AutoPatcher Forum

As you might know, AutoPatcher Vista is multilingual, and so, I need the correspondent translation strings (French, Italian, Dutch, Greek, etc) for the parent modules, so that they can be shown according to the Regional Settings used.


So, i need the strings that you use in the parent modules, that are:

Thank you.

Renato, wake up! Things are seriously starting again...
I guess that as the past (and present ?) Vista release manager you own everything to fullfill Antonis' request.
If not I can send him the latest copy I have.

I'm more awake that you think.

I have been thinking and i think that now I'll split between x86 and x64 versions of Vista.

What do you have to send me?

I have already noticed. I was joking.

I am not a Vista specialist, but obviously this will alleviate the load for people who are interested in one flavour of Vista only.

To answer Antonis' demand, I'll send this :

Otherwise, a file named AutoPatcher_WinXP_Aug07_x86_FRA_Core.exe should be sleeping somewhere on autopatcher.com. I uploaded it for Lyndon to make it official. It was the day before the "Sad Day"; and things stayed there...

What should be done to build the scripts for apup? Does it exist some automated way?

I understood that.

All the parent modules already included those translations strings, even the "\modules\windows_wga.apm".

Right now, there is only a pre-beta tool to create the scripts automatically.

May I give it a try ? Or is there anything else to do to start working again on translations ?

Can I be a Russian & Ukrainian translator of Autopatcher project. I love this stuff and wanna help to support.

@ patipata: I'll send you the script creator tool.

@ AndyJah: Yes you may. The best way to start, is using the latest version available (August 2007).

For the last three: I used "name" instead of "title" Didn't knew what to use.
So tell me if I'm needed for more translation for Vista. I'm a still a bit unsure of what to do, but Christiano is already helping me.

Thanks for the updates nitred. I went ahead and updated the parent modules in all releases.

Hope to be hearing more from ya. I'm sure a lot of people will apreciate your hard work =)

No, serious? That's all I have to do for Vista?

Man, that multilanguagethingie is great !

btw, I believe we all appreciate your hard work

> I went ahead and updated the parent modules in all releases.
please, advice the other translators before do that, or we may have kitte a few issues, like people saying something like "autopatcher has failed...". i've tested a few moments before and the md5 is still the same, but...

I am a autopatcher user and would love an option to download ONLY 32 bit packages for Vista. At least provide it as an option, i think all u will have to do is prepare separate scripts. Would be VERY helpful, i am trying to use autopatcher for Vista to save bandwidth on repeated downloads of updates after reinstall. But the current method instantly doubles the download size.
