New App for Prack

Hi everyone!

Another fan that just found you. (Found being relative since I heard about you on another forum)

Any case, on to the App.

I would like to help out where I can, unfortunately even though I am a programmer I have zero experience in making games and I only have experience in Delphi and mssql so I doubt I will be much use there .

Actual reason I'm here is I saw the Bilinguals wanted thread and thought I could be of some use there though I realize that translation has a low priority at the moment.

My native language is Afrikaans with English as a second language.

Also I will be glad to help with bug hunting and such.

So let me know if you think I could be of some use.

P.S.
Just wanted to let you know,the welcome pm is displaying the HTML as plaintext

Welcome to Thrive Prack!

In terms of programming you don't need experience with making games, what will be useful is the fact that you know Delphi and mssql, since that will make it easier to learn the languages Thrive is coded in (mainly Lua and C++). Translation however is not that important to the project (can you point out where it said that we need translators? we should update that).

What exactly does the link appear like in the PM?

Delphi and mssql are quite different languages from what we use, but it certainly would be a good start if you're willing to learn! Lua would likely be the best place to start.

Bug hunting would be quite useful as well! General QA testing as well as trying to reproduce bugs that have previously been encountered (such as https://github.com/Revolutionary-Games/Thrive/issues/196)
