[Discussion]Full english translation of KSD II
 

Hello I am fully translating KSD II with Wolfpack(Campaign) mod to English language. I have already translated menu, equipment, radio messages, patrol orders, ship names. I wonder if anyone is interested in this. I want to know if its worth it to upload here. Because original authors of this amazing modpack are https://brat01.mybb.by/ forum. And it could be hard to upload it to Subsim, time will tell Would be great if interested people would leave a small comment to let me know :Kaleun_Wink:

attention the vickers mod only translates KsD II opponent ...
if I understood correctly you would have translated the wolpack because I had to start doing it but in front of this impressive number of lines I do not have time for that I am not in retirement !!! .. if Wolpack is translated I am interested in seeing your work..please let me know ..:Kaleun_Salute:

yes, correct. Niume can use my work as a base if it helps:salute:

Thank you.

Translate
 

Thank you for this excellent news .. a colossal work awaits you but in my opinion this mod is one of the best of all that I have tried ... because I have not less .. than 4 sh3 mods (Onealex; GwR21; Ccom12; Lsh2020) thus install 4 sh4 mods (KsD-IIWolfpack; KsD-IIAdversaire; Tmo2.5; FoRtRs1.46) is a WoS sh5 permanently installed to test different composition
besides I had RfB 2.0 which I find great .. also .. but I encountered various problems .. it would be fantastic to bring it up to date because I really like these mods without them the games are nothing. .thank you to all those people who made this possible ...:Kaleun_Cheers::Kaleun_Salute:

Status update
 

I am very happy that there is interest in this modpack. In my opinion this is as good or maybe better than Operation Munsoon. And I believe that this Russian wonder modpack should be translated to English so that more people could enjoy it. After all the more variety the better.



So far progress is good.


Career start window translated


Fully and more accurately translated radio messages with help of DeepL translator (testing will be needed to correct some mistakes)


Finished translating orders which appear after reporting a task force/convoy


Patrol orders translated.



Torpedo/upgrades descriptions translated.


Submarine compartment names translated.

Looking good, Niume! :salute:

Re Assist in translation...
 

To assist you in translations with regards to patrol orders, radio reports & messages back in response to those radio reports (responses back like say, reporting a convoy, task force, etc. etc. ... I took a bit of time & translated the months from english to russian to get the info for them & am presenting that work to help out...

I finnaly located the month text location If I am not mistaken it was in UPClocalization but in US campaign directory.:k_confused:
]

Ok, so did the translation work I put together, help out... :hmmm:

I hope it did. :shucks: :yep:

I have already translated the months I just couldn't find where the text is located.

Encountered a small problem. For some reason when using wolfpack mod with the interface mod it messes up the UZO sight for some reason. I tried different mod order but to no avail. Tried contacting author no response. Maybe someone has a solution?
Also TYPE IXA does not have deck watch nor periscope for some reason.

Does anyone know how to edit spawn locations of submarines when spawning in port? I know how to do it in SH3 but no idea how in SH4 Because currently if you spawn in base at training flottila you are stuck in a harbor piece.

In the Flotillas.upc file in Data / UPCDataGE / UPCCampaignData folder, where you the Base info. Using Stock as the example:

[Flotilla 1.Base 1]
ID= F1Penang
NameDisplayable= Penang-Base-Name
Info= Penang-Base-Info
ExternalBaseName= Penang
AvailabilityInterval= 1942-02-29, NULL
DepartureDescription1= 12044763.000000, 646206.000000, 270.000000
DepartureDescriptionOut1= 12029563.000000, 621806.000000, 269.992310

Those last two lines are the Longitude and Latitude, as seen at the bottom of the Mission Editor window. I do not know as there is a limit as to how many locations you can have, but I'm sure there is... The line with "...Out..." is the Outside the Harbor location. The "easy" way to find a given location is to use Mission Editor, and open the Campaign_LOC file which is in the Data / Campaigns / Campaign folder, used for both sides... Size the window so that you can see the status gutter at the bottom, and where ever you hover the mouse pointer, you'll see the location in that bottom status gutter. Find the harbor you are after, and zoom all of the way in, checking where your mouse pointer is as you zoom in...

thank you :Kaleun_Salute:

Does anyone know how can we fix missing convoy reports? I am having trouble finding the problem.

If you are referring to the little text messages you get, and the little icon on the NavMap, that is controlled by (as an example):

[RndGroup 40]
GroupName=42a_Jap_Convoys_140
Category=0
CommandEntry=0
Long=15574430.000000
Lat=3929400.000000
Height=0.000000
DelayMin=8
DelayMinInterv=6060
SpawnProbability=34
RandStartRadius=0.000000
ReportPosMin=1980
ReportPosProbability=25
Heading=286.559998
Speed=9.000000

The ReportPosMin is the number of minutes between reports, while the ReportPosProbability is the percentage of chance that it does the reporting. So this is every 4th time through every 33 hours... any negative number for ReportPosMin would mean a "No report"...

Radio contact report happen but the problem is that they do not show up on the map. (No Squares)
