;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; ; Sid Meier's ALPHA CENTAURI ; ; Dialog box scripts ; ; Copyright (c) 1997, 1998 by Firaxis Games, Inc. ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; ; INSTRUCTIONS FOR TRANSLATORS! ; ; 1) These files must not be saved in "Microsoft Word Format", or they will ; be ruined. They MUST be saved in "Text Only" format. ; ; 2) Please do not insert extra blank lines, nor remove existing blank ; lines, as this will cause the program to malfunction. ; ; 3) But it is normally okay to turn a long line into two shorter lines; ; for instance: ; ; This is a very long sentence; it probably won't fit on one line in German. ; ; is equivalent to: ; ; This is a very long sentence; It probably ; won't fit on one line in German. ; ; 4) It is also okay to have lines be pretty much as long as they need ; to be off the edge of the screen (up to, say, 150-200 characters ; long. ; ; 5) Lines beginning with "#" are control lines, and the FIRST WORD ; immediately following the # should NOT be translated. Subsequent ; words on the line SHOULD be translated. For example: ; ; #caption Hello ; to ; #caption Bonjour ; ; #button Yes ; to ; #button Oui ; ; 6) The "{" and "}" characters are used to indicate text which should ; be displayed in BOLD type. The "[" and "]" characters indicate ; text which should be displayed in ITALIC type. A {} sequence or ; a [] sequence can begin and end on different lines. ; ; 7) Lines beginning with "^" begin on new lines. ; ; 8) Lines beginning with "^^" are centered. ; ; 9) The "$" character indicates a string is to be substituted. The ; $ is followed by the name and ID of the string, as in: ; ; Greetings, $PLAYERNAME1. ; ; In this case, the ID of the string is 1. The name of the string ; is for informational purposes only, so $PLAYERNAME1, $NAME1, ; $STRING1, and $WHOZIT1 are all equivalent. The names themselves ; do NOT need to be translated, although translating them won't ; cause harm as long as the numerical ID is left alone (except in ; the case below). ; ; An important EXCEPTION is that $NUM0 (or $NUM1, $NUM2, etc) ; indicate a numerical value is to be displayed, and $HEX0 $HEX1, ; etc indicate a hexadecimal value will be displayed. "NUM" and ; "HEX" must NOT be translated or their special meaning will be lost. ; ; 10) Sequences enclosed in < > angle brackets are used to perform ; gender and plurality substitutions. ; ; $<...> sequences must BEGIN AND END ON THE SAME LINE! ; ; Here are the substitution forms, followed by some examples: ; ; $FACTION3 = Substitute string 3 ; $<3:has:have> = Substitute based on plurality of string 3 ; $<3:le:la:les:les> = Substitute based on plurality & gender of string 3 ; $<3:masc:fem:neut:pmasc:pfem:pneut> = plurality & gender, includes neuter ; $<3:$FACTIONADJ4> = Inserts string 4 and parses based on ; plurality & gender of string 3. ; $ = Inserts string 4 and parses for the ; masculine singular form. ; $ = ...Feminine plural, etc. ; ; Since English doesn't have have the exciting masculine/feminine ; problem, and no plural problem for "the", there will be cases where ; YOU THE TRANSLATOR will have to add sequences of this type. For ; example, you can convert the following sentences (For "faction", ; imagine substituting any of "University", "Gaians", etc) ; ; The $FACTION4 $<4:has:have> ... ; ; into: ; ; $<4:Le:La:Les:Les> $FACTION4 $<4:a:ont> ... ; ; and convert... ; ; $TITLE0 $NAME1 of the $FACTION2 ; ; into: ; ; $TITLE0 $NAME1 $<2:du:de la:des:des> $FACTION2 ; ; Note that the "4:" or "2:" is important as it tells the computer which word ; in the sentence to take its gender/plurality from (there are often ; several substitutions in a paragraph). ; ; FRENCH translators note that the program will AUTOMATICALLY handle ; the L' and D' contractions for le, la, and de. ; ; 11. English also doesn't have adjective gender/plurality ; issues (rah rah English!) which means you'll need to correct ; those as you go along. There are two basic situations you'll ; encounter. The first is adjectives present in the text and ; used to modify words being substituted in: ; ; the pretty $ITEM3 that $NAME4 ... ; ; which you can convert