A lot of programs have the options to download "Language" packs as options as to not bloat the initial distribution size/update patch size. @JPLRepo or @TriggerAu do you happen to have any thoughts or word on this? Seeing as the language packs are seemingly coming with additional textures to suit, will KSP "patch" out non-required textures for the textures for the languages that are not currently being used as to reduce the RAM footprint?

Cornholio Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Meh, much expected. I'm not sure why people think that something substantial will be announced in this day and age of KSP with this dev group. There are good guys in there, definitely, but the product is basically finished and pretty well polished and a good backbone for anyone willing to mod it.

This is about how I feel about all of this: EDIT: I'm a little tired of being accused of not caring about localization just because I don't want to hear about it in lieu of any other news at all. We get it already. We know it is a huge pile of tedious tasks. Are trying to bore your readers to death exposing them to the same forsaken and barren linguistic limbo, through constant reminders of the same not news? The dev notes for the past few months have honestly begun to feel like a few acts of the play "Waiting for Godot." Which, fittingly, is not originally an English play. But I digress; It feels like some cheap young DJ who is constantly building up the tension without ever giving the dancers a break with something to contrast that. We need a drop, not a *tease without climax. EDIT2: I find it hilarious that in reading most of the first two pages of this thread I did not find one single contest entry. It's too late to keep digging now, will lurk further in the morning. Edited March 4, 2017 by Errol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benji Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Since it's all about localization; are we to expect -native language-d articles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are pretty big communities in French and German (and Portuguese also, no idea why they didn't do that one) that would have enjoyed having their game translated. I don't know about other languages, but all in all, all this fuss for 4 languages is kind of disappointing, from a user's PoV (I know there is a lot of code behind). Hopefully the big part was about implementing the translation API so maybe they'll be able to easily add more to the list later.

Monkey Taylor Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 (edited) MUN RACE: KOVIET UNION BEATS THE UNITED STATES OF KERBONIA Breaking news! The Koviet Union beat the United States of Kerbonia with their specially designed Mun probe. Flight manager Czelski Kerman, who is Kolish said it was easy to control and got there easily; it was the best rocket the Koviet Union ever made. The Kerbonian Aeronautics and Space Agency (KASA) on the other hand, are very annoyed and hope they win the next space race. The launch of the rocket was very wobbly and a minor strut blew up. The rest of the flight was apparently, according to Александр (Alexander) Kerman, very smooth. It is very surprising that the Koviet Union won. The landing of the probe went well and the probe landed on the surface perfectly, however the probe, called MR-1ZA did not have enough fuel to return to Kerbin; so they decided to loop it in the air and to crash it in to the Mun. They also did this with the Mun Orbiter Module (MOM-MY). The Koviet Union Space Agency (KuSA) has planned to send a manned mission to plant a flag on the Mun very soon. KASA were planning to land on Minmus as well, to get double points, but that just slowed them down, making them lose. KuSA were also very smart; docking to the Kerbinational Space Station (KSS-Z387). KuSA sent the information to Kerbin via ComNet, instead of flying it back to Kerbin, the only problem was that the information also went to KASA's laboratories; so they also got the information about the composition of the Mun, and the other munar information. The team was: Александр Kerman, Czelki Kerman, Андрей Kerman, Люси Kerman, José Kerman and Юрий Kerman. A very good team of workers. Jebediah Kerman, said that KuSA would have won one anyway, and that this one was that one. The next space race according to KASA will be the Duna & Ike Base Race, trying to land a base on Duna, and make a probe to orbit Ike.

Considering how much you can change through .cfg files that you can't through a menu, it's pretty likely that there's a setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
