I'll try it in green screen mode too..

Greeting again,

I hope everyone is doing well during this trying times, the English translation for Iron Lord on the cpc is finished but it has not been fully tested and I am thinking on releasing it here for everyone to try and report bugs If someone feels like it.
Admin, would it be agreeable to post here the 4 translated dsk files or would it be better to have an ips patch for every disk?
Thanks.

Gryzor

Oooh nice!!

I think full disks would be better, why meddle with patching?

There it is then,
the main goal now is to see if the game is finishable as it is and correct as many typos, text off screen and justification problems as possible.
A screenshot of any problem will suffice but, a save state BEFORE an error would be excellent  in order to correct and try it right away.
Hope everyone enjoys it, the user Zeropolis was kind enough to try the game to about half way though so props to him.

Great! Would it be possible to translate it to other languages too?

Great news. 

Some minor I found during first 10 minutes. Should we post here or send pm ?

jackic

Thanks SRS, I will be correcting everything soon, about the O instead of W(est) I have not found that particular script yet, and with "Bien" I can change It for Back as I can not modify the capital B.


Keep the typos coming please!


Maybe we can have a half decent version in a little while.


About other languages, there is enough info on this post for anyone to try and do his/her own attempt.

Any updates on this? I was desperate for this game back in the day but it was never released in English. I see we have a beta, did you fix the typos?

Everything that was reported has been fixed, as stated, I am not going to test the game so I need for someone to actually play It to completion and report errors, there is really no point on release anything else unless this is addressed.

I'd offer to do this but I've never played it before and would take forever to do it!

There's a Speccy longplay on Youtube which can be used for reference.

I'm busy for the rest of the month but I can go for it in November?

If there's a new version, I'll give it another going over at the weekend on my Plus machine..

jackic

There's not really an updated version as the current one seems stable enough to play till the end, if anyone familiar with the game can test it to completion, everything that is reported will be fixed but I can't really commit the time to play the game right now.
Keep in mind that there are several instances where text is being stored as compressed graphics and that is way more advanced that what I can do, ie. the archery tournamente greeting or the save/load screen.

betpet

Give me a couple of weeks and I'll do it.  I'll follow the walkthrough on the Speccy and check it all.

Ok, that was more than a couple of weeks.  Sorry! Where can I get the game and walkthrough? I'll go through and post any translation/game issues as I find them.
