Depends on where you got the file from.



Can I get mir3res.dat from mud3 and use it directly in system.db?

Or is there an easy tool to modify the contents of system.db?



and
Is it possible to convert system.db into an xml file?
Is there any way to use mir3res as is on Zircon?
It would be really nice if there was such a server file or plugin

thank you for your reply

It's hard to translate them all and it's a hassle. Probably because they're all connected to each other.
I wish there was a simple and easy way to translate them into other languages.
I think it would be good if there were additional server-specific features or a dedicated tool.
I think that feature is really necessary for users in other countries.

Maybe it would be simpler to offer basic gaming English guide to your prospective players? :cool:

Something like in that proverb about the mountain and mohamed, not sure how it goes.

There is no problem with game progression, but it is difficult to quickly identify the names of items on the floor.
Data translation is essential for people from countries other than English-speaking countries.

You probably have Chinese language in mind (or similar languages that don't use English alphabet) and there I agree.

Gamers in non-English countries that use western alphabet mostly know enough 'gaming English' to play games just fine but it is quite a different thing for Asian languages, like Koreans, Chinese.
Still, it is actually way more likely that a Chinese will know English than that someone from West out here will know any Chinese. I worked on translating mir3d Conquera game and I could probably still read names of colors and numbers in Chinese but that's about as far as it goes. :D
