L10n - AKA The Giant Translation Project

[CapY]

The translations that were finished before the abuse, do we have to correct them?

No. Only registered users can submit. Anonymous users ( I assume ) were submitting bogus, but it won't be approved. Only users can approve them.

Well, how come? I'm registered and I can't submit but suggest only and that is happening since yesterday.

What about Tunisian?

[Castillo]

As for Tunisian, things are alittle more complicated. As much as I would like to cater for this community, it seems our toolchains dont have built-in support for Tunisian. It might be possible to do this eventually, but it's not a priority yet. We'll try and get Arabic finished first.

Hey guys, as some of you may have noticed, the latest nightly is available for download here: https://nightly.multitheftauto.com/mtasa-1.4-full ... 130529.exe . It includes the following languages: Arabic, Portuguese Brazillian, Simplified Chinese, Czech, Dutch, English(!), Estonian, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Latvian, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian and Spanish.

Arabic is very much in beta and at this time it works extremely poorly as a result of badly designed GUI, but is available for testing nevertheless. Even so, I request a member of the Arabic translation team with some programming experience to look over the translation as there are several errors which make it impossible to ship with final release. These can be filtered in our translate website by filtering for "Checks" and selecting Critical errors. We could really do with someone who has development experience with an Arabic background to assist us with localizing the GUI. It's a fairly big task for which I know little about, but if I don't get time and nobody can help, Arabic may have to be pushed back for MTA 1.4.1.

Some other notes

• Dutch has not been included yet because I'm missing several main menu images
  
• As with Dutch, Turkish is missing all main menu items. Please submit some localized images
  
• I noticed for Slovak, the main menu has the same strings as in English. Is this intentional?
  
• Hungarian mainmenu images need redoing. I tried fixing them but they lost a lot of quality as a result of been downscaled. It would be helpful to remake these.

I've added Georgian upon request. As for Tunisian, things are alittle more complicated.

It looks amazing, but can we still fix the mistakes? Cause I found some mistakes in slovenian MTA

Yes, submit them as suggestions for each line you think needs correcting.

Chinese Taiwan has been added. I've also granted you the ability to add translations to it.

Everyone else, i'll sort out permissions for translating next weekend.

[Mittell Buurman]

I have found bugs and spelling mistakes in the Dutch language. Translators included code commands, but the commands display as strings.

Could you post a screenshot of this? I'm not sure what you mean exactly.

[Raahim]

Where do we translate? I longed on the site, but I have no due where to start a project.

EDIT: Ah, I see. We can only do the languages which are added only.

Can you please add 'urdu'? i saw many people who spoke 'urdu'.

[jhxp]

It looks like pootle does not support Urdu language at the moment - pretty much the same issue as the one with Tunisian. Not sure how to add it.

[Raahim]

Well, Urdu and Hindi are pretty much same so i am doing it for Hindi.

[jhxp]

Okay, please do. I have set it so you can submit translations to Hindi directly now.

[Raahim]

I already did quite a few. I will work on it more, I love to help MTA anyway.

[DennisUni]

The Dutch language translation sucks really, some sentences are translated directly or just with Google translater.

We should check that a couple times more, willing to help after the exams.

[xTravax]

[CapY]

It's added already and almost completely translated.
