[QUEST] Multi language - NEED!

[KillHumans]

When player start in game i need option to select:

German
English
Portuguese


And if player's choose german, NPC's start quest in the language german.

Ex. :

Mission Skills level 5:

If choose portuguese:
say ( "Olá, vai aos professor ele quer falar contigo." )

If choose english:
say ( "Hello, go to the teacher, he want to talk with you.")

If choose german:
say ( "Hallo, geht an den Lehrer, er will mit dir reden.")


Thank.

It should be possible but it's a lot of work. I know that Clientside multilanguage is not much work but if you like to display all quests in a other language, you have to write all quests new.

maybe use qf?

 Spoiler

quest endymion begin
	state start begin
		when login with pc.getqf("a") == 0 begin
			say("choose language")
			local s = select("English", "German","Portuguese")
			if s == 1 then
				pc.setqf("language",1)
			elseif s == 2 then
				pc.setqf("language", 2)
			elseif s == 3 then
				pc.setqf("language", 3)
			end
			pc.setqf("a",1)
		end
	end
end

quest endymion1 begin
	state start begin
		when id.chat."asd" begin
			if pc.getqf("language") == 1 then
				say ( "Hello, go to the teacher, he want to talk with you.")
			elseif pc.getqf("language") == 2 then
				say ( "Hallo, geht an den Lehrer, er will mit dir reden.")
			else
				say ( "Olá, vai aos professor ele quer falar contigo." )
			end
		end
	end
end

Its really not much Work..
Create a new file such as locale.lua, insert there your Texts, maybe sth like

bla[1] Eng
bla[2] Ger
bla[3] Sth other stuff
bla2[1] ... going on ;)

and load it in the questlib.lua with dofile.

And save the player's Language in some Mainflag... So create an empty quest named questlang and use everywhere this:
pc.setqf('questlang','lang',1) (Eng)
pc.getqf(('questlang','lang')

I would do it a "little" bit different from this idea (such as loading other locales and using metatables, but.. ) but i think this option is okay for you

i have to go now, in some hours i can write you a system for this - but i'm going to publish it, so everyone can use it.. many people could need this stuff
