Dear Dan
First of all, congratulations on your superb software you're programming. I'm sure that it will be a great success!
I have been flightsimming for more than 20 years now (Flightsimulator for Commodore 64 was actually my first computer game) and your addon looks
exactly like the ONE addon I (and many others) have been waiting for. One wonders why MS did never come up with this idea.
Obviously, they have the wrong developpers on their salary list...
The reason, I'm bumping up this thread is the following:
First day, your addon will be available for download I'll buy at least two copies of it.
One for me (probably going to ruin my relationship to my wonderful girlfriend...)
And the second copy will be a present for my little cousin (11 years old). He has been a fanatic flight simmer for 3 years now but I'm afraid he's
not going to understand the texts written in english. So my job will be to go to his house (expectingly several times a day...) and translate all
these texts to him as they show up (I guess this will neither make my girlfriend happy nor am I going to have big success with my FSPassengers-Airline
in lack of time).
So my question is:
Couldn't I help you out by translating the english texts into german? I think that one could leave all the sounds in english and just translate all
the written texts. I imagine you sending me the english text in any format, i'll translate them and send them back to you. You then just have to
exchange the english version with the german. I guess this shouldn't be too big a problem, or am I completely wrong here?
German texts might boost your sales in Germany a lot (as germans are not known to be experts for foreign languages, sorry to all the Germans in this
forum for this side blow! I'm from Switzerland, forgot to mention).
I just think that translating all the texts once and for all (instead of running to my cousins house all the time) could save my time and maybe my
relationship ;-)
So, if I could be of any help (free of charge, of course!!!) please let me know.
Sorry for the novel I just wrote, seems like FsPassengers is driving me nuts already.
I hope Dan won't take reading this post as an excuse for releasing in July only!!!
Cheers!
Pierino
