No that's fine, i'm nearly finished with it . It's not a lot of pages to translate, only 7.

Okay great, happy to see that I'll be able to test the new patch soon then

I've finished the Dutch readme . I have mailed it to you Litude.
I'm glad I could be of service to this great patch.
If you have any other problems or work, don't hesitate to ask .

This means the beta will be soon available for us Dutchies too? Awesome!

Some mighty fast work you have done! I still need three things translated:

German strings
-> "Gasth?fe in Missionen hinzugef?gt, in denen die AI zu wenig hatte, um Verhungern zu verhindern"
-> "Verb?ndete St?dte sind nun immer von Anfang an sichtbar"
-> "Jetzt auch kompatibel mit Windows Vista und Windows 7"

Hello to all. I am from Russia. How can i help? Ivery want to see 1.60 in Russian, because it i lot of bugs in TPR campaign.
P.S. My English is bad, bud i have a friend, who knows it perfectly.
P.P.S. In Russian version of TSK the Scout is stronger tnan Axe Fighter(I think it right, because Scout is more expensive, than Axe fFighter), and the Knight stronger than Swordman.
But in TPR Scout=Axe Fighter, and Knight=Swordman. It's really wrong, i think. Because Scots and Knights now unuseful. Only mobility. This bonus not so cool, to produce these units.
P.P.P.S. And one more bug in the game. Take our longbowmen/crossbowmen. One of them go due from north to south. Another go due from south to north. The range of second guys are longer!!! In 1 point. It's rally bad too.
I am really sorry if i wrote it not there.

About the Scouts being equally strong as the axe fighter: That's how it's supposed to be. The scout (and knight)'s only advantage is speed, which makes them more effective against archers/crossbowmen.

@Thunderwolf: You're wrong. Aside from the speed and attack values, there's also "lifes" value. It's higher for mounted units (3, and 2 for infantry IIRC), and that makes a difference.

@Nuutburz: The patch makes some changes in units' data file, and I bet that it uses values mentioned above.

@kuba11100: Thank you very much! I really glad, that you answered me. Tomorrow my friend comes to me at 17:00 PM Moscow time. And i can talk to you much better.

What about bowmen/crossbowmen? Do you really think, that Adam Spyurs and Peter Olman do that intentionally? I think it is a bug, because the south player is in more favourable position than north player.
And whether it is possible to correct it?

P.S. We are in Russia can't solve the problem with load saved games. The process is not going on. Only if we play by LAN. Unfortunately, there is no much fans of KaM and we are compelled use Hamachi programm.

No one has discovered how does the (cross)bowmen attack range work yet.

Multiplayer doesn't work well in TPR, consider using TSK instead (you can load games, no desynch bug etc.)

@kuba11100: We are also playng in TSK. Because it contain minimum bugs. But what the progrmm are you using? There in Russia majority of users have only internal IP-address, and are compelled use the Hamachi programm.

Yes, most people use Hamachi in that case.

Tunngle might work as well, though essentially being the same as Hamachi..

Yeah, life values are different as well, which should be making them last in a fight a little longer.

I think the attack range for ranged units is hardcoded in the source somewhere.. It's a simple case of having forgotten to add a +1 modifier for south / east directions.. maybe a single line of code.. without source code though, that can't be changed.
