Hi Sir Tainly, Wolfie, AzureWolf, hi !

I have nothing interesting to talk about right now, really, but I AM here.

Now that I have finished BG II, I am starting again BG I (I never finished it because my old computer would always throw me out of the game, and I got fed up with it

). I am suffering big time because I have it in French, and the translations are ... terrible ...

Lemme give you an example - yesterday, there was this dream with the mage I had defeated in the Nashkel mines, and somewhen the translation said something like 'his face started tottering forward' - as in French the word 'figure' exists but means 'face' - this is utterly ridiculous. I WANT TOB IN ENGLISH !!!

------------------

The world is my oyster !
And now I have the knives to open it ...
