[These pages concern interesting correspondence between our translators and project managers at KENAX, mostly concerning the famous Jade Dynasty translation project.]
Here is a link to the most recent French instructions: http://001yourtranslationservice.com/translations/projects/2010/10001/video-game_French-localization-guidelines.html Please read them. There had been an issue with capitalization – please capitalize only Proper names. If some terms from the glossary are not proper names, but capitalized – please edit them. To your questions – I am not sure what you mean speaking […]
I understood from your and other translators’ feedback to the proofreader’s comments that the capitalization issue requires more clarification and examples. I am going to request that from the Lead Translator today. I will let you know when guidelines will be updated. ” thanks! ” Let me try access your questions one by one. 1. […]
“- what are tags and how should you deal with them?” Tags are part of the game software. In Transit they appear as “<>” (though I can choose to display their content). They are not to be modified but still, I may have to move them in the sentence for translation’s sake. “- what to […]

Unfortunately I cannot see the path: as I was telling you, there is something wrong with this, but it’s how it is on my PC and there were lots of problems when we first installed Transit. I have Vista. To find “Projects” folder go to My Computer->Program files->Transit XV->Projects->[the right project.]: the project folder only […]
In cases like verb-noun, use your common sense and experience. Of course, if there is translation for verb, use the verb. With “you” issue, I think leave as it is right now in German. But no one complained to me yet about “you” issues. Go to CS site, there are very short and clear Guidelines […]
Actually I would like to send the first translation again. Some amendments had to be made. Sorry about the confusion. ———————- Few URGENT issues: 1. You MUST ALWAYS use the terms form the GLOSSARY.
