Native German & Spanish speakers needed !

Postby manutoo » 26 Apr 2024, 10:31

Hello,

if you are a native German or Spanish speaker, would you mind proofreading the translation done by DeepL & Google Translate for the game ?

It shouldn't take too long as the automatic translation is of decent quality. It just requires a few fixes and to check if the terms are consistent (ie: the same word is used in the same context).

You have to check only the new sentences added for TE4 for Spanish, and added since 2 years for German.

Content :
- lang_<Lang>_NewSentences-Translated.txt : new sentences translated by DeepL (check this file)
- lang_<Lang>_NewSentences-English.txt : new sentences in English (for reference)
- ModIo_<Lang>.txt : for the Mod Management menu, also translated by DeepL (check if you can)
- lang_<Lang>.txt : current translation file, for reference

Thanks in advance if you can help..! :)

Fed1,
if you could check it today, it'd be great as I'll do a patch for the Xbox version tomorrow (Monday) to be available on the release day. :yes:

I had a look at the German translation. What struck me was the inconsistent use of informal and formal forms of address. I suppose in the context of a computer game, either is fine, but it should be used consistently.

saknl,
thanks for pointing that out !

By any chance, would you have the time and mood to fix it ? If yes, I attached the current complete German translation.
