Report RSS FX 2.0 (CN) + Translator Job + New Website + v2.0 release media

A jam-packed newsletter covering the release of 2.0 & providing info how to speed up the international version.

Posted by on

Greetings, FX Fans!

Today we bring you news. Lots of news. Lots of awesome news, to be more precise. After all, FX 2.0 is here, and those who can bear with the Chinese text are in for a free ride.

FX 2.0 (Chinese) Release

The Chinese version of the FX Mod has been released. It will be up for download in the Downloads section later today. Additional installation instructions will be provided. Please bear in mind that this is a Chinese release; it has no English names and thus should only be considered as a live test / preview of the English v2.0.

This new version comes with a lot of changes. In the absence of (English) patch notes, we have set up a thread on our forum where you can share your findings and things you encounter as you make your way this version. It should make for both something fun to do and give us some preliminary patch notes in the process: Moddb.com . Of course, feel free to use the forum to your heart's content to discuss anything else about the mod.

A new version also means new bugs / technical issues; for those please seek out the Bugs / Technical Support section on the forum and do NOT post them in the comments.

Looking For: Translator (Chinese -> English)

The 9CCN team is looking for someone who can help them with translating the content from Chinese to English, as well as upload this English version of the FX mod for the Western audience. If you are capable of doing that and / or know someone who is, please contact [dreadnought9ccn] at this email address: 34830659@qq.com

Having a CH -> EN translator will greatly speed up the English release of the mod, as well as ensure higher quality grammar / unit descriptions. Please spread the word about this job to whatever place you can. No translator = months of delay before we get the English version, if at all.

9CCN Page Updated

The 9CCN page @ MoDDB has been updated with their email address and website. You can now more easily contact them and / or look up the latest FX news. Moddb.com

2.0 Release Media

Additional 2.0 screenshots / concept art will be added to the ModDB page in the course of the day to commemorate the Chinese release of FX v2.0.

Oh man, congratulations on the big release!

If only I could translate...The most I can do is edit any already-translated texts for grammar and readability, if you're interested.

Thanks for the offer! I think a translator has the highest priority, but a proofreader also sounds like a good idea.

For that you may want to contact dreadnought9ccn or wait for him to reply here.

Seeing as the other races received some major upgrades, it is possible that the Hiigaran / Vaygr were temporarily removed so that the team can experiment with and test new upgrades for the Hiig/Vay in all peace.

As you may have seen in the videos, a lot of the special abilities are experimental and require a lot of testing and finetuning.

Thank you, friends. Your work is as incredible as it's always been, and I'm looking forward to seeing more of those unbelievably sexy ships.
