<p>The software comes in two languages for the moment, <i>french</i> (the creator's native language) and <i>english</i> (main international language for the moment). The choice of the language is automatic and happens according to the language of your operating system (Windows).</p>

<p>The software comes in 3 languages for the moment, <i>french</i> (the creator's native language), <i>english</i> (main international language for the moment), and <i>norwegian</i> (translation brought by F. Husby). The initial choice of the language is automatic and happens according to the language of your Windows operating system.</p>

<p>If you nevertheless wish to display a specific language, or add your own translation, use the <i>Add/Modify a translation</i> command in the <i>&laquo; ? &raquo;</i> menu. You have to replace the contents of the language file that corresponds to the language that currently displays with the contents of the language file that corresponds to the language you want displayed. For example, replacing the contents of the <i>English.ini</i> file by the contents of the <i>French.ini</i> file, will make Chess Giants display in French what it previously displayed in English.</p>

<p>If you nevertheless wish to display another language, select it in the <i>Display</i> tab in the Game – Options menu (also available through the F4 key). The changes apply as soon as you validate the options by clicking the OK button.</p>

<p>In the same way, to add a new translation for a new language, duplicate one of the existing files (most preferably one that corresponds to a language that you are able to translate), give it the name of the language that you want (for example <i>Russian.ini</i>)*, then open this file with a text editor and translate each of the phrases this file contains. <i>Important: do not translate the <b>labels</b> before these phrases! Labels are what precede the "equal" sign (=) before each phrase. These labels must stay untranslated so that the software recognizes the phrases to which they correspond.</i></p>
