poor guy. in what area are you working, descriptions or...?

[Bouchious]

oh yes! poor jerby and the great dutch challenge

[jerby]

beta-tester...
Divinius Arma is my Boss.

since if never looked further in the RTW folder as Export_descr_unit...it's the best i can do.

haven't heard any news if i'm in the team...

[jerby]

oh yes! poor jerby and the great dutch challenge

indeed....it's almost done..but one part is very hard to translate without knowing what i'm talking about..but i don't know were to get that "file" required for testing(you know what i mean.not the béta itself..)

you got to translate something to check if you'd be a good beta tester?
Where's the logic in that?

well. it's more of a favor..
translating somethign about the béta, since the perosn who was supposed to do it "dissapeared" (death squad...)
the logic is very very thin...

actually just waiting for DA's response..then they'll trial me for 2 weeks
tehn some torture, then the spanish inquisition drops by..more torture...

and maybe then.. i get a béta to test..

If you think this is lame, then you will not like being a beta tester.

hmmmm.... open airing of frustration before even joining?

Beta Playtesting can be very dry and tedious labor. It involves checking, rechecking, and triple checking for bugs using multiple saves. Then you need to write accurate and detailed reports on what you find.

The FUN is not the beta testing or playing the current EB build. The FUN is in being a part of the greatest TW conversion of all time. The FUN is in working towards a lasting and endlessly replayable game.

So, your little task should be fun, not lame. I actually had a lot of fun putting that manual together, despite how technical it seems. If you would rather just drop the whole subject and go back to vanilla, just let me know. I need dedicated playtesters who are willing to slave along with me.

[jerby]

well. i cna see the fun tehre is in making a manual.
but the translating it word-by-word i a bit tedious...it's also very hard because you start to "think" in english...when i read it teh first time. i knew "exactly" what you meant, but could hardly phrase it in Dutch....

the testing as you described it sounds like interesting. i just hopes there's enough to test...even after the OB..

so you're writing a dutch manual? that's cool but who'll check it? Or is DA dutch?

[jerby]

DA wants me to translate it.
i just typed over teh titles, and started discussing child-porn..with occasionally dropping a béta-testing-term

nah, juts kidding, i guess the other dutch-guys reading it can understand it, and if not they can read the same bit in english...

the weirdest part is: i should have good english skills to be part of the team...but i'm translating a guide for men that don't//how did they get it?
thinking this is a test..hope 2 days was fast enough

well succes and I'm sure you'll be a fine EB member.

[jerby]

well succes and I'm sure you'll be a fine EB member.

tell that to the team

[Moros]

tell that to the team

if they bring it up, I will
no seriously, I think you would; you're the guy that's always been here, not only drawling on the screens but also the guy who reads the historical info and everything. Discussing history,...
I think these are the guys who don't just want to download the closed beta and take a look in the EBH but actually want to help and be a part of the biggest and most ambitious mod for RTW.

(glad they didn't give me a translation work )

[jerby]

DA's just gonna throw it in teh bin as soon as he gets it
"2 days..little too late...don't need such a lazy man"

DA: DID YOU GET IT, READ PM PLEASE!!!! (getting no response...i feel lonely )

[Divinus Arma]

I was out for breakfast and a walk. I am reviewing it now.

[khelvan]

Jerby, ik hou van jou.

[Bouchious]

First post updated.

[Reenk Roink]

Here are some Carthaginian buildings that I have been researching (I don't know if they have already been included in the mod):

The Tophet:

The Tophet found south of Carthage was a burial ground for children sacrificed to the Carthaginian deities. Wild grass and hundreds of stele, many with the symbol of the goddess Tanit mark this location. Underneath the stele are urns with the ashes of sacrificed animals and small children.
