...which is exactly my opinion as well. Anyone who wants to take the task of
learning a highly complex and technical 3D application will *also* accept
having to learn a *bit* of another language and a few words specific to that
field (and quite honestly, anyone who wants to put a 3D application to
serious use will probably already know English - as most technical people do
anyway).

But - I didn't want to question the whole translation effort in general - so
I kept quiet about that. I'm glad that you did instead ;)
