Kaitlyn, It is not hard to do this, as we already have designed this test to allow translated instructions. Chinese presents a few issues not faced with languages using latin character sets such as fontface and UTF encoding, but a number of tests have been translated into chinese previously.
First, you need to edit the instruction strings in the GetStrings() function, near the end of TOL.pbl. You need to create a new language there, but your first step should be to simply translate the english instructions, and rename EN to CH or whatever the chinese is. Then, if you set the language to CH in the launcher, it will use those instructions and it should use a font that supports chinese characters. You might still want to hard-code a special font, but if you can make it this far, send me the script, and I will both incorporate the translations into the test battery and help you to make sure it works.
