I keep facing problems one after one >.<
There's only one thing that will fix all these problems: make the game typings go from right to left
(which means, if I type "Happy..." in the english.langdb file, it appears ingame like this "...yppaH")

I've tried the flipping thing...but it led to more troubles:

1- The typings go from bottom to top, like this

(is Guybrush)
(Hi my name) but in arabic lol

2- The 2nd line doesn't start from the very right, but it ends at the very left...like this:
Image

3- If a sentence has 3 line for example, it'll first show the 1st and 2nd (which are the 2nd and 3rd of arabic translation) then it'll show the 3rd (which is the 1st in arabic translation


and maybe I'll face more troubles..
But they all can be fixed if I could somehow make the game type from RIGHT TO LEFT
anyone got an idea?

I've found some files who has the word "text" in their names but I couldn't even open them lol...see them in attachment, see if they can help

Sorry to open the old topic. Telltale game is really famous.

We are a group of Chinese fans. We would like to translate ToMI into Chinese.
We got learn to unpack and rebuild the ttarch file. But we have a problem about the subtitle display now.

But Chinese is 2 bytes language. English is a 1 byte language. We think that might be the problem.

Anybody know how to make this game to run with 2 bytes language? Assemble?

Thx!

As far as I'm aware - it does:

Code: Select all

    version   = fgetxx(fd, 4);
    if((version < 1) || (version > 9)) {
        printf("\nError: version %d is not supported yet\n", version);
        exit(1);
    }

That's strange but I still have problem with Sam and Max 201.

I extracted english.langdb file, edited it and then I wanted rebuild it to SamMax201_english.ttarch. But when I do this, SamMax201_english.ttarch is now only 335 kb instead of 210MB. When I try to launch game, there is black screen. It really gest my nerve.

Could somone check it and step by step explain it to me?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, can anyone tell me how to use ttg tools with dlogs from sam & max season 3?

Here's what I do
1. paste original dlog in "Input" folder
2. Decrypt
3. Translate txt file
4. Put translated txt in "Input" folder
5. Encrypt
6. Paste translated .dlog in "Pack" folder

Unfortunatelly, when i test it, texts are still in english. What did I do wrong?
(strangely, I managed ui_mainmenu.dlog to work, but i dont know how)

EDIT: nevermind. I was editing wrong dlog. But i have another question. What's the font used in game? ttarch has 20 font files, but it containts all fonts used in all seasons
