Works, but may need extra effort. Results from Valve's own testing.

Game Crashing on Start (for some players)It seems my last update did not fix the bug where the game would crash on starting. I believe this one may solve the problem. I think the bug has to do with the way certain game folders are named in the script. I encounโฆ
Save Slots The game had a bug where you could accidentally save your game into the wrong save slot. This would produce a number of unfortunate side effects like losing inventory and map information. The game should now prevent this accidental changing of save โฆ
Window Size I have updated the options menu to increment the window size differently. Instead of increments of 1 unit, the game now increments the window size in units of 640. So when you push right, it will go from a width of 640 to 1280, then 1920 and so on.โฆ
Inventory Bug Thanks to some fantastic player feedback I was able to resolve (I think) the inventory bug where moving and managing inventiory coudl cause stacked items to disappear. It turned out that pressing space more than once, when selecting the number ofโฆ
Crash So this time I realized I had changed a few DirectX graphics settings between versions, related to mip-mapping and anisotropic filtering. It did not seem significant to me at the time, but after going through a lot of the comments, people with AMD cards โฆ
Crash I have gotten some feedback on the code I am using in the multilingual version of the game, and I am attempting some of the suggestions. Once again, some players are experiencing a crash when starting the game. I have not been able to reproduce the crashโฆ
Game Rolled BackThe code handling all the translations was unstable. I can't figure out why just yet. So I have rolled the default version back to 1.3.4, and put the new version under: "Islands of the Caliph > Properties > Game Versions and Betas > Multilinguaโฆ
Last Time I Swear Okay this is the last time I will attempt to fix this bug the way I have been. If this does not work, I will roll the game back to the most stable, previous (English only) version, and work on the different languages in a separate branch untiโฆ
Narrowing Down So as mentioned in the last update, when you load the game, it creates a file called: "loading.log" You can find the file here: "C:\\Users\\-Your Username-\\AppData\\Local\\Islands_of_the_Caliph"I have added more log entries to this file to helpโฆ

New Camera MovementI heard you, I was just not good enough to do it. Now I figured out how to program the game in a way that allows more tight camera movement, without having the player spin around in the wrong direction :) I noticed that this method also remoโฆ
Update: The Demo has just been updated too. Three new translations are available!Now you can play Islands of the Caliph in Indonesian, Spanish and Portuguese. Go to the options panel from the main menu, go to languages, and select the language of your choice. โฆ
I am excited to announce that Islands of the Caliph is now bundled with Heroes of the Seven Islands, in the "Island RPG Bundle!" If you already have one game, you can get the discount on the other!
Chinese Language (Official Version)A very supportive and industrious player has translated the game into Chinese! I was able to go through and make sure it fits in the UI and that there are no obvious errors. But of course I may have missed some details. Also,โฆ

German LanguageI was able to get a real German speaker to review all the German language files and store page description. It is still in a preliminary testing phase as there are some small bugs that require work, but overall it seems to function as designed. โฆ
I was able to iron out all the bugs in the language script. Note: this does not mean the translation is good or even fully tested yet. But if there are problems, those are likely to be in the individual text files, and not in the game's code.
This update has completely revamped the game's text system to allow for Unicode text. This will make it possible to introduce new languages, something I had always intended for the game to have. Testing Branch and Disclaimer It's important to note that this isโฆ
