIME French.
My question is: will there be a translation of this wonderful game?
If this is not possible, can I translate the game and with what program? Thank you

I don't think there are plans to officially translate the game to any other languages. (Though should darkgod offer alternate languages, I'm sure that many users would jump at the chance.)

That said, there have been addon's produced before which translate the game into another language. Either looking at an existing one, or knowing enough lua to make the structure for one yourself (or finding someone willing to work on it) means it's possible to translate much of the game, just by dropping in appropriate text replacements. It wouldn't be the easiest undertaking, but there are both chinese and korean translations in that fashion, iirc.

BTW, translating this game into another language will be a hard work, you'd better have some knowledge of LUA and addon designing, and have a team to help you translate texts that consist millions of words in this game.

I thought dg is French himself!
