Greetings from Germany,
as you probably know, the German fans still have to wait until Nov 16 for the release over here, and then the game will only be sold in English (game/manual) language, the "real" German versions will not be out before 3/2002).
But we already formed a fan based translation team here to translate Civ3 into German language (yes, a huge project, from the experience with SMAC we calculate with about 150 working hours).
Currently we are longing for the Civ3-TXT-files to begin with the translation as soon as possible. We asked Firaxis and Infogrames officially for help, but they refused to help us (Firaxis) or didn't answer at all yet (Infogrames).
So please, you lucky US owners: even though it is not perfectly legal (I know) we ask any helpful soul out there to send us the English TXT-files (*.txt) that probably are installed in the game directory, so that we can go to translation work ASAP.
Only the TXT-Files are needed (no exe, no pcs etc.). We disapprove piracy and of course we will buy our own copy here as soon as it is available - we are true Sid worshippers/followers/addicts (even though we are a bit dissapointed from the lack of official support).
Update: a nice US guy is going to help us with the files, so hopefully we can goto work now
Thank you
