I'm curious, have you actually properly tested using the easter egg after doing this, as I cannot get plus to recognise "alternative" text so to speak... Whenever I send an insult with different text to the original insult in Plus! 3, it does not get recognised.

Anyway, as the script stands, translation of the insults will not be possible.

it doesn't get recognised in plus 3 simply because plus3 it makes a mere comparation between the insult you send him and that in his dll where all the insult texts are stored...using resource hacker to see the dll i discovered that the id number of an insult is the reply's id number minus 10...so it simply checks the answer/insult you send and compares it...
i've tested it and it worked, but the texts in my dll and my friend's dll were the same 'cause i sent him the modified dll...the 2 dlls must be identical...or the insults won't of course be recognised...sorry for the bad english..

And therein lies the problem. If the insults were translated, the original Plus! 3 DLL's would have to be modified also to retain backwards compatibility (which I'd assume is probably against the EULA ).

Anyway, I hope to release this soon, as my testers and I have been hard at work ironing out little bugs, and I feel it is almost ready for release (and about time too, I started this thing months ago ). Oh and there's the matter of the scripting contest (which would be nice to win, but i'd be more than happy with just a t-shirt )

A tshirt with "you found melee island treasure" written on it... well, yes it's surely against the EULA....well luckily i know english so i can use the script in english too!
