Hacking Language files for Usb Loader GX

[bovirus]

Which are the difference between version 1119 and 1120 of the language?
I didn't find any new /revised string.

The italian langauge file it's again version 1114.
I posted some days ago the version 1119 (and is the same for 1120). Please use it to update SVN.

When xFede posted his version I can merge it immediately.

New revised version of USB Loader GX italian language (r1120).

There's no updated language file between r1119 and r1120.
He didn't generated the new strings for other language files, maybe he is in the process to update few things and I guess he will do it once he completed the update batch. (just a supposition).


About the size of the buttons, it's a common size for everything, it doesn't depend on the text written on it.
The button size are made to fit the screen and looks like the real Wii menu.
We need to make the english fit the button too, it's not the button which are created to fit the english string we chose.

The prompt windows can have more text, and you can use up to 1 title line + 3 description lines (line feed is automatic).


What could be done is thinking that other language may need different words when english use the same one.
For example "both" in Italian can be masculine or feminine following the context.

In the language file there's only one "Both" possible as it's sorted alphabetically

USBGX is using a string matching system instead of a reference system. I don't think we would change that, the language file is now well integrated to change all the system.
the only thing we can do is creating slightly different strings like "Success" "Success.", so it could be "Both" "Both " in english, and it will let the translator use different translations.


I'm concerned about translators difficulty.
I'm also working on another program which need to be localized (not translated), and I need to think about all languages (though, I didn't code it with rtl languages in mind).

Thanks
It should change a little again (We will revert back to "WiiTDB" for some menus).


Anyway, today will be the release of v2.3, so if translators could update the files from their language that would be great
If the files are updated after the release it's fine too, we will upload them in the release folder. Just specify that it's for the released version.

Edit:
The release is done.

I'll add the new files to the release path.

New updated italian language (r1123)

[Cyan]

thank you.

xFede sent me Italian.lang for 1119.
I'll add missing string in his file from your file.
I think his version is better for few menus (you didn't change the errors I told on previous page. Some strings doesn't have the correct meaning).
I'll mix both files.

Though, I still have some question regarding some entry. I'll post later if I need precisions.



For T chinese 1120 :
Remember that the file must be in UTF-8 without BOM. (or ANSI as UTF-8)

I'll send all language files for v2.3 (r1123) at the same time from all active translators (only 5 )

For all translators :
If there are new string in r1124+ and you didn't release a language for v2.3, please make two version, one specific for 2.3 and one for the last beta. The files for the official releases are stored in a different folder than the beta files.

Bumping this to say that we are still waiting for the language update for the latest release USBLoaderGX v2.3
only two language files are done (r1122/1124):
French.lang
Italian.lang (main version from xFede and parts from Bovirus).
German.lang
Japanese.lang

We are still missing:
Tchinese (1120)
Portuguese pt (1119)

I won't wait for other languages, they seems not active anymore.


We changed WiiTDB references to the new website name : GameTDB.
So a lot of sentences are back to english. It will be bad to let the release version with a lot of untranslated sentences, specially the one that were translated before.

Like always, you can find your old sentences at the bottom of the language file so it's easy to restore the new changes.

We are still missing:
Japanese (1122)
German (1120)
Tchinese (1120)
Portuguese pt (1119)...

See post #987 http://gbatemp.net/t...ost__p__3940486
I uploaded German.lang for r1122 (GX 2.3 rc1) before GX 2.3 was released but it was not included in 2.3. I don't know why.

Here is the same file as before:
German.lang for r1124 (nothing changed between r1122 and r1124)

ah yes you are right, sorry I saw only the previous one.

So we are only missing two language files.
I'll update them this week even if we don't have chinese and portuguese update.

 

[pplucky]

I'll update them this week even if we don't have chinese and portuguese update.

Don't go without the portuguese .

European Portuguese translation for R1124 updated here.

There is a little problem with the german translation.

The Translation of

669 msgid "Export All Saves to EmuNand"
670 msgstr "Alle Spielstände in EmuNand exportieren"

is too long.
This moves the status of the settings "An/Aus" outside of the window or at least under the scroll bars.

Please make it shorter. Example:

669 msgid "Export All Saves to EmuNand"
670 msgstr "Export. Spielstände in EmuNand"

----
And

msgid "Use System Font"
msgstr "System Schrift benutzen"

is bit long, too.
Could be better:

msgid "Use System Font"
msgstr "Wii-Systemschriftart"

----
And

msgid "Debugger Paused Start"
msgstr "Debugger Pausierter Start"

is bit long, too.
Sorry, i don't have idea how to make it shorter because i don't understand what this setting is for.

----
And

msgid "Wiilight"
msgstr "Licht am Laufwerk"

could be nicer translated with

msgid "Wiilight"
msgstr "Wii-Laufwerkslicht"
