Dear Fellow Undead Gunslingers,
We greatly appreciate all of the time and hard work that some fans have invested in translating Hard West into different languages, and so we are very happy to announce that Patch 1.4,3 introduces [b]Support for Custom Language[/b] versions of the game and its DLC. This will enable almost everyone to easily enjoy these new translations of the game, should they wish to.
The complete localization kit for Hard West (including the Scars of Freedom DLC) is available for download, translation and sharing from this link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zvka8p4qmo20unb/AABnPR1IdWd3QM-C5iRb7Nbxa?dl=0
The above link also contains clear instructions for importing localized files and utilizing this new custom language support. In a nutshell however, this process simply involves extracting and merging the new localization files that you wish to use in the game’s local folder. The new feature then recognizes custom translations and displays them in the Options menu for easier access.
Please note that this Custom Localization support is Windows-Only for now. However we will look into developing and releasing this feature for the other platforms should there be a clear demand for it.
Thank you very much to everyone who has taken the time out of their life to translate Hard West into new languages on their own. Your passion never ceases to astound us, and we’re hoping that this custom localization support is a good first step in us showing our appreciation for your efforts.
Now let’s teach people the true meaning of vengeance in numerous whole new languages!
