Dungeon Key description faulty

[AmProsius]

"des Alten Lagers" from Dungeon Key should be translated to English.

It seems like this issue is already fixed in the scripts we have (see below). Does it exist in the English retail version of the game?

If there are versions of the game that contain this incorrect description, we can verify it and if necessary correct it. I can't hurt - but we could save some time if it turns out, it's not necessary to fix.

Lines 399 to 417 in 18734a9

	//---------------------------------------------------------------------

	INSTANCE DungeonKey(C_Item)
	{
	name = "Dungeon Key";
	mainflag = ITEM_KAT_NONE;
	flags = ITEM_MISSION;
	value = 3;
	visual = "ItKe_Key_03.3ds";
	material = MAT_METAL;
	description = name;
	TEXT[0] = "Opens the dungeons";
	TEXT[0] = "of the old camp.";
	};

This very fix is actually mentioned in the release of the scripts we are using. I don't quite understand, if that was just a bug in the mod-kit scripts and the complied scripts were already correct.

If someone has access to a retail version of the game we could confirm it.

Nevertheless, if in doubt, we might as well just go ahead and add a fix that replaces the text given it is wrong.

I extracted the gothic.dat file of the English version from GOG with DecDat and the issue seems fixed there:

instance dungeonkey(c_item) {
    name = "Dungeon Key";
    mainflag = item_kat_none;
    flags = item_mission;
    value = 3;
    visual = "ItKe_Key_03.3ds";
    material = mat_metal;
    description = name;
    text = "Opens the dungeons";
    text = "of the old camp.";
};

I will close this issue then as the missing translation is not present in the current retail version of the game.

This is the actual fix:

gothic-1-community-patch/scriptbase/_work/Data/Scripts/Content/Items/MissionItems_5.d

Lines 414 to 416 in 18734a9

	description = name;
	TEXT[0] = "Opens the dungeons";
	TEXT[0] = "of the old camp.";

changed to

     description         = name; 
     TEXT[0]             = "Opens the dungeons"; 
     TEXT[1]             = "of the old camp."; 

[szapp]

Could someone confirm if this is still a language dependent bug, or the scripts look the same in the German localization?

[AmProsius]

The bug is also present in the German scripts:

	description			= name;
	TEXT[0]				= "öffnet den Kerker";
	TEXT[0]				= "des Alten Lagers.";
