It sounds like a good idea. What are the codes for those languages? (en=english, fr=french, de=german, etc.)

Russian is "ru", isn't it?

Does the game even support additional languages? I'm guessing it would, but has it been tested?

It does. I tried putting in some strings in Latin (code "la") which I'm sure wasn't coded in, and setting language to "la" showed them. You can also set language to "profanity" to activate the one remnant of the Profanity Pack.

The translation wiki holds the user translations:

Maks wrote a script to automatically turn wiki pages into game strings:

Since they're now stable and haven't been updated for a long time, it would be fine for someone to package up all the completed languages into a goomod for easy installation (obviously compiled xml, rather than binary).

Using the script, you can see the status of the translations. Only 4 are completely finished. The rest are missing 4-20 strings each.

Also we need the graphic for the text (That one are stored in /res/fonts)

If anyone could make them that would be great!

ru=Russian
ro=Romanian
ukr=Ucranian

GooTool has the ability to create these images automatically given a rules file. See http://goofans.com/developers/image-localisation.

The fonts and source images are here: http://2dboy.com/MATERIALS/localisation/

I can upload graphical letters. If someone can convert them for GooTool it would be great because I don't understand a word from XML

How do you mean graphical letters? If you mean letter with little tildes and whatnot above and below, then I'm pretty sure that most fonts in WoG already have them.

I mean the letters of Russian language that aren't included in WoG

Use GooTools' Localization Tool.

I don't understand anything in GooTool' Image Localization. I tried to use it and I read the http://goofans.com/developers/image-localisation but I don't understand it. If I'll upload the graphical letters in .png someone can use them to create in GooTool all this stuff???

Yes. The Image Localization I think is to make translated images like those in the Island levels: saying "The Goo Filled Hills", etc. (Those are actually images)

It's pretty easy. Name them something like title.ru.png and put it in goomod/override/res/levels/island1 or whatever. Then goomod it.

Yes, you're quite welcome to create images by hand (and maybe for non-Latin languages that would be better anyway). The point of the GooTool l18n tool was to automate all that hard work.

I think we can make a goomod for this "Language pack". I'll try to create it.
What do you think about using FontBuilder.exe

What's that?

Read this and you'll get it.

Oh, the PopCap tool. I thought you meant a TTF generator. My bad.
