This document lists some general guideline on taking the screenshots for the
|
|
manual. Please adopt it to the correct version of the time you are taking the
|
|
screenshot and make sure to point the entry in the po file to the correct
|
|
screenshot.
|
|
The examples I give are based on the availability of the "imagemagick" tools
|
|
used for converting the images to jpg format.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here is a list of the general howto for the screenshots:
|
|
|
|
1) Take the "original" version as png or bmp.
|
|
|
|
2) Take the fullscreen screenshots in 1024x768.
|
|
|
|
3) Afterwards, convert the fullscreen screenshots to jpg and change the
|
|
resolution to 640x480 and set quality level to 80%. This is the command to use
|
|
when using imagemagick (change file name accordingly for the titlescreen
|
|
screenshot):
|
|
convert -resize 640x480 -quality 80 game-screen-1.5.7.png game-screen-1.5.7.jpg
|
|
|
|
4) For those "parts of the screen" screenshots just copy out the relevant part
|
|
from the full versions. All "non fullscreen" screenshots should be stored with a
|
|
compression/quality setting of 90% and in the original size. The imagemagick
|
|
command would look like this:
|
|
convert -quality 90 multiplayer-1.5.7.png multiplayer-1.5.7.jpg
|
|
|
|
5) Send the files in once you translated the strings in the po file. In the
|
|
translation use your locale as prefix/foldername. So if you were eg translating
|
|
to German, you would use 'de' as foldername where the images are in and the
|
|
filename for the game-screen screenshot would be this:
|
|
de/game-screen-1.5.7.jpg
|
|
de/multiplayer-1.5.7.jpg
|
|
Please send the screenshots in a separate archive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
As a hint where you could create the screenshots (that is: where the original
|
|
ones were taken):
|
|
* game-screen-1.5.7.jpg: 3rd scenario of two brothers, just jumping there with
|
|
:debug and :n and then letting the AI play some turns with :droid
|
|
* right_pane-1.5.7.jpg: right part from the "game-screen" screenshot
|
|
* top_pane-1.5.7.jpg: top part from the "game-screen" screenshot
|
|
* main-menu-1.5.7.jpg: the main menu (obvious, isn't it?)
|
|
* multiplayer-1.5.7.jpg: just the dialog that pops up when clicking on
|
|
'multiplayer' in the main menu, take care to set the player name to the default
|
|
value 'player' (or whatever it is in your lang, since this one is a
|
|
translatable string)
|
|
* recruit-1.5.7.jpg: start a skirmish game and select elves as your race, click
|
|
on recruit and take a screenshot of the dialog popping up
|
