[DISCLAIMER]

This is a game i made back in 2002, it was in spanish language, then now in 2007 it was just sitting on my computer, then i decided to translate it and do some sort of remake, while keeping the old look, but just better. To know about the version update of the game, please refer to the What's NEW section below... if you decide to play this DEMO, please if you give feedback, focus on the game itself, the errors/bugs aren't as important as I beta test this game all the time. Also I am looking for talented reviewers to write reviews for Soldier's Quest. Either English/spanish speakers.


HISTOIRE

Long ago... In ancient legends, it tells of the existence of powerful dark power capable of destroying anything it touches. Bloodlines, the legendary magic Only known by mysterious owners of a vast and powerful land... the Nox hierarchy.

It is unknown how the Nox, inheritors of this power, could handle such magnificent energy without being consumed by it while casting it. Although They could have conquered the world easily with this power, they only used it to work on making their land the most advanced civilization on earth.

As time passed people became amazed by the Nox's knowledge and power, up to the point that greed took over them and the world was engulfed in the flames of war. As the battles continued, casualties increased great enough for both sides, including members of the Nox hierarchy, causing its ruler to take drastic measures against the rest of the world.

The Nox ruler casted Bloodlines, unleashing chaos and destruction to everything that was across its path, to the point that the world itself would become extinct. But not everything was lost, Seven maidens with the power of Light reunited and casted a powerful magic in order to seal this malevolent power.

With Bloodlines unavailable the Nox hierarchy was defeated, and their land was forsaken in the dust. From generations the holy maidens were there to protect the seal in order to prevent humanity's greed from causing future catastrophes...

...many years have passed after this great conflict making these tragic events part of the past, but not for long, as once again rumors have arisen of the existence of a survivor from the Nox hierarchy.

SEE YA ON THE NEXT UPDATE![Ausrufezeichenflut]!!

-ANTIFAREA

This in air great good to make but we are French-speaking. Would a French version be available?

Citation :

Ca à l'air super bien fait mais nous sommes francophones.
Une version française serait-elle disponible?

Traducteur power^^

Argh ! De l'anglais !
J'y comprend rien !
Vite une traduction !
Please !

Message inutile, si l'auteur a posté en anglais, c'est qu'il est incapable de le faire en français!

Et Zoltar qui me dit qu'il comprends rien a photoshop, quel idiot!
Zoltar:A cause de toi on va replonger et Zarmak' va nous coller l'avatar alors n'engraine pas!xD

-->Good work.

Merci! Apologies the post, neither the actual game is in french yet, I can understand some words, but dont really know the language good enough to make the whole post in francais. I am going to be working on a french translated version of Soldier's Quest, hopefully soon, i can get it done in no more than 3 days, but i have to find one of my friends that is willing to translate it, and that of course speak fluent french language. Either way, thanks a lot if you checked the project out, hope you enjoy it. I will keep you guys updated when i start with the french translation, also i will have the same person translate the post for me as well.

I understand english pretty well and I readed your game description. I liked the idea of your game. A game influenced by Fire Emblem, Final Fantasy and Castlevania, they're my favorite games. I will keep an eye on this post for news ^^

******************************
TRADUCTION/TRANSLATION

Je comprend bien l'anglais et j'ai lu ton post sur la description de ton jeu. J'ai bien aimé l'idée du jeu. Un jeu influencé par Fire Emblem, Final Fantasy et Castlevania, ce sont mes jeux favoris. Je vais garder un oeil sur ce post pour voir les nouvelles.

Hey thanks for letting me know of your opinion. One thing, I know that for now the post and the game demo is in english/spanish... but I am really contacting people who speak both francais/english so they can contribute and translate this demo and the post so most of you can understand and enjoy the game. I mean i do know many things in french, but when it comes to communication/forming sentences... Its horrible, trust me. I want to learn francais as well german also, but at the moment It cant really happen. Unfourtunately I dont have anyone yet guaranteed that can do the translation, but im working things out around here, i promise I will do my best to find someone willing to do the translation of the game script and then i will adapt the text to the game so things will be much more easier for you guys to understand, also when i come with the french version it will feature more things and im working at the moment redesigning the battle charsets among other things, many people dislike the battle charasets based on RTP templates... Things will be much better, and im already working on it in overall to make sure i let it happen. Thanks again! and im glad you guys dont mind having me in the community. au revoir.

If you want, I can Help you with some translating...But we should converse in PM...now, we are just filling your game topic...

**************************
TRADUCTION/TRANSLATION

Si tu veux, je peux aider pour la traduction...Mais on devrait aller en MP parce que maintenant, nous ne faisons que remplir ce sujet...

Hey that really is a good idea, besides the PM, do you either have AIM or MSN? cause that would be even much easier... and the translation in francais, i will have to give you a script of the story in easily made so things are adapted propertly for RPGMAKER. I will PM you with my screenames, it will be far more easier if you can translate the game, its not as much text since this is a short demo. And i will credit you big time. guaranteed. okay, i'll proceed now haha.

I think your project may interest much people, but I don't understand, why are you talking about your project on french forum? You said that you want to make a french version of your game, but why? (maybe one question has the answer of the other question, maybe not).


