Is it possible for you to upgrade to adapt to the German version of X-Wing Alliance? After installation, the game is in English.

The videos and voice output files from the German version work. However, if I download the file "xwa.tab" for the German text in the game use, errors occur in the graph of the star background. Can you fix it? Also my computer is using 1600x900 resolution. Is it possible to customize the game to it? I own the CD version and the German version of Gog.

No. Xwa.tab file does not work with mods. You have to keep your text in english to avoid terrible bugs

Yes, that's me known. Can you please "xwa.tab" compatible to mod do? I swapped to the background of the stars and the mission files to the original file, the game seems to work for now. The resolution is set to 1440x900, the font in the game is good to read. That should go but is not it? Installed the Mod 1.0.

It is actually possible to alter xwa.tab to reflect the changes made by the upgrades?

I do not know if you can adjust the "xwa.tab"? I hope here in the forum for help. I played the 1.0 version of the upgrade to the German CD version. Then the xwa.tab have enabled and installed the backdrops, but put here the star background back. So it worked until now.

Upload your German XWA.TAB file and I'll fix the backdrop problem for you

Altering the xwa.tab is a long and boring work: it contains the list of all objects in all missions. To fix the new backdrops, the position in the list of all planets, nebula stars etc. must be changed reflecting the position in the new missions.
An easier work could be to delate from the list all informations concerning the translation of all names in the missions, keeping the briefing, radio messages and everything present outside the missions...

That's what I basically do, remove all the co-ordinates for the backdrops so the backdrop co-ordinates in the mission files are priority, it doesn't take that long now actually and I don't mind, but that's all I'm doing though I'm not translating and adding to them
