Unofficial Russian Translation - 100% Complete - Sinners (and Testers) Are Welcome
Premise
This is an unofficial Russian translation of Saints Row (2006). All subtitles, interface text, in-game manual, etc. have been translated with the style and tone of the game kept in mind.The mod utilizes modified font files (.vf3_xbox2 + .peg_xbox2 combo) to replace (mostly) unused Latin-1 Supplementary symbols with Cyrillic letters. It also uses modified US_Strings.txt with cp1251 strings encoded as cp1252 (in order to remap the text onto Latin-1 replacements). Also similar changes were made to Hitman .xtbl files to translate target names.
The mod affects packages misc2 and pegfiles, so while it is compatible with .xtbl/.xex mods like Stilwater+, it may conflict with some mods that affect those packages as well.
The translation is 100% complete but there might be few typos in some places. Any help with finding them would be appreciated.
Features
- All subtitles, interface text, in-game manual translated (except for color names at Rim Jobs);
- Thin and giant fonts (+ outlines) and digital font have been modified to support Cyrillic symbols;
- The gang names shown in titlecards have been edited as well to match the style;
- Tested on Xenia Canary v2023.02.20;
