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 il → s'il, de Ash → d'Ash)
- Fixed missing accents throughout (
Selectionner, Exterieur, Mechanisme, Reduit, etc.)
- Fixed several false friends / anglicisms (
stage → stade, léthale → létale, évidences → preuves, malfonctionnent → dysfonctionnent)
- 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.