to: ; ; $<3:le:la:les:les> $ITEM3 $<3:bel:belle:bels:belles> que $NAME4 ... ; ; Again the "3:" reminds the computer to substitute based on the ; plurality and gender of $ITEM3 rather than (for instance) $NAME4. ; ; The other situation you'll encounter is where an ADJECTIVE is being ; substituted in to modify words present in the text: ; ; $ sisters ... ; ; The "M1" calls for a masculine singular substitution (remember, ; English doesn't have this problem so I've set everything to the ; default). Obviously "sisters" is neither masculine nor singular, ; so you'll want to call for the feminine plural form: ; ; soeurs $ ... ; ; 12. GERMAN translators can do the same thing, and simply use ; $<...> sequences with SIX items to take care of neuter forms. ; Unfortunately I don't know any German at all, so I can't give ; you any good examples. ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; #TOPMENU #xs 420 #itemlist #x -5 #y -5 START GAME QUICK START SCENARIO LOAD GAME MULTIPLAYER VIEW CREDITS EXIT GAME #MAPMENU #xs 420 #itemlist #x -5 #y -5 MAKE RANDOM MAP CUSTOMIZE RANDOM MAP THE MAP OF PLANET HUGE MAP OF PLANET LOAD MAP FILE #MULTIMENU #xs 420 #caption MULTIPLAYER GAME #itemlist #x -5 #y -5 New Multiplayer Game Multiplayer Scenario Load Multiplayer Game #SCENARIOMENU #xs 420 #caption SCENARIO #itemlist #x -5 #y -5 PLAY SCENARIO CREATE SCENARIO LOAD MAP FILE EDIT SCENARIO #WORLDSIZE #xs 400 #caption SELECT SIZE OF PLANET #button Random #x -5 #y -5 #itemlist #WORLDLAND #xs 400 #caption SELECT OCEAN COVERAGE #button Random #x -5 #y -5 #itemlist 30-50% of surface 50-70% of surface 70-90% of surface #WORLDTIDES #xs 400 #caption ADJUST EROSIVE FORCES #button Random #x -5 #y -5 #itemlist Strong (Rolling and flat terrain) Average (Hilly terrain) Weak (Rough, mountainous terrain) #WORLDORBIT #xs 400 #caption SELECT PLANETARY ORBIT #button Random #x -5 #y -5 #itemlist 100 million miles (cool planet) 90 million miles (average planet) 80 million miles (warm planet) #WORLDCLOUDS #xs 400 #caption SELECT CLOUD COVER #x -5 #y -5 #button Random #itemlist Sparse (light rainfall) Average Dense (heavy rainfall) #WORLDLIFE #xs 400 #caption NATIVE LIFE FORMS #x -5 #y -5 #button Random #itemlist Rare Average Abundant #DIFFICULTY #xs 440 #caption PICK A DIFFICULTY LEVEL #x -5 #y -5 #GENDER #xs 440 #caption Indicate Your Gender #x -5 #y -5 #itemlist Male Female #FACTION #xs 350 #caption CHOOSE A FACTION #x -5 #y -5 #listbox #button OTHER #NAME #xs 440 #caption ENTER YOUR NAME #x -5 #y -5 #itemlist #button Change Gender Name (Male): #NAME2 #xs 440 #caption Enter Your Name #x -5 #y -5 #itemlist #button Change Gender Name (Female): #CUSTOMNAMES #xs 440 #x -5 #y -5 #button Restore Defaults #caption Customize Your Faction #TIMECONTROLS #xs 400 #x -5 #y -5 #caption Select Multiplayer Time Controls #USERULES #xs 440 #x -5 #y -5 #caption GAME RULES #itemlist Play With Standard Rules Play With Current Rules Customize Rules #RULES #xs 440 #x -5 #y -5 #caption Customize Game Rules #button Standard Rules #itemlist Higher Goal: Allow Victory by Transcendence.

As a new era dawns on Planet, the human colonists must deal with both the emergence of five new factions, and the arrival of a new alien threat. In this demo you can experience both of these new events, by playing a 100 turn game as either the new Nautilus Pirates faction or as the Manifold Caretakers, one of two new alien factions. In addition, you can choose to play five of the original seven factions against these new threats. ^ The full version of Alien Crossfire lets you play through the entire expansion pack, including seven new factions, along with new Secret Projects, base facilities, unit components, native life forms, and much more. The full version also includes considerably more art, sound, music, and animation. For more details see the splash screen when you exit the game. ^ To begin the game please select either "Quick Start" or "Start Game" from the menu which follows. ^ © 1999 Electronic Arts.

Enormous maps which also contain huge world spanning continents are particularly problematic for performance, because of the variations created for the pathfinding code. Continue anyway.
