Bebbit Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Will Oxygen Not Included have mod support of any kind? I think it's the kind of game that would work well with such a feature. I would love to make a mod that turns everyone into Nome. Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/68211-o2-mod-support/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer ImDaMisterL Posted June 15, 2016 Developer Share Posted June 15, 2016 I also hope that it has mod support. And a strings.pot file. I want to start translating this game as soon as it comes out!

Arlesienne Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 If the devs wanted, we could definitely translate into unsupported languages. DST has a big Polish base. I happen to know the language and translate into and from it. I usually translate literary texts... or localise games. So if the devs are alright and would like a project like this, count me in.

One of the tricky parts in making a translation part would be making the new fonts, though, and it'd be really awesome if Klei could help with that and already add at least some different letters and graphical accents from different languages Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/68211-o2-mod-support/#findComment-784424 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have graphics artists taking care of additional letters. I suppose for languages using the Latin alphabet, it is just the matter of accent marks. Okay, and ł, ą and ę. But things like ó, ñ, umlauts, now more work would be necessary. On the other hand, Wigfrid DOES have umlauts. I bet it wouldn't be too much of trouble for the right person to do the same in ONI.

Yeap, she's got a new font just for her that only changes the normal "O" letter to one with umlauts Now, imagine translating the game to Japanese/Chinese... all the trouble that the kanji and the kana would give @-@ Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/68211-o2-mod-support/#findComment-784428 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno how it works, though POedit IS popular, but there are a few hiccups. 1. It is aimed at Linux. Not everybody uses this operating system. 2. I find it TOO automatic. Call me old-fashioned, but a corpus is much more efficient. Yes, POedit and its ilk can be helpful for speedy translations, especially when your commissioner does not care for subtlety, but it works much worse for languages with elaborate inflection rules, like most Slavic languages, because the software will never beat the human. It simply requires a lot of care, something many teams find less effective than doing the very same between two colleagues without the need to have a good command of the software. 3. It has to be treated as an additional helper rather than your go-to solution. I sadly realise many get excited over the possibilities and forget about it. 5 hours ago, Michi01 said: If this was an EA game: Buy the oxygen DLC now for just 15$! Still a bargain!

Handsome Matt Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I will be making mod tools for this game (some of you might remember my Don't Starve Mod Tools), it looks like great fun to play and even more fun to mod. Edit: Seems like the game is running Unity I was expecting the same engine and file formats as Don't Starve.
