Translation for Map Description

I've worked recently on czech translation of the game and maps and found one thing which bother me - You can't translate map description in SP maps menu and lobby (I mean Title, BigDesc, SmallDesc). Is it hard to make it libx file for Translation Manager (please don't think I don't like english, but I want to make it complete) ?
I fixed The Shattered Kingdom and The Peasants Rebellion here!

Re: Translation for Map Description

I agree.
Mostly I haven´t problems with sp missions, unless all campaigns are translated completly into polish :-)
However the MP maps, specialy the big load of new scripted maps, with own rules, makes things harder for many players.
Often when you try to play special maps like Conquest, Fun with flags or similar maps, people just ask 20 times, when the game already started, because they don´t understand English that well.
So maybe there should be really a possibility to translate these texts, and make it same like with messages in campaigns: If there is no translation, just let the game take the standard english one?!

Re: Translation for Map Description

what about special line in libx file for map description? For example zero line:

(.libx file):
  Code:
0:Map description here 1:Message1 2:Message2 3:Overlay text1 ...

Re: Translation for Map Description

I agree, map descriptions should be part of the LIBX file, at least optionally for those who want to (it's only really important when the description says something useful, like in scripted missions). I've added it to the todo list for the next release.
