Yay for the new translation!

On my first shard I notice a bug and an oddity, probably these are present in the Russian version and so not translation related, but I thought I'd post them here.

1) If my hero (Scout) selects Astral Thief as one of his spells, then in combat the game crashes when the spellbook is open and the cursor moves over the Astral Thief icon. That's when the spell description is supposed to be displayed in the right hand pane of the spellbook.

2) When an enemy warrior hero (local lord) attacked my guards, the warrior cast Soul Trap multiple times but then never used the spirits to do anything. They have defenses 20/40, so they were basically invulnerable walls to my guards. Is this a new intentional strategy? It caused the battle to run out of time, which did avoid the enemy hero from being defeated.

Cheers, Wayne

I can confirm that the spirit inactivity issue is not an English version issue Wink

As far as "Astral thief" is concerned, I cannot confirm a crash. However, there is a strange message in the spellbook "Level of summoned creature is 12". Nobody actually summons a creature, so there definitely is some sort of issue here. Boon?

Fun fact - in russian version it was fireball (I dont remember the last patch and did they change the name). Like, literally, fire ball or ball of fire, depends on how you want to translate. So, translating it as blast make zero sense

Very weird. That sentence comes from phrases.var
So I'm guessing the Russian version is also affected.

The corresponding Russian text is
/554
Name: Уровень призванного существа;

Could you test by replacing phrases.var with the Russian version?

Original Russian text:

23. Взрыв
#Круг 2.
Школа: Метаморфозы.
Наносит 7 единиц магического урона всем воинам в радиусе 1 тайла.
Повреждения увеличиваются с ростом силы мага.

Клубящийся шар огня заметно издалека, так что у цели есть время на короткую молитву.#

Isn't Blast the correct translation for "Взрыв"?

Similar spell:

86. Огненный взрыв => Fireblast?
#Круг 2.
Школа: Магия Хаоса.
Наносит 7 единиц магического урона всем воинам в радиусе 2 тайлов. Поджигает юниты, причиняя 1 единицу урона в течение трёх ходов.
Повреждения увеличиваются с ростом силы мага.

- Душу бы продал за такое заклинание! О... нет-нет, это не предложение! - Рилай, архимаг.#

If I understand correctly, Метаморфозы is plural?
metamorphoses is the plural of metamorphosis.
Do you think metamorphosis fits better?

Ok, so, they actually do change the name of the spell for no reason... Sorry, not your fault then, didnt expect it
And yes, Blast is kinda good translation. But to be completely honest, I would rather ignore what they did in russian and leave it as Fireball. It's the ball of fire in the picture god damned...
So, having Fireball and Fireblast seems reasonable for me as it's two different words and spells or you should ask developer to change the icon so it doesnt look like, you know, fireball
Yes, Метаморфозы is plural and Метаморфоз too, it's just how it's change if you add "the school of..." instead of simple word. And that's outside of my competency, I'm not a linguist so I don't know how it sounds better in english)

Tested it with the 100% Russian Eador. Russian version contains the same sentence. Interestingly enough, in the first screenshot, my low level mage had a "Level of summoned creature is 12" message. Second screenshot is from level 10 druid with higher summoning power ... however, spellbook shows "Level of summoned creature is 5", lower than before. Weird. Maybe Jazz can help Smile

Wait, this is actually the correct sentence...

/552
Name: Текущая сила заклинания; => Current spell power

/553
Name: Текущая длительность заклинания; => Current spell duration

/554
Name: Уровень призванного существа; => Level of summoned creature

Russian text you show does display "Текущая сила заклинания".
So it may be something wrong in my formatting... Hmmm

Not sure what is shown in the druid screen capture?

You don't like "Wicked's Bane" ? Smile

Since sometimes the game crash and other time it shows summoned creature lvl instead of spell power it maybe some weird shit with internal logic. And it's clearly different between russian and english versions. In 1st one it's proper spell. In 2nd one it's summoning for some reasons...
Actually, wicked's bane is not that much correct. And bane of wicked is the right one. As I know "'s" means that the word before is the owner of the word after. So wicked's bane means "bane that was caused by wicked one". While correct meaning of the spell is "bane that harm wicked one". And "of" as the construction that create target link instead of owner link is definetely better. To soften the mistake - there is no way you can recognize the difference in russian text without the full sentence so you can take the context into translation because we have exactly the same construction for both "owner" and "target".
Also, if you will put two variants in google translate it will turn bane of wicked into russian text of the spell and it can't even translate normally wicked's bane) Which is of course only helps if you can read russian natively

I would disagree. Bane means "A cause of misery or death; an affliction or curse"
"This artifact is the Wicked's Bane" means "this artifact is a cause of misery for all wicked creatures".
I'll ask on another forum.

P.S. Sorry I forgot to retain a save file for the Astral Thief crashing issue I reported. If it happens again, I'll be sure to do that.

2.60 was based on Russian version 15.1231.f01, while 2.70 is based on Russian version 16.0901.f01

Here are the change logs (in Russian) for 16.0901 and 16.0901.f01

They haven't been translated to English yet, for lack of time.
(The release itself is not quite done yet.)

Regards.
