Wanted: French Translator for Ages of Ilathid

So, after some recent alpha testing experiences at Ages of Ilathid, we've decided that it would be a boon to the French Myst community to translate our current in game/out of game docs into French. I'm wondering if anyone here speaks French and would be willing to help us out? :)

The project would probably amount to some 12 pages of text, some of it more legalistic, i.e. an NDA, and some of it in journal format. (You'd need to have good grammar and spelling, of course.)

If you're interested, send me a pm or reply here. Would be grateful for the assistance! :)

(And feel free to move this topic if it's in the wrong spot. I wasn't sure where to put it.)

Great to hear that Ilathid is still around! Oh... and you too. :P


French legalese? Sounds like a job for any able and willing Chakal, if one happens to be lying around.

lol, yep! ^.~ The reports of our demise were greatly exaggerated. I mostly work on Ages of Ilathid now, which doesn't bring me over here too often.

So I know it will be a hard blow, but tell me...how many giant crystal Ages have you guys been building in my absence? ;)

Is this urgent? I'm rather busy right now with other translation and Guild work, but maybe in a couple of weeks I'll have more time (depending on my duties to the GoMe and the GoW).
Otherwise, I could translate your work en français avec le plus grand plaisir. ;)

Nah, it's not urgent; a few weeks would be fine. :) (So shall I just get back to you on May 1st?) Thank you much for the help; it'll make things a lot easier for the French players in our community.

Yes, get back to me towards that time. I *might* be able to start sooner. It all depends.

Hi Jennifer,
I just happened to see this, I don't come around as often as I used to do.
I'll be glad to translate any material you send me in reasonable amounts.
If there's large amounts of it, maybe you can spread it around a few translators.
