Hello, everyone!
I want to localize BW2Redux into Russian.As I understand all texts are edited in this file, does anyone have a script similar to the existing program The BinEditor for the game M2TW, by the way this program helped open the original bw2text.bin (also have python 2.5 script, which I have attached below).
Question for you colleagues. Does anyone have something like this for our game? Or can sell for money? I do not want to hire a separate programmer for this
From Russia with love, sorry for the bad English.




Python:
# strings_bin_converter.py (c) 2006 Stefan Reutter (alias alpaca)
# Version 0.72
# A script to convert a number of MTW2 .strings.bin files to their .txt counterparts


import sys
import codecs
import struct
import os


def convertFile(filepath):
    """
    Takes a type 2 .strings.bin file and converts it to a text file
    """
    f = open(filepath+'.strings.bin', 'rb')
    (style1,) = struct.unpack('h',f.read(2))
    (style2,) = struct.unpack('h', f.read(2))
    if style1 == 2 and style2 == 2048:
        fw = codecs.open(filepath, encoding='UTF-16', mode='w')
        fw.write(unicode(struct.pack('HH',0xFFFE,0xAC00),'UTF-16')+'\r\n')
        (length,) = struct.unpack('i',f.read(4))
        for string in range(length):
            (strlen,) = struct.unpack('h', f.read(2))
            tagstr = ''
            for i in range(strlen):
                tagstr += unicode(f.read(2), 'UTF-16')
            (strlen,) = struct.unpack('h', f.read(2))
            screenstr = ''

                else:
                    screenstr += unicode(tempstr, 'UTF-16')
            fw.write('{'+tagstr+'}'+screenstr+'\r\n')
        fw.close()
    f.close()
