What questions can I ask here?

Hello all.

I am translating an old Russian adventure for ZX Spectrum (Pentagon), which is called «Star Heritage». You might have heard of the new remake of this game (for PC).

If I post here the whole translation, will you help me debug it?

If not, I'll have to ask a lot of small questions about various problems I encounter...

Of course, this is a non-commerical amateur project.

The english version of the game comes as a bonus Emotion: smile

P.S.: The draft translation is not to be finished soon: now I have a hard time at the university: summer examinations and stuff...

Thank you very much. I'll keep it in mind.

I am not creating a game, I am just translating it. How dare I change the original character names?

Even if I had been wriring my own adventure, I would in no way use the re

Hi,

Don't worry about it, it was just my little attempt at humour.

Of course, I didn't worry about that...
