Welcome to the nexusforums, doyl.

If you've got firefox you can download dictionaries, they're quite useful even for native English.
There it's as simple as right-clicking in a reponse-box->Languages->Add dictionairies. Or the same in whatever language. You could always use a translator on the web as long as you say you've used it as other people might not know what you mean.

I don't know how you did it this time, but it doesn't look that bad at all and its quite understandable.

This forum will probably stay english as adding more languages poses problems for moderators as they might not understand them with all consequences attached... Next to that, less people could help those people as they don't know the language people are explaining there problems in.

Just as Pronam has suggest, I also use Firefox with an English dictionary which helps make sure I spell words correctly. It highlights unknown words in a Red underline and right-clicking on it shows a list of possible matches for the correct spelling. This is a VERY helpful tool. Thanks Mozilla!

Well...Google translation is really not helpful!!!

Can be useful for single words.

What exactly are you wanting translated? News? Articles? The entire mod database or the entire forums?

I think it could be possible to have news and articles in various languages if there are enough volunteers willing to provide translations but I don't think there is a possibility for all the mods and forum posts to be translated by humans.

Hi everyone,
I have another language-question, perhaps a silly one for you: May I use any English mod in German gameplay? Mods that take effect to values shown in message-boxes might mix up different languages. Do they? Is it possible, that a foreign mod kills the game or brings up some undesired effects? I have not installed any mods up to now and want to ask you before I do so. When it is recommended, I will also start a new game.
:thanks: for answering
