Translating BeamNG.Drive - Feedback Thread

I would like to contribute to the Korean translation with. by KawAL is my acquaintance and both of them were born and raised in South Korea, so there is no problem.

 

[USER = 74] @ Nadeox1 [/ USER] I am a local born in Korea and have lived in Korea all the time and currently I am in Korean translation, can you give me permission to manage it?

 

Hey there, i'm a native german and would like to contribute to the german translation.

 

Hi Admin, I would to be one of the translator in Thai language. I am Thai and currently living in Thailand and also speak English. Please reply me. Highly Appreciated!

 

Hi dear developers
Please take this message seriously and read it to the end.
This is my job for several days.

I'll start with the fact that I have a mod that translates applications in BeamNG Drive from English into Russian
And recently I found a way to implement the translation of applications in the game, just as the whole translation works in BeamNG
When I have English, applications are in English
When there is Russian, then applications are in Russian
Etc
It is very easy to do!
And this will take the game to a new level.

Here's how I did it with an example traffic application

First of all, I created a copy of the EN-US.json file and added the following lines to it:


Then, in the HTML file of the traffic application, I replaced this line:


To this line:



Then, in the RU.json file, I added the same lines, but with a translation into Russian:



And it's all, now the text in the application will change depending on the language in the game

All you need to do is add the lines to the EN-US.json file and replace these lines in the HTML and JS application files and that's it
It took me 15 minutes for one application

This is what the lines in the JS application files look like, for example, the airspeed application:


This method requires minor changes to the screens and JS files, but the result is worth it.

Still need to translate the beginning of the game where it is warned about epilepsy:

Honestly, it’s very stupid to make this warning only in English.
Imagine : if I didn’t not know English and I had epilepsy, I’d not understand your message
It took me 5 minutes





Such a translation has almost no disadvantages and has a huge number of advantages
Translators from other countries will only need to translate the lines from the EN-US.json file
The game will become international, people who were afraid to play it due to the lack of the knowledge of a language can easily start playing BeamNG Drive
I can officially declare that the Russian BeamNG Drive community likes this idea

I hope our work does not remain ignored
To make the game better, you need to add only 2 lines to the code
Thank

 

I'm korean and i can speak some koreans so i would like to join too!

 

Honorable developers, please, don't ignore this thread. We, translators, feel neglected

 

Alright, thank you for your response, please keep us updated.

I don't think anybody expects for developer team to drop everything else and start improving translation system. But it would've been great to see at least some reaction to comprehensive posts like the last by fylhtq7779. Something like "we are keeping track of this thread and your suggestions, and we are planning to sort them out, but later" (your reply actually). But we were like "do developers even read this??".

 

I fully support the words gjrfytn

 

I have a question for the forum moderators.
Since groups were disabled (or something like that, I don't really know what happened to them), the link to the translation group from the wiki (eg. Russian translation group) leads to nowhere and users who follow it cannot actually discuss the translation. I haven't found any dedicated local/national forum sections either (I'm sure they existed before), where I can start a new discussion thread.
So here is the question: what is the recommended place where I can create a new thread, where translators would discuss the translation using their native language (since we cannot do this anywhere because of forum rules)? I mean each language would have it's own thread, if there is a need for such.

 

Should I beg to get a response for every post in this thread?

 

I could help for French translation, although where I live we mostly name our car parts in english

 

Great to hear, thank you for the update!

 

(sorry for bumping) I might be able to translate most of the game to swedish since iit's my native language

 

Translations of the new lines that came with v0.20 have not been delivered to users after 4 months.

 

A question for the dev team: what does the line "we’ve polished official localization for the languages listed below" from the last update changelog actually mean? What is this "official localization" and how does it relate to the community translation project?

 

So, what the aim of community translation then (for "officially" languages)? Right now I have TOO MANY issues with that OFFICIAL translation. How can I report for SO many mistakes of it?
