Of course, you'll need also briefings.str and objectives.str translated. And one thing: never use just to joined quotation marks like "" as translation. Else you'll get a JA crash with error "stringsize must not be smaller than 0"...  [Read More]

"This sounds interesting, except those sounds i've noticed." The commandos are indeed used in Secbase already. But now you're saying that the Kyle model is not working properly? *arrgh* Guess what, it's a JO model! Because Hap/ has no JA a...  [Read More]
