localization

bigdan · 02-22-2002, 11:41 AM

Hi Jim (and all others) !

I've just discovered Aquarium today and it seems to work fine on my win98 / Athlon600 at work...

What's about MacOSX/Linux future versions (in OpenGL i presume ;-) ?

Could i help you for french (and german, italian ...) localization (you guess have too an Amiga4000 at work... and an A1200 + 2 x CD32 + A500+) of Aquarium ?

Mail me if you need help (on french localization or for french/european distribution for example).

AMIGAlly,

Hi, bigdan -

Prolific is working on language translations (there's already a Japanese version).

No Linux version is planned. While it's a great OS, Linux users don't pay for software.

Mac users have exactly the opposite philosophy, and will shell out money to support companies they like. A Mac version will be started shortly.

Hey Jim,

I'm living in Korea and my wife's Korean. We love this screensaver so much, I could have her do the Korean translation for you no problem. It wouldn't take too long and we'll do it for free. Anything to help. I'll e-mail it to you when we're done, probably next week sometime, and you can use it if you like or toss it if you're worried about copywrite issues or something. What do you think?

Oh, by the way, every store I go in over here that sells computers, has your screensaver running on most or all of the floor models. Most likely, pirated older versions. Have you sold many copies to companies in S. Korea? Probably not. If I see any lionfish, I'll report to you.
