A trove can already ask for the horn of Geryon. I once went to hell to get it in a three rune game just to enter a treasure trove. IIRC there was a suggestion in another thread to generate treasure troves at the start of each branch that need the rune of this branch to unlock, to motivate the player...

I discovered it some time ago because it uses the libtcod-library...

Maybe I'm just stupid, but I can't upload a translation for unident.txt. :( When downloading the file 'for translation', I get a file containing only the already translated strings. When downloading 'for use', I get the file with some strings already translated. So I translated the remaining strings...

That Kraken opening was an extremely blatant sign of things to come, by the way. Of course, that was part of the point :) A kraken obliterating a group of player monsters is a much better memento mori than a boring old skull, I think. Dude, you rock at level design and you get an A+ in Theory of Cr...

This video has a slightly clearer explanation of how to use Transifex. Pros and Cons: Transifex pros: dedicated translation environment - smooth interface keeps project out of devs' hair until final stages Transifex cons: not immediately clear what the best way to use it is - help docs not great no...

I think you would not be able to upload it to Transifex, hence the different number of lines. A solution would be to get rid of the many line breaks in this file, e.g. The Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup team (Peter Berger, Adam Borowski, Samuel Bronson, Jude Brown, Robert Burnham, Chris Campbell, Matthew ...

you cann access the git repo via http/https: http://gitorious.org/crawl

Maybe it is because Transifex did not pull the file directly after you changed the url. Is there a way to force Transifex to pull the file from git? This morning I downloaded the credits.txt with no problems, uploaded my translation, and some minutes later I wondered why my translation was lost. I n...

You can download it here: http://gitorious.org/crawl/crawl/blobs/ ... REDITS.txt

But before uploading, we have to wait 'till this issue is fixed.

I opened the current file that is on Transifex on Notepad++ and it contains html code instead of just text. So I'm kinda clueless on what to translate and what to not translate of it. Any advice would be appreciated. :) It seems to be a problem with the url of the file. Transifex seems to check out...

That's master. For 0.10, you want http://gitorious.org/crawl/crawl/blobs/stone_soup-0.10/crawl-ref/CREDITS.txt I think for Transifex we have to use http://gitorious.org/crawl/crawl/blobs/raw/stone_soup-0.10/crawl-ref/CREDITS.txt instead of http://gitorious.org/crawl/crawl/blobs/stone_soup-0.10/craw...

OK, it seems the Changelog.txt-file changed. Now there's a html-page from gitorious instead of the actual text-file and my translations is lost...

German version of the credits added! Yeah!

OK, took only some minutes...

FYI: If working with plaintext files, the translated file has to have the same number of lines as the original. That sucks :-)

Steak, of course!

I've set up a Transifex page for us here https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/dcss/ Interested translators please sign up and take a look. Let's evaluate it and decide whether it's what we need. I'm not 100% sure how the workflow is/should be with Transifex, but would you mind invite me to the proj...

Take Naga Gladiator with a trident. Disable all skills but Polearms until you have some piety with Chei (time to start training invocation). Press 'o' and TAB rapidly until you are in Lair. Works most of the time :-) Just joking. After getting my first win with an SpVM i never thought i would be abl...

Anyway, what's the input/output format? Don't we need to format our strings in a csv or something?

Have a look here here.

Btw, how is the text going to be translated? Do you plan to use something like gettext?

I think transifex is free for open source projects, IIRC (the hosting service they offer).
But maybe someone could setup a transifex-server just for crawl? It's open source by itself (it's a djange website).

Sounds like you could have fun reading Stanislaw Lem.

Yeah, it's totally epic.

I've only played the board game so far...

I would always go for NaGl instead of NaMo, since the trident helps alot in the early game. Later you will propably use a demon trident, which is also very strong. Don't worry about the Monks piety boost, since with a Naga you aquire piety very fast while worshipping Chei.

First time Kobold, first time Assassin. Worked quite well. Until the Dungeon became too easy and I didn't notice the Lich behind the yaktaur captain. Yet another possible easy win wasted...

Note that Nagas got nerfed in 0.11 (trunk). Constriction is avaiable not until reaching XL:13, so the early game is a lot harder for them than in 0.10.

Ich spreche Deutsch und würde mich freuen, ein paar Texte zu übersetzen.

I'm speaking german, so I would like to help :-)

Yes, they are AFAIK.

Fedhas as a starting god with some piety is totally overpowered. I know, because I already created a druid background with fedhas as starting god some weeks ago which started with some fruits and piety**. I'm sorry that I don't have the code anymore, but this background just didn't work...

I don't see Tornado in your spelllist...

Seems like a situation were you want to cast tornado.

You're crossing into no-brainer territory as well. All berserkers are melee characters. Not all melee characters are berserkers.

Stepping on a tile to know which items are there on that tile instead of just hitting CTRL+x.

Found out that I installed DC:SS on my computer at work (long long ago), Version 0.7.1 or something like that. Started it and there was a savegame: A XL:14 DDNe of Makhleb.

How about a whole branch containing creatures once thought extinct? Terror Skinks, Coelacanths,... what else?

Dodos, of course!

the +10,+11 halberd "Monuyl" (weapon) {slay drac, Str-4 Stlth++}

Probably not the best weapon of all times, but for a light armour polearm naga gladiator quite good, especially in Vaults/Zot with all that dragons around.

So, this is just my second win, and the first one with a melee build (the other win was a SpVM). An early Book of the Warp gave me Phase Shift (which is quite awesome), and Controlled Blink (you probably know that one). On Lair:7 I acquired a weapon, and got this awesome +10,+11 halberd "Monuyl...
