Re: translate metro 2033
I have tool to localization stuff, but you'll also need to edit fonts to add your characters. I think the game doesn't support arabic alphabet. I can't explain you how to do it, 'cause this is a bit complicated and in my translation another guy did it for me.
In short, you need to extract a .upk file, edit the fonts (.dds format), edit the font mapping file (in hex) and then use my localization tool to export/import the texts. After that, you compile a new .upk with only the new files included (fonts + texts) and rename it like: content.upk9. This works like a patch, the game always read the upper file (0 up to 9).
Here is the upk extractor/packer:

Here are the fonts + font mapping file:

The font mapping file is: scripts.bin
Try to follow my infos and edit fonts + pack the content.upk9
If you're able to do this, i'll share my loc tools for texts.

I am doing the localization of the metro 2033, and now I can unpack and pack the resource, but I need your localization tool to import the language text, so could you share your tool with me? thank you very much, my email address is xingzj0117@gmail.com
Thanks,
