Hi

If anyone can help translate this text, it will be helpful

注意 此项不填您的游戏帐号将会被当做未成年人帐号纳入仿沉迷系统

[imron]

Note: If you don't enter a value for this field, it will be assumed that you are a minor, and your game account will be subject to the anti-addiction/anti-fatigue system.

(the anti-fatigue/anti-addiction system, is a measure built into games to prevent people (especially minors) from wasting too much time playing online games).

[Shijilal]

Thanks for the Translation.

仿沉迷系统

shouldn't it be 防沉迷系统 instead?

[Shijilal]

Hi

What's the meaning of this???

Can any one please translate this for me??

[HashiriKata]

It probably means wrong id or password or something like that.

Did you try hacking into something?

[Shijilal]

No i am trying to register in a website. There i got this error??

Can you please let me know the correct translation.

[zhwj]

A 验证码 is what's known as a "captcha" in English - an image that you have to interpret in order for your submission to be accepted.

Your error box indicates that you made a mistake entering the captcha code.

[HashiriKata]

Did the site ask you to type in some numbers to see if you are a real person? If it did and you didn't do it correctly (or if you're a ghost! ), then you get that message. As a non-technical person, I'd probably translate it as "Verification Failed!"

(I see zhwj's reply now, and that is better this one of mine)

[Shijilal]

Yes its indeed is asking to enter something showing the images

I will put a screenshot of that.

if i select that then 0-10 numbers will be there as shown below in the image. What should i select there??

What should i select there???

Is that the number of particular item like sun,moon star or what??

Ca any one please help

the website address is : http://member.joyzone.com.cn/member/register/register_01.show

[vampire]

select how many sun/moon/star icons are there below, 太阳/月亮/星星 ==> sun/moon/star

[HashiriKata]

select how many sun/moon/star icons are there below, 太阳/月亮/星星 ==> sun/moon/star

Not quite! The question asks how many moons you see in the images shown. I'd say 4.

[vampire]

ommm... I mean it's a random question, whether the question is about sun or about moon or about star and the number of each kind of icon are generated randomly every time you visit that page

[Shijilal]

Ok thanks, thank you all very much.

I managed to get the registation done.

But still a long way before i can play the game.

As there are lots of issues which need to be sorted out...

Can any one please translate what is written here?????

It means you need to work out some encoding issues. The game text is in GB encoding, but it's being displayed as BIG5.

You have:

蚔牁蟀諉囮啖 衾尕綴婬彸

which is utter garbage (I'm guessing there's a ワ just before the 衾 that your computer isn't displaying).

It should read:

游戏连接失败,请于稍后再试

which means "Connection to game failed. Please try again later."

[Shijilal]

Ok thanks. I will check into the encoding issues.

Hope someone will help me in translating this too.

[zhwj]

The text is garbage. You need to resolve the encoding issue before any of it can be translated.

I'm curious, though: There's an English-language edition of CTRacer, too - any particular reason you're trying to play a version in a language you don't understand?

[davidj]

It means you need to work out some encoding issues

Work around would me more correct, as the real fault is that the web site is leaving the encoding indeterminate. That's quite a common fault for error pages and please wait pages.

Shijilal: Assuming you are using IE, you need to use View | Encoding | More, then select GB2312.

Note that, once you have the correct encoding, you can use tools like Altavista's Babelfish (there is/was a similar tool hosted in the PRC) to get a first cut translation, although the translation is more or less word for word and can be quite far from the mark.

Also, why did you photograph the screen, rather than cut and pasting the actual Chinese, or, at least, using (Windows) alt-print screen to grab a bit map?

[zhwj]

davidj, the images look like screenshots from the actual game. I've run into problems like that in the past, but I've most always given up rather than mess around trying to get it to work right.

[Shijilal]

Thanks guys for trying to get me out of this issue

the images look like screenshots from the actual game

Yes zhwj is right. Its the screenshot from the game. If i could get those text from the images i would have used babelfish.

Indian Version(English) of Ctracer is there and i used to play that. But in that the shanghai Map is not yet opened and cars are also few.So i am playing the chinese language version. Is there any English language version of chinese CTR???

how can i get the encoding issue set right in the game. I have installed chinese Simplified language too from the windows XP install CD.Anything else i need to do.??
