Could you fix multiple grammar, spelling and punctuation mistakes in RealRTCW, please?
I already reported them as far back as 2021. You kindly accepted many of my corrections, but didn't act on many others for some unknown reason. RealRTCW is rife with multiple grammar, spelling and punctuation mistakes in its subtitles, readables, and even Steam Achievement descriptions. The new Malta hub levels are especially bad in this regard. It's jarring that all this stuff hasn't been fixed after all these years, it's certainly much easier to do so than to design a new game mode, for example.
Once again I upload both a list of my corrections and my edited text folder from z_realrtcw_localization.pk3 in the hope that you'll finally make them available in a new RealRTCW update. I provided explanations for my corrections, including links to grammar websites and dictionaries. If you disagree with any of my changes, I can elaborate on them further and justify why I made them.
I also want to ask you to add support for German umlaut letters (Ä (ä), Ö (ö), Ü (ü)), as the game contains several German words with these letters, but they are not displayed correctly. For example, this is how Deathshead's SS rank, Oberführer, looks like in the game:

As the game currently cannot render those letters, all the German words containing them are spelled incorrectly in the subtitles and notes.

Thank you for this! I'll take a look at those before moving on to the next update.
Sorry if I missed those before or didnt answered to your messages. It could be hard to keep track of everything all by myself.
Cheers!
Please add two more corrections to the list:
- cutscene6
"cs6_murphy_3" "Deathshead? Haven't our sources placed him with the secret rocket base in Peenemünde?"
I'd changed "Peenemunde" to "Peenemünde" (the correct German spelling with an umlaut: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peenem%C3%BCnde_Army_Research_Center ) before I discovered that the RTCW engine cannot display those letters. If you don't plan to add support for umlaut letters, revert my change back to "Peenemunde".
- malta_1
"col_brief12" "You will be paradropped in the nearby forest. After that you are on your own. OSA transport plane is waiting for you at the airfield."
"OSA transport plane" should be changed to "The OSA transport plane" as a plane is a countable noun which requires an article before it.
I pushed correct achievements description/names for now. Other corrections still wip.
