I'm not sure where I should post this, so I went for "game talk".
Lots of friends have shown great interest in the game when I ran a quick "demo" in front of them but they told me they wouldn't play it as they're not fluent enough in English.
As I'm not aware of any "official translation" (maybe one is available now? There wasn't any when I bought the game two months ago), I decided to create my own French translation for GalCiv2.
It is almost complete (an, IMHO, rathen good) and although I think I will have to fix a few things when 1.2 comes out, I would like to know if people would be interested in downloading it.
I'm also wondering if an "official" translation is going to be released someday. Not only this would mean I spent hours working on something other guys were already doing, but I'm afraid I would be violating copyright/commercial agreements with the game's distributor (I think Paradox Interactive distributes it in France) – maybe they don't want any "unofficial" translation.
Anyway, here's an e-mail to contact me if you're interested : a.garel(AT)ifrance.com
