I'll mark that as important untill there's an official Release.
For downloaders: You can download the Stranded 2 Alpha 0.0.2.0 Engine here. You have to download it before you install the English translation. (if the downloadlink doesn't work, go here and select s2a00xx with the highest number)

@bizzl: I haven't looked at everything up to now but what I saw was: Why's the bird called 'bat'? I also found the slingshot still called 'Steinschleuder'. Last thing I explored: The two last Buttons in the ingame menu shouldn't have the same name. (E: 2xClose, G: 'Schließen', 'Beenden')
But of course it's very nice and helpful for the English gamers here.

1. It looks like a bat. That's why.
2. Odd. I'll correct this in the 0.0.1.8 release
3. Do you know another word for 'Beenden'? I don't. Perhaps I modify it to exit, that should be the nearest.

I would call it 'quit'.

yeah bizzl he is right

I know. But I need some people who hold this up. I'm already 2 releases behind, and I simply don't have the time, cause I'm studying, I have to learn damned C, there's another Mod I'm working at, and I have got a little software project on the run. sry.

I would like to help you. I enjoy translating.

thx. the link above is still working, so you could use at least the strings.inf and the some of the definitions files and just correct the mistakes. perhaps 30% of the files have changed, so you have to check most.
send it to me to so I can upload it if you haven't got some webspace.

I first was lazy for a while, but for about one week I have been working on the new version. I'm translating it all anew, since my style is completely different.
Anybody out there: I'm working hard on it.
Soon the first version will be out, with audio samples spoken by me that the native speakers might be amused about.

My first version is finished. It's more than 10 megabytes of size, because I used a rather primitive method of packing.
If Bizzl could adapt his neat installer to it, It surely would not be far bigger than his version.

>> Stranded 2 v0.0.2.0 in English <

[Remark, November 11-2006: this link does not work anymore, see the last page for the current one]

Alright. Since you foreign tongues are two versions behind, you will now be able to play the adventure for the first time. I've translated all the texts of it.
I also tried to record some audio samples, but... well:
First among, I did not manage to reach the technical quality of the German audio files, though I had a good microphone. There was an annoying whistling that I did not get out.
And I must still work a bit on the pronounciation.

The perfect solution would of course be if one of you native speakers would volunteer to speak the audio comments. Is there anyone who dares...?
It's not much, as you will see. Just 19 audio clips of very short length.

Please write down all mistakes or stylistically strange solutions that you find and tell me! Good translations can only be done with the help of native speakers!

You mean the batch or the recent installer?
the recent one isn't much of work, simply copy your mod to a separate directory with "mods" as name and make via WinRAR a sfx-archiv (rar, solid, best compression) of this directory. thats all i did.
But if you want I'll do it for you and send it via email.
