Translation proposal

[|Lorre|]

Hello!!!

I would like to make an italian translation of SV, of course with your permission.
SV it's a gorgeous mod, I wanted it to be more played among italian people, and a translation it's a good way to "conquer" people who do not like playing games in english (how sad!). In addition, playing with the full game in one language only (if you play with a stranger version, you have half game in english, and half in the other language), will be more appropriate. So I wanted to do a try, but only if you agree with that.

If I have your permission, I need some infos of what files to edit.

Probably it's best to wait for 2.1 patch to come out before doing this? Or can I start already?

Please, if you like the idea, tell me.

I'm sure SV likes this idea

You have to edit nearly all files within the SV/data/text folder.
In these files you'll find always command lines in clamps { ... } which you leave untouched, and everything behind you must translate.

Ok, you mean even the .bin ones? Or only the .txt?

This would be great! Thanks

You just need to change the txt files, M2 will recreate the bins.

Ok I will start at once!

[EDIT (Again)]

I have finished translating:

historic_events.txt
menu_english.txt (integral copy/paste )
names.txt
rebel_faction_descr.txt
SicilianVespers_Early_regions_and_settlement_names.txt
(question: is the regions' names the same in both early and late campaigns?)

I am currently work with expanded_early.txt.
Quite a work!!! But I will be stronger than that!!!!

I want to do a translation of 2.1, after seeing the huge modifications you plan to do . It seems to me a bit unuseful to make a translation of 2.0 since it will be changed in a short time, or not?

I saw the Ancillaries and Traits txt files, they are very long to translate, so tell me: in the next patch of SV, will they be changed? Because if it's so, I won't translate them (I will wait the new patch and then translate the new ones), it will be a waste of time if they have to be changed, do you agree?

Same for Units....

If you plan to change Ancillaries/Traits/Units, if you want, could you send me the new .txt files you plan to use in 2.1? (By mail or other ways), so I can work with the most updated ones. Thank you!

(If you disagree, could you please tell me what .txt files won't be changed? So I can focus on these... )

Ancillaries will not be changing, but the traits will be changed due to BB&B 2.0.

There will be a few units added, and I still need to add the Cumans for the early campaign.

I will PM you later about the rest.

imperial_campaign_regions_and_settlement_names.txt

Ahem.. yes I noticed the other file, I wanted to know if the two txts share the same names. If it is so, I simply cut and paste the one I already translated in the other. If not i will begin translating the other

Ok, I will translate Ancillaries then, and the Campaign Descriptions.

I think in 2.0 they may be the same, but I am going to change some early province and settlments for early in 2.1.

ExamDiff is a good tool to compare files:

Very good. I have finished translating Ancillaries files, now I will concentrate on Campaign Descriptions. Then I think I will wait for your instructions.
