Hello,
some time ago I've created a small modification to BG II - a joinable NPC, half-orc, barbarian, Ashar.
You can read about her there - http://athkatla.cob-...p=123832#123832
Just download, install, and play! Well, at least, you could do it, if you know the Polish language

I started to translate her to English and at this moment, everything is (almost) ready, but I need your help.
As you probably see, my English isn't great. Well, the last time I was learning it at the beginning of my studies and later I used it mostly in stupid computer games.

So, I need someone who would help me in a text correction, native speaker preferably.
I know, I know, I know, I ask for a big favor - text revision is boring as hell, but in exchange you will get a new modification, maybe it is worth a risk?

Ashar isn't excessively expanded, but she has everything what a "good" NPC for BG II should have (at least, I hope she has). It's about 1500-1600 lines of dialogs, most of them are short.

Any volunteers?

Greetings! Pozdrawiam!

Well, I will not give up easily    I will spam this forum, week after week, until I find help - You've been warned

So, as I said before - I look for help in proof reading, any volunteers?

Keep trying. I would do it, but I edit ESL documents for a living and have very little time on the side (and am also traveling from country to country right now). But if I did have the time, I would surely translate a half-orc barbarian NPC mod. Especially if he's surly. (Is he surly?)

 

Edit: I can't understand Polish in the link you gave, but the half-orc looks vampiric, not just surly. If so, that would be badass. Make him half-drow while you're at it, and I may be in the mod translation business...

Well, Ashar is "she", for a start

 

Funny, you are not the first person who made this mistake, it must be hard to be a half-orc 

Anyway, maybe she is not very "surly", but she is aggressive and plainspoken, so...

 

I'm counting on you, when you will find some free time

Even better. Too bad I am a bit overstretched with projects at the moment, but if no one else takes you up, maybe in another month or so (no promises - I hardly get enough time to sleep these days).

It's much better than nothing   

 

In the meantime - I'm still looking for help - proof reading, NPC mod, anyone?
