This is first steps of Russian Localization. So far so good, I can even see changes in the game, but I found problems with fonts - have to think how I can handle this. Found old font in the web, but it look like they are not compatable. Places where I see changes (my marks) are Main Menu Text and Acatana map.

What's in here:

  • Created a folder for localization;
  • Translated few files for test purposes.

As a huge fan of Unreal series and a native speaker I want to help to contribute this project with quality translation (back in the days we only had a pirate translation). As a native speaker and translator I am going make full translation alone, for now. First I am planning to complete text translation, then I will try to fix fonts. If you can help me - that's gonna be great.

P.S. We can add each other in Discord for contact and questions, you can find me as: nightguardianx

Neat! Just saw the work on UT2004-Localization.

Remember to try different encodings (UTF-8, UTF-8-BOM, UTF-16-LE) to see which one allows you to see the characters better. UT2004 original localizations were all encoded on UTF-16-LE, and apparently OldU-UT2004 supports UTF-8 as well.
