Bug Report - BG:EE - Spanish Traduction

[Aleksei]

Hi,

 

Im installing this mod but the last part, dialogs initiated by the player, was wrong and dont get installed.

 

I cant attach the file, where I can mail it or how I can get permitted to upload it?

 

I put instead as pastebin links:

Looks like there is a character in the spanish translation of x#pcinit_tmp.tra that iconv cannot convert to UTF8. Currently, it stops when it hits an error, but WeiDU doesn't know it. I can set iconv to silently drop bad characters. A word might end up missing a letter, but it will still install.

 

Uninstall the mod, replace the conv_tra.bat file in your bg1npc directory with this file:

 

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/80058200/conv_tra.bat

 

Then, reinstall the mod.

Thanks a lot!

 

Now it's work

AstroBryGuy: Not sure what "drop" means in this content. Make sure the UTF-8 version doesn't include any symbol or non-latin letter, or the game will crash on it (I guess you know this, just want to make sure.)

Jastey - sorry if that wasn't clear what I meant by "drop".

 

I added the "-c" option to the iconv commands which convert the strings to UTF-8. That option does the following (from the iconv man page at GNU.org):

 

−c When this option is given, characters that cannot be converted are silently discarded, instead of leading to a conversion error.

So, when iconv hits an unconvertible character, it will skip that character and move on, rather than stopping with a conversion error (which leads to an incomplete converted .tra file).

Great! Thank you for clearifying.
