Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted February 9, 2021 Aerosoft Share Posted February 9, 2021 Dear friend, thanks for your offer to translate the Vol 6: Step-by-Step and/or the Vol1: Inside the Simulator manuals. If you want to join the team, make a new post there. I did one ("Klingon") as an example. Now if you see the language already mentioned, you can use that topic to coordinate with the other persons. No use to do the same thing many times, right? You can use the forum posts also to keep your readers up to date etc. While I urge you not to do this for the free stuff, we will offer up to three free downloads for a completed manual. Just contact me when you uploaded your manual to the forum post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fynus 70 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 @Mathijs Kok I assume that a german translator is not needed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted February 10, 2021 Author Aerosoft Share Posted February 10, 2021 I for sure need a German version! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Schultz 15 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 @Mathijs Kok Hello there. While I cannot translate the manual from English to another language, I would be happy to make suggestions for clarity in the English text. I would do that by tracking changes so that the suggestions could be implemented or discarded by your team. Would that be helpful? If not, no problem. If so, I will get to work. Thank you. -Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabri91 7 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 When translating the keybind list the keys being used should be changed to the symbol shown on the expected keyboard layout, right? Please login to display this image. US keyboard layout: Please login to display this image. Italian keyboard layout: Please login to display this image.

Leon Andreesen 3 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I can only see the volume 1. So i presume the other (Vol.6) is not online. By the way i start with a german Manual, when needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted February 19, 2021 Author Aerosoft Share Posted February 19, 2021 Should be vol3 not Vol 6. And yes, if the local keyboard is different I suggest to adapt that in the manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawel-d 11 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 @Mathijs Kok Hi. I'd like to be sure about one thing. In the credits section, there is sentence 'We would like to thank the late Captain Andreas Kraft', and I think that english sentence construction refers to person that has passed away recently (or died anyway, even if not recently). So, I wanted to ask, if that's the case. Quite sensitive subject, so wanted to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawel-d 11 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Also, I have a doubt regarding the copyright note. It's legal thing, and I don't feel comfortable translating this. I can try to do my best, but I don't have any lawer to support this, or make sure it's done correctly. So, what's the suggestion? maybe I should leave it in english, and putting some note in polish what it is, and that meaning expressed in English is correct? Besides that, I'm doing good with translation of first document, just need review, one of two rereads and corrections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riskas123 263 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Hey there! With the release tomorrow and my manual almost done I decided I had some time to spare. I didn't want to ruin the formatting by including the text (See immage in post in the VOL 3 channel) so I made an (almost) artifactless template pack for the immages with text on them. The .pdn files are for a program called paint.net (free immage editing tool) and the .png files can have the text added on top of them in pretty much any program. If you're using paint.net simply hide the top layer, use the color picking tool (shortcut: K) to pick the same color as the text in english, press T to start writing and try to match the font size of the original. When you're happy, delete the top layer (CTRL+A, then DEL) and then merge the bellow layers (CTRL+M) the immage can now be saved as a .png and be put in your translation. If you're using any other program, I reckon' you know what you're doing. 1.pdn 2.pdn 3.pdn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
