Fallout: Sonora, a new project by the developers of Fallout: Nevada

Sonora it's not a simple mod like Resurrection, almost everything was modified. And you need new executable file anyway... so what is difference?

I explained already... Sonora *have to* be dependant on original installation of Fallout2 to be considered a 'mod' instead of piracy. At least Sonora has to rely on Master.dat and Critter.dat from original Fallout2, Sonora can't come bundled with those files, they have to be separately inserted by the player from player's owned Fallout2. Ofcourse i mean original Fallout2 master and critter dats, not some fancy custom made, however Sonora still has to rely on original files from fallout2 which must not be shipped with Sonora.
Come on.. Don't tell me You don't get it how intelectual property laws work.. It's quite obvious stuff for us folk west of the EU eastern border. So how come All You guys keep asking me what I'm babbling about?
 
Hi everyone, anyone knows a thing about the translation for english ?

I just downloaded the crappy translation here in the site, corrected some bugs of the game and played a lot, but got stuck in one mission, i think is the last one, im a kinda lost right now.

thinking now, i think the game still in ALPHA stage, correct ? Anyone knows something new about the game ?????
 
search for user: _Pyran_ while logged-in You'll be able to see his signature. in that signature there's a link to archive where Sonora Patches are. Last one present there is 1.05. since latest 1.06 is present only on russian torrents for now. The human made translation is in progress. You can find link to it's discord somwhere on the forum. Not much going on in there besides trolls showing off. the translation detailed discussion is either kept private or off server. the AI translation is only compatible with version 1.00 of the game, and the person feeding the AI with data made a lot of mistakes whlie copy pasteing the data, hence some lines are missing a.k.a "ERROR" lines, and radio walkie-talkie crashes the game to desktop because of the same reason. Games dialogs changed a bit from patch to patch so the early v1.00 AI translation someone linked somwhere on this forum is even less compatible. However some Russian guys are making a human made line by line translation based on latest patch, however nobody knows how much progress has been made, guys themselves keep quiet about it, so nobody knows nothing.

TL:DR
Game itself is officially released, and patched, although only in original language of the mod "Russian". The rest of the world has to wait until proper translation is made.
 
Is there an easy way, e.g. a public platform, where I can chip in a few hours to help with the translation?
 
Here's the latest update from the Translation team. More info, as always, on the Discord server: discord.gg/ECGgQeG

>>> After months of translation, the game still has much dialogue to present to us; but the progress is slowly and surely being made. Yet, it's not all about dialogue here. The voice acting -- however occasional it may be in those classic titles -- plays a role in the grand scheme of things, so we're thinking you might just enjoy this little intro cutscene we've got here.​

Some recent info about Sonora update which includes Dayglow

I wouldn't expect the 2077 borders to still hold any value by that point. People could have migrated way before the new societies started to establish themselves.

The border thing is important in relation of the pre-war circumstances, and post-war migration was basically a death sentence in the wasteland especially around the time of F1. Even the Brotherhood lost members during the Exodus, and they had a relatively small group with almost everyone wearing Power Armors and made a relatively short trip within South Cali. Now imagine enough people getting to the Boneyard to spread the language, all through the wasteland filled with critters and probably raiders. Plus between the Mexican border and the Boneyard, there was the Glow. After the NCR was formed and stabilized the area it would be possible, but before that, I don't see a chance.

It's no longer a secret that the addition is about Daylight (San Diego and its environs). A large location with 10 districts, and almost all of them have 3 levels. Of these 10, 2 + about 25% of the events remained. But everything is going very slowly and hard.

Meanwhile probably next week a new version with some fixes and changes to the base game will be uploaded.

Sorry I don't get this. The translation will be available next week?
And the mod makers are working on expanding their mod?
 
No, next is an update to the game that fixes some bugs, adds some graphical changes and some other stuff (among them 2 new movies, spit attack for scolopendra and a previously cut quest).

Separate from this is an expansion with Dayglow that's nearly complete.

No concrete dates for the translation, but majority of it is done and the team recently started revising some of the files translated earlier.

If anyone's interested I have decided to test Google Translator and translated the Sonora Bible and compendium of cut content for Nevada.

Read the Nevada entirely, but only the first location of Sonora to avoid spoilers and it's an alright translation.



(Sonora Bible in 2 parts+ Quest concepts+ art concept book)

https://www.mediafire.com/file/axnpf0agveiszxu/Sonora.zip/file


(Cut locations and quests+ design document for Wendover

https://www.mediafire.com/file/k7r6ppsto4s55t4/Nevada.zip/file
Click to expand...

I downloaded Nevada zip yesterday. I tried Sonora a few minutes ago. Page redirected to an Opera page ! Back to mediafire and the old download broken, download repair tool etc. NO WAY.
 
Fallout: Sonora v1.10 (without sfall, hrp, etc.) from mail.ru.

Update 1.10 is available on the website.

I'll post it later. Until you see how it works.



Found bugs were fixed, graphics improved and supplemented, the detective quest on the Platform was completed, the level with the hangar in Tucson was completed, a new video with the ship explosion was made, centipedes were spitting on the world map, and other minor changes.



And this is probably the last patch.
