Zelda's Adventure Remastered - Projet portage & traduction !

[Threepwang]

JappaWakka I found several images in English: an Interlude with a large hourglass, a Treasure", and the Credits. Should I translate them or do some not appear in the game?

J’ai encore trouvé plusieurs images en anglais : un Interlude avec un grand sablier, un Trésor et les Crédits. Dois-je les traduire ou certaines n’apparaissent-elles pas dans le jeu ?


Are you adding a thumbnail to the credits of the game for Zelda Remastered, the development, and the translations?

Ajoutes-tu une vignette aux crédits du jeu pour Zelda Remastered, le développement et les traductions ?

[JappaWakka]

Okay I've transferred all the translation strings to this file: https://github.com/JappaWakka/Zeldas...StringsFR.json

I also just noticed that in one of the dialogues of (Plain of Donora) Yalzan the Stern, he says:

"The price is now 20 rubies."

He should say

"The price is now twenty rubies."

That's probably important for the translation as in the 10 rubies dialogue, he does say ten instead of 10.

Apparently Kron the Pegleg, the merchant on the Plain of Donora had some cut lines that I want to add in Remastered Mode.
I'll let you know when I finished his subtitles.

As the game features no loading screens, the hourglass image is not used anymore.

I assume the credits are displayed at the end of the game so they will be added eventually.

I don't know what to do with the ADMIT ticket (which is either Ticket 1 or Ticket 2, I can't remember), if we should translate that or not. Because then we'd also need to make the Noise spell and Calm spell sprites translatable somehow because Calm in dutch starts with a K. And those sprites are harder and would require me to do some pixel art stuff to get rid of the letter.

I don't know what you mean by "adding a thumbnail".

You made the introduction and the tutorial in French, but it’s a bit premature because I still have other edits to make. I will send you everything soon.

Yes, the credits are at the end of the game; it would be nice to translate them as well.

By “adding a thumbnail,” I meant a small additional scroll in the credits for the remastered version.
Something like, developed by JappaWakka, etc.

It's just a proposal, but I don't know if it's possible.

For the spells, the translation in French starts with the same letter as the spell sprite.
As for the ticket, it’s up to you, but it doesn’t seem to be the most difficult issue.

[Threepwang]

Capital letters in English and lowercase in French, is that normal or not

In this case, "Clic" is the onomatopoeia of the verb "Cliquer".
But I think that "Clic" is not visible in the menus, so it's unimportant.

The StickClick string shows in for the input menu, for when you press the left or right joystick on a gamepad. The strings get combined so InputNames.Left + "stick" + InputNames.StickClick = gauche stick clic. If this combination is not okay, let me know what to change the parts to (and if I need to add a translation token for "stick").
The font is pretty much all uppercase letters (just different looking uppercase letters whether the typed characters are lowercase or uppercase). So to make sure all input names look similar everything is lowercase.
The first string is the variable with which I'm able to find a language string with code. So if I write "Localize.UI.SettingsMenu.ControlsSubmenu.InputNames.Left" in the code, it would return the second string (after the in the correct language.

Yeah it would definitely be possible to recreate and translate the credits and for me to add an extra page. The pages look really easy to recreate with code, it's just text written in two colors and below that a copy of the same text but black and half transparent.
You're right in that the ticket would be easy, but if I do one, I want to do all items with text as I like consistency. I'll see if I can make some localizable sprites later.

[Threepwang]

JappaWakka I'll look at that tomorrow with a clear head, because I'm getting tired. We are making progress.

If it is only a woman, I use the feminine form; if it is only a man, I use the masculine form. The rest is neutral.

In French, the word ‘Sprite’ is translated as ‘Lutin.’

JappaWakka Can you take a screenshot of the menu with the word ‘Click,’ because I can’t find it?

Peux-tu me faire une capture d’écran du menu avec le mot ‘Clic’, car je ne le trouve pas ?

[Threepwang]

En ce qui concerne le ticket ou le billet, j’ai regardé des photos anciennes d’admission et c’est presque toujours écrit ENTRÉE.

As for the ticket, I looked at old french admission photos, and it always says 'ENTRÉE'.

[Threepwang]

Ticket - Zelda Wiki: "There are two Tickets, both of which are sold by Ticket Sellers at ticket booths in the Shrine of Strength. Both Tickets allow Zelda to enter the area's fields and challenge Ursore's three Knights. The first ticket, which depicts "ADMIT," allows Zelda to enter the field with the red Knight, while the patterned ticket allows her to visit the field with the blue and green Knights."

Je pense que le bon terme est ‘billet’ et non ‘ticket’, qui est un anglicisme, car ne dit-on pas une ‘billetterie’ ?

I think the correct term is ‘billet’ and not ‘ticket’, which is an anglicism, because don’t we say ‘billetterie’?

J'aimerais bien avoir l'avis de Stamparade, c'est juste pour être sûr. Je sais, c'est un détail, mais tout de même, j'ai envie de savoir le terme approprié en français.

De même dans le contexte, le mot "Festival" m'intéroge en français.
"You must travel to a place of festival.".

Ca ne me dérange pas du tout de laisser "Festival", mais je voudrais plus d'avis, car le lieu est sous un chapiteau. Comme déjà dit, ça s'apparente à une fantasmagorie "avec de vrais monstres", sous un chapiteau de cirque. Il y a peut-être un bon mot, plus approprié que nous ignorons.

I just realized that the logos are a video, so I'd have to add subtitles if you want to translate that.
I can't remember if I actually used that legal notice. That font style looks complex to recreate lol.
Does that French word for sprite mean 2D image used in a game?

It's funny because I thought it could be a video. It's not a big deal, at least if one day you want to add subtitles, you already have the French translation

"Does that French word for sprite mean 2D image used in a game?"
Sprite (jeu vidéo) : "A sprite, or lutin, is a graphical element in video games that can move on the screen. In principle, a sprite is partially transparent, and it can be animated (consisting of several bitmap images that are displayed one after the other). The background of the screen generally serves as the scenery, and the sprites are the characters and objects that overlap the background and move around. A sprite can sometimes also move behind an element of the background."

So I think the answer is yes, but I don't know if there are 3D Lutins.

If you prefer Sprite, although it's an Anglicism, it's perfectly acceptable in French. So Sprite or Lutin, it's all the same.



Please, can you take a screenshot of the menu with the word ‘Click,’ because I can’t find it?

I would like to do this verification before finishing the correction of the *.srt files.
It's the final stretch before you take over again for the Remaster update.
