Hello!
I have only 1 question :)
How can I edit the texts of the game?
For example how can i edit the weapon's name or the menu's text?
Can you advise to me a programm or anything else?
So, how can i make a language file for my nation? :)
(Sorry, for poor English)

Your best bet would be to contact CyberShadow and Deadcode about your intentions. It's possible they'd be too busy with other things if you asked right now, but if you're patient they should be able to find the time to explain the details to you. This IRC channel is as good a way of doing that as any:

I don't think there's an easy way of doing it unofficially right now and it would be better if you had help anyway; there's a lot of text to translate, especially if you include the documentation. There's also already at least one Hungarian in the #worms IRC channel that could be of great help. He had a mild obsession with languages last I checked. :)

You could try using Resource Hacker (http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/). Note that W:A's font may not include all the symbols used in your language, so a correct translation without modifying the font may not be possible.

Hmm, the special characters... I have an easy idea. Maybe, it wouldn't be the nicest result, but perhaps usefull. :) But our language is too special, so if I want to make a good translation, i have to make compromises...
At first look, the Resource Hacker looks too difficult for me, but of corse I will try to use it, after check the tutorials.
Can You tell me Hungarian's name from the IRC Channel, KRD? I looked around, but no idea, who is it. Maybe I know him/her, i know a lot of Hungarian players.
So... Thanks a lot for all and fast help, KRD and CyberShadow!
