French translation: proofreading pass and fixes for v1.5.2 → 1.5.3

Summary

This is a proofreading and correction pass on the existing French translation (Atver, Vectrex28), updated to match the current English source (v1.5.3).

Changes

Grammar & spelling

  • Fixed numerous gender/number agreement errors (adjectives, past participles) across the Logs/lore text
  • Fixed missing elisions (si ils'il, de Ashd'Ash)
  • Fixed missing accents throughout (Selectionner, Exterieur, Mechanisme, Reduit, etc.)
  • Fixed several false friends / anglicisms (stagestade, léthalelétale, évidencespreuves, malfonctionnentdysfonctionnent)
  • Fixed a duplicated save room name (Save13 was labeled the same as Save09; corrected to match Western Cave)

Terminology

  • Standardized "Metroid"/"Metroids" to the official Nintendo French terminology, "Métroïde"/"Métroïdes", consistently across all Logs, item tips, HUD labels, and cutscene text

Content sync with English 1.5.3

  • Misc.Monster_Text: fixed singular/plural mismatch with the English source
  • Misc.Translation: fixed incomplete/truncated string
  • ExtrasMenu.Extras_Tip: was incorrectly using leftover text from a file section divider instead of an actual translation of "Additional Content"
  • TrooperLogs_Text4, Text6, Text8: these three entries had fallen out of sync with a since-revised English source (missing/extra sentences, one mistranslation of "tremor" as "explosion", and one passage that no longer matched the current English narrative at all). Retranslated from the current English text.

Notes

  • Verified 1:1 key parity between the English and French .ini files (no missing/extra keys in any section)
  • Version bumped to 1.5.3 in the header to match the English source

I provide the full corrected .ini file as an attachment.
(it's a txt, just rename it .ini)
