It's here:

http://lang.chasmonline.com/ -> Chasm Launcher Url!

By now it's best feature is the auto language download and installation feature:

It's getting all the language files from http://lang.chasmonline.com.

Need some testers, this tool is pretty much a product of fast development. If errors occur, tell me :)

I guess if this is made "official" users who can't speak english (or not well enough or don't enjoy english games) will check out Chasm anyway, because their language might be available :)

@Discord: If you want to see the sources or compile this stuff yourself etc. to offer this more officially, let me know!!! It's not a big deal with the launcher atm haha.

@All: Check it out :D

Any plans to allow it to edit the settings of the ini like fullscreen, debug room, boss enable, etc?

Hi TobiasAmaranth,

yes it's the next step.

I once built an editor for Dark Souls DS Fix by pertert.

My tool offered context sensitive values (e.g. Checkbox, dropdown list etc. for each setting). This is what I plan next. Discord Games just would have to use some "Meta Comments to offer specific values":
E.G.:

Code: Select all

#Will show the FPS if set to true|Checkbox:0;1
ShowFPS=0

#Dropdown:"Enter";"Space";"Tab";"Escape";"LeftShift"
Mapping_MoveLeft=Left
This will be parsed and will offer the user checkboxes and dropdown lists + description etc... :)
Easy to manage by Discord Games and effective for the end user (if Discord doesn't want to add MEta Data, the tool will still offer Textboxes to enter the values).

Updated my translation on your site. But I didn't really know how you handled the "multiple translations of same game version by same person" so I deleted the 1.0 and replaced it with 1.1.
Would it be possible to show the translation version ? So you can have a sort of repository (If I ever loose my files you still have them on your site and I can start from earlier version as well as newest).

Hehe thanks :oops:

@eleriaqueen:
I could add another textbox where you can put your personal file version. So you would have this:

Code: Select all

1.05 by eleriaqueen (1.2)
1.05 by eleriaqueen (1.1)
1.05 by eleriaqueen (1.0)
and so on. I just wonder if the the multiple version information could confuse the users.
