Take a look in the issues section, and make sure no one else has "claimed" the localization for your language (see step 2)
-
Create a new issue with the name:
Feature Request: <Language Name> localization(there's an issue template you can use). This tells me and the others that you want to claim this language. So others won't work on it and there won't be a conflict. -
Download the
Stringtable.xmlfile to your computer. -
Search for your language name and translate the phrase next to it according to the
Originaltranslation (don't use other languages, because the translations may not be accurate and thus yours will be affected too). For example, if you want to localize for German, search for<German>and translate all the phrases. -
(Optional step) Unpbo the mod, replace the orignal
Stringtable.xmlwith your version, repack the mod folder into a new pbo and test your translation in-game. -
Once you're done, create a fork of this repository, upload the updated
Stringtable.xmlon your forked repository, and make a pull request.
Note 1: Please make sure you only modify one language in a single pull request. If you want to contribute to multiple languages, please follow the above steps for each language individually.
Note 2: Please try to keep the length of translations as close to the original text as possible. Too long/short texts may cause problems such as not fitting properly or causing other elements to move too much and fall out of place.
Note 3: Please try to submit your localization within ten days from the day that you claimed the localization, otherwise I'll close the issue to "free" that language for other contributers.
Note 4: If you can't translate a phrase, or it doesn't need translation, it is perfectly fine to leave it as is.
