Are there some French players here?

MallaxOZ · 27-09-2009, 17:38

I would like to play SMAC, but my game is in French, and I don't know if I can play with someone who has the game in English without causing some translate troubles.

Moreover, I don't understand everything I read here, as I always played in French, so it might be difficult to play fast if I have to search the explanation of each abreviation you use.

So, are there some French players who want to play SMAC in a PBEM ?

bdanv · 27-09-2009, 17:50

hi and welcome to WeplayCiv!

the only frech around here was Bodissey but he's inactive right now. there is another french player at Apolyton: guillaume70.

no problems reported so far from the two of them and i'm pretty sure guillaume70 is playing with the french version of the game.

if you play-by-email i don't think this should be a problem though you may find it more difficult if playing on TCP/IP.
for the abreviations you can use this small dictionary or if can't find the answer there, you can ask in the same thread and i'm sure someone will find some time to answer you.

MallaxOZ · 27-09-2009, 18:22

Thank you bdanv.

If there are no problems, I'm available to play. So, If someone wants to create a game in PBEM with SMAC (I don't find my SMACX !), i'm in.

Vishniac · 27-09-2009, 18:53

Je suis Suisse-Romand, donc francophone, et je suis sur ce forum tous les jours.
S'il y a besoin de traduire quelque chose, demande-moi dans ce thread et je m'en occupe. J'ai le jeu en Anglais mais j'ai encore le Guide Prima en Français si j'ai besoin d'un terme technique.
Je ne sais pas si quelqu'un verra d'un mauvais oeil qu'on discute en français pour faciliter; je ne pense pas.

(Translation: I speak French so I shall help him on this thread.)

first step: post your profile here. you can add in the Notes that you prefer playing with french speaking players. by the way: Eldramatico (Élian) is speaking french.

second step: start a new thread. call it "Le PBEM francophone" or something like that. state your preferences for the game like Dolgorukov did here and wait for someone to show up.

third step (optional): if your want someone to help you set up the game up the game, fair starting location, etc., then you will need also a CMN. just ask for one.

fed1943 · 28-09-2009, 13:22

well, I can play a smac pbem game (as i never played smax) and I don't care if it is in
English or French, but my CD is in English.

bdanv · 28-09-2009, 13:29

welcome to the Alpha Centauri Multiplaying section, fed1943! i think this is your first post here.

fed1943 · 28-09-2009, 23:09

Yes it is.
I never played smac mulyiplayer, even the interface is a big headache to me.
But...

Bodissey · 28-09-2009, 23:29

Well, I'm not this inactive - sorry bdanv ;-) - as I read your query. And although I have forgotten to play since july, it doesn't mean I'm quitting yet.

MP is a good way to learn. i will try to organize a game for you and MallaxOZ. we just need a third player (preferably a beginner). please post your profile here.

BTW: do you speak french?

Bodissey · 06-10-2009, 12:32

Je suis prêt à jouer et c'est quand vous voulez.
I'm ready to play and it's whenever you feel like it.

bdanv · 07-10-2009, 16:54

so we have 3 players: MallaxOZ, fed1943 and Bodissey all speaking french.
nous avons donc 3 joueurs: MallaxOZ, fed1943 et Bodissey et tous parlent français.

@ MallaxOZ : should i start building a scenario or not?
@ MallaxOZ : devrais-je commencer à construire un scénario, ou pas?

Salut,

Je suis un français jouant à smac, on m'a indiqué ton profil sur weplayciv.com, où j'ai laissé un post pour chercher des joueurs français. J'ai rien contre les anglophones, mais ayant l'habitude de jouer en français, j'ai un peu de mal avec les termes techniques du jeu en anglais et autres abréviations farfelues ^^

Joues-tu encore à SMAC ? Et si oui, es-tu partant pour un jeu par email ?

Merci !
A+

MallaxOZ

salut,
je viens seulement de voir ton message.
si ta proposition est toujours valable, oui pourquoi pas.
salut!
guillaume70

that makes 4 players. i hope it's not too late for MallaxOZ..
ça fait 4 joueurs. J'espère que ce n'est pas trop tard pour MallaxOZ ..

bdanv · 14-12-2009, 10:23

everyone's registered here, so we can start now.
do you want some special settings, or you want this to be a total surprise?

Bodissey · 14-12-2009, 10:36

I love surprises.

bdanv · 14-12-2009, 11:45

Bodissey, can you send an email to MalaxOZ asking him if he has some preferences? my French is rather archaic as Guillaume said at Poly, so i can use some help. i think you have his gmail address.

Bodissey · 14-12-2009, 12:35

Just sent an email by using the profile address. I do not have MallaxOZ's gmail address by the way.
I have asked him to state his preferences in this thread.
