Thanx for answers!
One more question. What about the built-in fonts with Cyrillic support? 
The big Localization/Translation Thread
There’s cyrillic support for everything but the cutscene text right now. I will work on improving that shortly.
larsiusprime, its you? lars.doucet your nick too?
So, there is problem with font:
[spoiler][/spoiler]Its only after battle, only here.
And one more thing. When I have apply Russian language in the game, I receive a window that lists the strings missing in the English text. This is because the translation was made for the version of 1.1.00, and now I have version 1.1.32, which was added a few new lines. I found these new strings and added in translation, but there are three lines in data_enemy, which is not in the original text:
[spoiler][/spoiler]What’s wrong with that?
@2nd-Bug What? That line exists since long ago, and there is a space whereas localization lines do not have one. Weird?
MenDude, show me these strings, please! Just copy here.
Hey there! Yes I am Lars Doucet 
So, right now I don’t have cyrillic font support for bitmap fonts. I can put that in the next patch. Can you point me towards a complete listing of all the letters in the cyrillic alphabet? (I’m going to turn off the ban on cyrillic characters in this forum now that we have so many russian users by the way… hope that doesn’t result in more spam…)
From now on you can post russian characters as long as > 75% of the text is non-russian. If we need to adjust this later, I will.

It is not nesessary, at least for me =)
So, what about three string what I wrote above?
Now problems. Here some screens with tech problems.
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/10b94eaa4ffe/BugsPlease ask if something is not clear.
On Steam forum you wrote about permissions participants of the translation. In what form would you like to get them?
The easiest, pain-free way is for all translators to go here:
http://www.defendersquest.com/1/index.p ... =fanlationClick “I agree”, then enter their email address on the next page.
Missing strings:
It looks like the problem is caused because there is a space after the final comma on the previous line. This make the game parse the whole thing as one line, in effect skipping the “psi sheep” entry. Remove the space so that the line ends with a comma and it should be okay.
Almost finished with bitmap font issues. Should be in the next patch.

Nice!
Here member list:
http://notabenoid.com/book/40214/membersI think there is no need in the confirmation of participants with less than 100 lines
Does that site itself have some sort of “if you post here you give us permission to use your contributions for whatever reason” clause? If so we might be covered already.
The line you’re looking for is in data_enemy.csv
“$EN_SHEEP” <— this line has an extra space right at the end after the comma, before the endline
“$EN_PSI SHEEP” <— this line is correct, but the mistake above causes it to be ignored.
I’m pushing an updated engine build to test_public on steam. Should be available in about ~15 minutes. This has added cyrillic support in all the game’s bitmap font fields.

Not really sure. I sent requests to all participants, and then post here the answers. Try that for a start.

Where I can take it to try? Is there some new strings?
On Steam forum you are again asking send screenshots of any visual issues to you. But previously I already gave you the link. Here is it:
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/10b94eaa4ffe/BugsHave you looked? There are about 90% of all issues. If you can fix it, would be enough.
Here you can take last version of russian localization:
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/ed1753d1d93f/localizationNo missed strings!
Last compilation from 05.02.14 24:00.
Thanks!
Playtesting it now. A couple other questions, could you please translate this data from index.xml, too?
(I just need equivalent lines in Russian)
Also, my lawyer says it would probably be smart to translate the EULA file as well:
http://www.defendersquest.com/files/data_eula.xmlYou can just download that XML file and create a data_eula_ru-RU.xml file with the english text replaced.
Will that be okay?
Okay, playtesting looks pretty good. I have no idea what anything says, but there’s only a few over-runs here and there, nothing I haven’t adjusted in German and Czech before. I got about 50% of it today, will fix the rest tomorrow and send you a list of the necessary adjustments in the translation files (this is what those “_NUMS” entries are for. Hackity hack!)
I’ll also update the engine on Steam so you can see for yourself. What’s your feel for the quality of the translation, if I may ask?
I prepared fully ready and tested index.xml on cloud:
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/ed1753d1d93f/localizationHere are just a VOLUNTEER translation is an early version of our translation, that is, in fact, the same (but with a smaller number of translated strings). So I think that it should not be added in the game at all.

Absolutely perfect! 
But seriously, I checked each row in the game and I can say translation is really very good. Of course there were a couple of phrases, which are hard to understand, but the collective mind helps in such situations. =)
And Yes, this is not the first game that I translate
I’ve added a new screenshots, №13-20. Also from Hy60koshk.
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/10b94eaa4ffe/BugsIt’s in v.1.1.38!
Also renew list of bugs given v.1.1.38. Revised deleted. Some screenshot updated.
We are trying to eliminate the problem by replacing the words and phrases by shorter ones.
Russian tranlation finished! Now start betatest.
EULA not ready yet.
