Re: Drakan Community Patch
Actually i need more context for this one to get a coherent translation. ;) This text appears when the installer is performing a full search on each disk drive in turn (from C to Z). It's directly followed by the drive letter, such as: Currently searching drive: C:\ (a progress bar appears undernea...

Re: Drakan Community Patch
Thanks; now the Community Patch both supports patching the German Drakan, as well as has German as a language option for the installer :D I did miss one text string though, since it had been hardcoded into the search progress bar handler, buried amongst hundreds of other lines of code. english.CurrS...

Re: Modified Ruined Village level file, with controllable Arokh
Ok, I've replaced the level files in the OP - since I've gone back to this in the meantime, and made a much better version; this time with (mostly correct) layer visibility

Re: Drakan Community Patch
I can have a look at those strings and translate them. Sure, feel free :) (BTW: the %n is a newline escape character, copied verbatim from the installer text strings - I left the %n's in because the forum's (Code) tag handling is kinda broken, and lumps everything together into one line anyway). Pl...

Re: Drakan Community Patch
Thanks! Works great (except Violence is greyed out - but its set to excessive). Ok, I've done some proper testing with the German version of Drakan you provided. The correct way to handle it (and this is how it will be integrated into the next release of Community Patch) is to install German Drakan...

Improved and/or rebalanced MP maps
Since there are still many promising MP maps that could use some significant improvements (both in terms of balance and/or overall quality), I figured I might as well get started on tweaking those. ------------------------------------- Here's the first one: Amen v2 . Last time we played the original...

Re: Main site content which needs updating
Here's some more stuff I stumbled upon by chance, while looking through the SP levels for candidates for conversion to MP maps. On Singleplayer levels download page: <about Doomsday> Released work done on a 12 level series which adds RPG elements and other features from Drakan2. Cancelled due to lim...

Re: Widescreen hack and some other fixes aka AiO Patch
This is most aggravating. So it turns out that it's not actually related to CPU type at all. The first sign of trouble was when on my new AMD server (with cable Ethernet connection, no wireless), Auropolis worked for me - but not for everyone else :!: The next step was to take the old Intel Atom ser...

Real world places associated with dragon legends?
A couple weeks ago, when playing multiplayer (or rather, fooling around in multiplayer) with HeNniFerBoB, the conversation eventually led me to bring up the subject of Janosik , who was a legendary folk hero - robbing the rich and giving to the poor. Obviously, Janosik is not connected to any dragon...

Re: New Drakan dedicated server hardware (Mini-ITX size PC build)
Yeah, it's great for video reencoding actually :D I need to convert all my variable-framerate recorded gameplay videos to fixed framerate before any video editing software can handle them without desyncing the audio - but HandBrake crashes instantly on my main PC for some bizarre, undetermined reaso...

Re: Drakan: Order of the Flame permanent multiplayer server
All right, my Drakan server is now running on new hardware :D The most significant change is that it's on a cable connection now, as opposed to wireless - which seems to have totally eliminated the random lag spikes; previously when it was on wireless, I was having intermittent high ping/lag issues ...

New Drakan dedicated server hardware (Mini-ITX size PC build)
I've been previously running my Drakan server on an old Intel Atom netbook with Win XP. Although its tiny power consumption (around 12-15W) was quite advantageous, the hardware was otherwise rather ancient; barely keeping up with the demand of running the server together with the antivirus+firewall....

Re: Drakan Community Patch
Huh. On my machine, swapping out just Dragon.rrc (on a fresh install) resulted in a blank keybindings list, as it was suddenly looking for German command names in Drakan.cfg - and obviously, there were none. In your case, I guess it's because you already had the German version running before, so the...

Re: Drakan Community Patch
Interesting, thanks. It'll take some excavating to get to the root of the issue, though. I'll be releasing a new build of the Community Patch by this weekend, so there won't be enough time to integrate proper German language support in this release. For a quick hacky fix, overwrite your Dragon.rrc a...
