Is it possible to translate Pizza Connection to english as well?

[Aladin]

For pizza connection (tycoon) there are a lot of untranslatable icons in the game. The format of the images is not recognized.

https://www.mobygames.com/game/pizza-tycoon

Same for Aufschwung Ost (in addition the d7 are not dos)
http://hol.abime.net/3342
https://www.mobygames.com/game/aufschwung-ost

Otherwise I would like to translate Power Monger in french but the d7 are in non dos and therefore I cannot decompress the executable in it.

Hi Aladin,


As you may know, TransWorld aka Trans World (1990) (Starbyte) is German only on the Amiga. I suppose it wouldn't be too difficult for you to offer the possibility to play this strategy game in English through the processing of some assets from the C64 counterpart version.

As a matter of fact, a couple of unofficial translations were offered when the game was cracked on the C64, one was done by Paramount, check it here, the other by Alpha Flight, check it here.

The installer of the official "Der Reeder" game handles the hard drive weirdly.

Under winuae it tells me that there is no hard drive present.

So to save during the game I had to assign df0: in my manual installation: copy all the d7 and assign the name of the d7

An official WHDLOAD slave (AGA / OCS) would be welcome. IPFs are available ...

[Aladin]

Add OCS UK version

[Seiya]

well done works. now i have Ocean Trader

[Aladin]

ADF version in the zone
OCS 6 disk
AGA 7 disk

(T-Eng) : Ocean Trader
(T-Fr) : L'Armateur

(translation 2021, no update)

There's a thread about it: https://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=8639
There was an English fan translation of the DOS version.

[Torti-the-Smurf]

Thanks TCD but i still cant find the Text in the Amiga Images I am to stupid for that

[TCD]

Maybe one of the coding gurus might be able to help out

[Torti-the-Smurf]

Great idea I think i ask Ross if he can locate the text.

Thanks TCD

[TCD]

Found a working download for the English translation of Black Sect: https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.u...k-sect-remake/ (might be a different one than the one in the thread I linked to).

[Torti-the-Smurf]

Thats cool TCD

I did ask Ross what he thought about the possibility for a English Translation of Black Sect.

Quote Ross:

I'm sorry, but this is not trivial.

The data on the disk is encoded in some way, probably compressed,
and there is no ASCII data in memory even when the code is executed.

So character encoding is non-standard
and you should understand what the code does to interpret them.

Quote End.

Yeah, thats why i could not locate the text anywhere.
So, there will be no english translation for Black Sect.

Well, thats the way the cookie crumbles, i guess
