Hello everybody,
First of all pardon me for writing on english but I my russian is not very good.
I need help from you guys.Can please anyone tell me is there any Editor for WoG 3.58f with witch I can translate the game to Bulgarian language?Mostly I want to translate the magic spells,magic skills,unit names,resources,hero skills and so on.
I have tried with ERM Script Editor but without any success.
So my question again is that:Is there any other Editor accept ERM Script Editor?
Thanks very much in advance to everyone of you who can help me.
Take care everybody!

I see one way - get *.txt files from h3bitmap.lod and translate them.
Programm for this: http://genadiy.pisem.net/util/ResEdit.zip

Thank you very much for this quick answer.Much aprecciate it,but I have one little problem.
Can you please tell me how to put the translated files back to the h3bitmap.lod?
I open the *.txt file I want to translate with TextEdit but after I make my translations,when I click on SAVE everything seems to be fine.But when I click on the Exit button to quit TextEdit it says"File BUILDING.txt was modified,do you wish to update it in resource.I click OK but when I start the game everything is this in English in the Castle Buildings.

First, as I said, you must get *.txt files to another folder.
Then you can translate and save it.
At last you may put translated files back to the h3bitmap.lod with Resource Editor.

OK.Will do it.Thank you very very much again for all of your help.

You can also put files in Data folder without a need to import them into archives.

Thanks for the advice,but I have one other problem.I have managed to translate most of the files in Bulgarian,but when I start the game I don't see the letters in Bulgarian.It only contains HIEROGLYPHIC letters.What I mean is on this two pictures:
On this picture you can see the HIEROGLYPHIC letters:

On this picture there is the bulgarian letter but I think they appear because the Bulgarian and Russian language are supporting Cyrillic font and as we all now the WoG modification was made by russian dudes.

So the main problem is this.Is there any chance to make it possible the bulgarian letters to appear correctly?Is there any font modification.I have found this:
rutxtfnt.wog witch I think is russian text font for WoG 3.58f,but the problem is that I don't know where to put this file.Is this the file I need to run the game correctly in Bulgarian.
P.S.Thank you some much again for all of your help guys!

May be your problem is this: hieroglyphic letters are in text, which are from original Heroes 3. But in text of WoG letters are normal.
I am not sure, that you can change text of original Heroes so easy.

Thats the main problem yes.The funny thing is that there is Heroes III release in Bulgarian but it's only for Shadow Of Death.

If you install WoG on Bulgarian version, what language you have?

I will try this right away and tell you the result.Great idea man.Thanks.

Nope, it's because WoG dialogs use the default system font.


It won't be any hard. From the title of your file it seems to install also Russian txt files, but since you modify txt files anyway, it's not a problem. To install the file copy it into Update directory and lunch H3wUpd.exe. (don't forget to backup your h3bitmap.lod) *Or* change the extension to .rar and import into lod / copy to Data folder all .fnt files from it manually. Since you are preparing the translation for public, this seems to be a beter way.


English I think. In WoG fonts were changed a bit since some version.

There it is the result after updating the Bulgarian Version to WoG 3.58:

With RED is the hieroglyphic letters
With light BLUE is the Translated letters from the Bulgarian version.

sergroj,Thank you very much for the ideas.Will try them right away.
Aleee,Thanks very much and to you man.
Much appreciate your help guys.

FINALLY!

THANKS SO MUCH TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO MADE THE WOG modification.
THANKS VERY MUCH and to those of you who have made 100% translation of the game.

I have found the RUSSIAN translation files.After I install them logically the game was translated to RUSSIAN.So I used and translate my original *txt files(who are in English) to Bulgarian and then replace the russian *.txt files in the h3bitmap.lod file and the game is in BULGARIAN!

Special Thanks and to sergroj,Aleee and gamecreator for all your help guys.You have made my dream come true.Now I can play my favorite game to my home language.

Take care everybody!

You're welcome
