I have been playing 1.1 a little and have noticed that the quotes on the loading screens seem to have gone back to vanilla, or at least are all in English again. I don't want this to get hijacked into a Cycle of Telam thing, just want to ask the devs if this is the case or did I do something wrong in installation. I did a forum search but didn't see a previous thread- if there was one my bad. Thanks for the loverly game.

Far as I know the Telam etc. ones were removed on account of the forum discussions (wether these quotes are actually true or not; the fact is the fuss they cause is not worth it -- unless we have a definite answer 'yes they are in x and y'); but perhaps some of the other quotes were converted to full English ones? (Some of them had/have a tendency to be easily corrupted by encoding settings as well as obscure the loading screens...)

I dunno; what I did see however were a couple of Latin phrases, and the Echzechiel (sp? I am terrible with my knowledge of the Bible) one...

You should at least have a "quote" reminding you to start the EB script, so if you've ever seen that one you're all good. You can always run a validation to see that your installation is up to snuff though.

Ah shite, you let the forum whiners get their way.

Well at least I can be happy it won't happen with Gaestae or LS

Actually, I'm pretty sure they didn't.
