Typo and Message

Erdrick · Post by **Erdrick** » Fri Sep 28, 2001 1:00 pm

1 There are a few typos in the game, like 2 periods after a sentence
and some misspellings, these should be fixed I think because
it looks quite unprofessional if you mess up.
2 Sometimes when we are far enough away to hear the poeple's sentences
except it doesnt label them it does a #s before the normal sentence.
I constantly hear "#s Forms silent words with the lips.."
or "#me forms silent words with the lips.."
See the 2 periods?

Just some little errors that need fixing.

The second bug would need a new client to fix, but I can fix the typos within seconds if I knew where they are. I would appreciate if you take the work and give me a list (after all I am no native english speaker).

i agree with bror , after all , only a small group of us speaks english in "native".
this is german game , so its understandable (uhhm.. is that a word?).
i also misspell words sometimes (especially when ill have to write very fast).

Ok here is small list of things i found but i'm not sure if they are typos or if some of them was done on purpose?

1. When a female characters plays an instrument, it uses the word "his" instead of "her"
eg: Clara plays some timid tunes on his harp

2. When you play a lute, it says "Dyluck plays some happy tunes on his 'guitar' " If the item is called a lute maybe its better to stick with that?

3. The book for orl says "Orl is the ancient rune for calling 'materia' " I think maybe you mean "materials" ?

Thanks, everything mentioned is fixed.

materia is not the same as materials
materia is the same as mass or volume...

ok,there is something!If you bake cake,this message appears:
You toss away a big peace of coal!
Its supposed to be piece!
Just that you know

Dy, I believe they mean the same thing but I could be wrong.
And Bror, is it possible to change that "shouting-talking distance" bug by next version?
And whoever says something about coal: I never heard of that before.
