Title: language use
Post by: Falonthas on May 22, 2006, 09:51:03 AM: ok i have been playing around with the ears and such a bit and then i see someone speaking in the lang that is mine and i have to use the ear to speak it

with the /dm [ thing

is there a default type to show just speaking elven,dwarve or such that it shows speaking in elven and not using ear of elven

does this make sense i hope

Post by: Falonthas on May 22, 2006, 09:58:41 AM: the reason im asking is that some translations come as the person talking in elven and some say talking using the ear of elven or somethign similiar

Post by: minerva on May 22, 2006, 10:09:24 AM: you can 'activate' your ear, then to speak in the desired language type:
/o L what you want to say
It will send a self tell and not spam the DM channel with your elven conversation.
ie Elven
/o L Hello Friend --> tell to you
Iracce Omealw --> what shows on screen
Hope this helps

Maybe add the ways to use the ears to the description of the ears.