Don't speak in french (unless you want to work your french), it's good for the frenchies who are BAD in english! Oui, toi le membre qui sait pas parler anglais, bosse ton anglais et plus vite que ça! (Yes, you member who can't speak english, go work your english and quickly!)


And... are you coming from an english forum who want (or may agree) to create link between french and english forum? It could be interesting. Et qu'est-ce que ces fichus crapauds pensent d'entretenir des relations avec un forum de rosbeef ? (And what those fucking froggys think about make relationship with a forum plenty of rosbeef? )

Actually I am a member of various english and spanish forums... I go around many other communities browsing and checking other people's projects out, there are many interesting creations everywhere aside from the english communities/websites. Language is just a matter of understanding each other propertly, but work done is something universal.

A link between communities that speak a different language? well that is really interesting. Me unfourtunately dont moderate any forums, im just a member everywhere i go. But im sure if it interest you, there should be a way for this to happen sometime in the future or something... I want to learn other languages, such as french and german. I back then a long time i took french in highschool, so i can get around with a couple of words. But forming sentences and writing paragraphs is unknown to make them propertly written, same as speaking it, pronunciation. I am looking for someone who is willing to translate the story in the demo version in french, same as the post, cause its much more easier and convenient.

Either way, I appreciate speaking english back, and allowing this post to stay since this whole different language attempt make me feel like a hardcore outsider haha. Je parler espagnol as well, if any of you knows it too. I'm currently working on this game next version that will cover up many things, including the battle charsets new design, not based on RTP templates.

Really interesting! I like yours maps and your graphic style. But what I like beter is yours cutscenes, good work! I didn't read your scenario cause I don't have lots of time. I trust you .

Okay, I see...

German, it interests me too.


Did you have some good forum (english or german) which we might create relationship?

Et il y a toujours pas de traduction ¨(

that is an interesting question... I know of one that it might be possible, its called Angel Spire Productions: http://www.angel-spire.com/, in english...
also with some decent projects, but more interactive forum is RRR Community (RPG RPG REVOLUTION) http://www.rpgrevolution.com/.

In german at the moment I am only a member of one, RPG2k.de http://rpg2k-forum.de/. I know some spanish websites as well, interested? And if you played this version of Soldier's Quest, for the next one i'm making right now at home it will feature newly designed battle charasets, as well many more picture cutscenes and locations of the maps you couldn't go to are now done. Also special battle effects w/ japanese voices taken from other commercial games.

Thank you for the links, I hope I can realise my ideas. Spanish don't interest me now, but if Zarok makes relationship with forum of others langages, I will contact you to take others links of forums.

Good idea, about japanese voices. Good luck!

cortez: Ca nz se fait pas en un claquement de doigt, surtout qu'il est en train de faire un jeu en plusieurs langues...

Ah ok^^
Merci Zarma

hey no problem. And thanks for wishing the luck haha, i will deffinitely be needing it since out of nothing my computer is acting up on me lately. Things are still on the bright side, so i should be releasing the upcoming version by the beginning of january. And well hope things work out with the communities, let me know if anything man.

I have uploaded a new DEMO of Soldier's Quest. For those of you who are still interested. I have updated the post as well. Check the features, and the download section to get the new version available!

I love your game.
I will try it tommorow
---------
J'aime bien ton jeu
Je vais l'essayer demin

hey, merci! haha, I hope you like this version, I fixed a couple of things around this time. Please give me your opinion about the game, I might not be able to reply as often since I'm going on vacation today until a couple of days, but when I come back I promise to answer back

Also I forgot to add to the post, that I've been looking for someone who can translate the dialogue into french language, but unfourtunately I haven't been able to find anyone available for doing it... but I deffinitely have in mind the possible release of a french translated version of SQ. Well I gotta go, until then, au revoir.

Il te remercis, espere que cette version te plait, et te demande ton opinion auquel il ne pourra répondre de suite car il part en vacance aujourd'hui et pour deux jours.
Il cherche aussi quelqu'un capable de traduire les textes en français, car il cherche depuis quelques temps.

to Antifarea :
I would have enjoyed helping you for the translation, but I don't have enough time... I hope you will find someone ^^. I may can translate several dialogue... but very few. I'm not totally bilingual after all, and I have a project too (and my classes >.<).

EDIT KREA : quelques fautes de syntaxe ^^. Pas un gros problème.
edit alex : nonono ça marche aussi comme ça, hehe mon cour actuel en anglois est sur la modalité, donc je crois etre bien placé ^^ (le can était aussi bon, car j'en ai la capacité, et can désigne la capacité, mais aussi la permission, ce qui n'est pas le cas ici). D'ailleur je me permet de te montrer une de tes fautes : dans le cas de ton post, on ne dit pas "like", mais "as".

Like I alredy said before, I can help you with translation. I'll tell you my e-mail by private message so we can talk face to face (kind of...)

--------------
Traduction :
Comme je l'ai dit précédemment, je peux t'aider avec la traduction. Je te dirai mon addresse e-mail en message privé pour que nous parlions face à face (en quelque sorte...)

sorry everyone, I didn't get to see this posts earlier... I was on vacation like i said, and yeah kreationist, I'm interested in working around in getting a translation in french for this project... give me the email or something, actually I will check out my pm's in case you did it already, if not, then send it.
