Translation discussion

[cybersphinx]

I've seen the ticket, just haven't got round to applying it yet.

[Saberuneko]

Oh... sorry, so that means that I posted it properly?

[Olrox]

I`m translating into Arabic.

Started: 29/3/2010
End: about 1 week to 4 at most. sorry about the slow at translate

Slow? I think that's actually fast from what I usually see around

First time to update the Italian Translation it took me 2 days (about 2,400 strings to translate), thank god I had to translate only 88 strings this time (also I had to fix some faulty translations, and I'll upload the fixed it.po file as soon as possible).
Will the next release have new strings? (need to prepare psychologically man :V )

Ok, but that is an update, isn't it?
I know it's a hell of a lot to make, but yet, translating everything from nothing really should be much more painful.

I've pretty much to agree on that.

[Saberuneko]

Indeed.

Maybe. If someone changed/added strings. I try to update then asap, see the howto for the page with the updates.

Next release will merge DyDo-AI's names.txt into mp.wz. Not sure if this will affect strings.

afaik, there are otherwise no string changes.

If it should be translated, it needs to be added to po/POTFILES.in. If it is in there, the strings will already be there. It's really not much use talking about releases here, since what changes strings are patchsets, which happen between releases.

[Saberuneko]

As I told on other posts, I will be slowed down with the translations, but not stopped.
Please be patient, I will translate as I get able to.

[Emdek]

I will start translating into Slovak/Slovakia. Can be video and Intro Movie translated too?

You mean replacing voices?
I think that you can, but it would be a lot of work, especially that there is no source data for them (harder to remove current voices first without destroying sound effects).
If you mean subtitles, then yes, it now can be.

i tried but now, i have problem: i translated texts in intro movie but it not work

Yes, it not always work, but should...
Anyway, currently subtitles are not synchronized with video which sometimes makes them useless.

[Patko0770]

that´s shame. i wanted to translate game only for thoose subtitles not only for me, but too to my friends (they aren´t goog in english) to they know what is happenning in videos.
