FAF in different languages

[Uveso]

Since FAF adds so many new text and functions to the game, we need some work on the localization files.

If you want to help us to translate a language, please post here.

You only need to post your translation here or on pastebin.com.
I will take care of the rest. (Implementing this to the game)

it would make a lot more sense if more than one person tried to do some translating for each language.

obviously if we cant find more than one person then yeah, but if we do, we can check through the changes and only do half of the work each, ect.

so to that end, if you see someone already assigned then just contact them and uveso so you can be assigned to that language as well

.

same question

do we just replace the text within the quotation marks or create a new line underneath with a certain synthaxe?

@Phelom I've created a repo we can use : https://github.com/tatsujb/FaF-french is your github name the same?

as a matter of fact Phelom if you have any other speedup ideas I'm buyers because editing this in text editor is sounding rather long. perhaps we'll do some bulk words replace but there may yet be other ways to gain time.

@Exotic_Retard:
You are absolutly right

@Phelom:
yes, please use github!
The pastebin variant is only for people who want to translate but don't want/can't work with github etc.
It's also to show how much lines (work) is to do for the tranlation.

@tatsu:
Just replace the text inside the quotation marks (translate and overwrite the text "Map Type" with "type de carte")

Code: Select all

MAPSEL_0032="type de carte"

But you also can make a second line underneath the original like:

Code: Select all

MAPSEL_0032="Map Type"
MAPSEL_0032="type de carte"

If both lines are present, only the last line with the same key will be used in game.
(I can filter out the unessesary lines later if someone choose this way.)

In my experience translating, less than 1000 lines shouldn't take more than 6-7 hours, but the guy with 2700 lines assigned will defiietely need some help (or time).

After I'm done translating, were should I paste it / upload it?

Also, is it there a deadline? coz I'm gonna be busy this week and maybe the next.

@tatsu
I think i'll make a tool to change only the values and change similarities at once

@Exotic_Retard
+1 , especially for me .. we are not a lot which speaks tamazight in faf community, but i hope we'll get more ppl coming if we finish the translation

@Uveso
