This *technically* might not have any typos, but...

Well looking over it there is infact no typo's in it no !

Unfortunately the intire "Greengrove Saga" was initially made for a Danish server ( not mine just one I helped a tiny wee bit build for ) and so this description is....quite....danish... *cough* .

Boss in Fogshredder Deep cave-thing has Danish description.

Just to ask again: how willing are you to fix all the problems?

The funny thing is I think fixing the spelling errors/cleaning up the intro will help more than polishing most of the level 10+ stuff. Once you get people hooked/engaged in the world, you're a lot more willing to put up with some issues, be they bugs, balance problems, or just lots of spelling errors. Have to get them hooked first.

Fixed.

As for my reply to the spelling errors - Again...

We will do whatever it takes !

This being said thanks to a huge effort of Icywind we basically allready have removed all the typo's and dialog problems in the intire intro, Castle balder area , shops, etc etc.

So the whole idea of concentrating on the start of the module is basically outdated since we allready fixed it ;)

( might still be a mistake or 2 but you can always report those here for fixing )

Just as a heads-up, I am currently working on "bulk fixing" spelling errors.

Basically, I have extracted all text from Alangara into an external txt-file, and I am spending some time each day going through another chunk of text. As I am not a native English speaker, and as there is a LOT of text, I'll probably miss some errors, but all in all, I hope that this will be a more efficient way of fixing the various errors, compared to having to come across them "at random" in the toolset or in-game.
