In what sense? Are you looking for Cruiser Command to be in different languages for different regions? From what I see, it is currently in all-English. Localization would work rather poorly for Europe, which has multiple languages spoken among its states. It may work better for the Korea server, but I don't think any of the players know any Korean players.

I don't think Siretu would hate the idea knowing there's a playerbase desiring it, but I also doubt he has the skills to make fluent translations. He'd have to get someone to help him with that.
... hint hint. If you wanted, I could get you a complete list of all of the text that would normally appear in the game. For the most part it'll be a matter of retrieving a lot of my former Wikipedia edits is all.

I can actually extract text files with ALL text in the game. I even made a script that can merge newer versions of the game text with older translated versions. I sent all this to Ethern a long time ago, I'm just not sure why he hasn't used it yet.

I know all this
But my point is that you should start with what I sent you and then when you're done with that, we can go on to more previous versions.

so we are required to finish the very previous version to acquire the latest one?

Well, you got to start somewhere and as I explained thoroughly in the email I sent you, you wont have to do it all over again since you'll basically be able to merge the text with my python script so you only have to translate the new text.
The reason for this is that I want you to experiment with what you have first so I can be sure everything works properly.

Translation done,some questions
1,email address?
2,if some strings are changed in updating,will your python script be able to recognize change in original text and notice us that we should make some fix?
