British English Translation For Plus! Live by GiantSpider on 07-27-2006 at 12:16 AM

A mere 1 year and 8 months since the last version comes the latest and greatest version of this translation. After a barnstorming 193 people (believe it baby) downloaded the last one, this one is surely set for great things.

A discussion on what is different between this file and the default translation isn't necessary, however this does borrow heavily from fluffy_lobster's 'English language errors' thread

Installation Instuctions. Download the file, add it to the folder

C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! Live\Languages (Or whatever destination your language file is at).

Then either select it during installation or from you Plus! Preference window.

Released 25th March at 20:33 pm GMT <--- 4.60.0.324

Have fun! Any mistakes, drop them in here & I'll sort them out.

Customized / Customised has changed, Personalized / Personalised.

Dunno what else, I haven't looked in detail.

Technically, it is English. The English in the installer is American English.

I've toyed with the idea of a UK English translation: never got round to it.
* RaceProUK downloads and installs.


RE: British English Translation For Plus! Live by segosa on 07-27-2006 at 12:42 PM

I never realised people cared that much. :P


RE: British English Translation For Plus! Live by RaceProUK on 07-27-2006 at 02:38 PM

OK, I installed it, set Plus! to use it... and still had American spellings everywhere, even after restarting.

Edit: I prefer parenthesis.

Edit 2: In fact, all that appears to be different is the name of the language.

Watch your language there buddy. There are kids who read these forums. But its good you're being practical adding your prefered language(Y)

Technically, shouldn't the defualt be British/ Canadian English to at least honour the country that Patchou lives in?

And really, there isn't a major difference between British English and American English, the major (but is really minor) is with the -our and the -or.
