How to Translate blubVolley

Hi all

Here comes a little tutorial how to translate the game blubVolley.

1.) First you have to download the latest version of the game

2.) unzip the game and open the directory /blubVolley/data/languages/

3.) open the file blub.xml with an editor

the first two lines

Source code

1
2
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<language name="blub">

are unimportant.

4.) every langauge starts with

Source code

1
2
3
  <language name="English"> 
[...]
 

and ends with

Source code

1
</language>

between are the phrases used in the game

for a new language u have to copy the "english" langauage and add it to the end of the first translation "english".
Just replace "english" to the langauge u wanna translate to

Source code

1
  <language name="My new cool langauge"> 

and start translating the phrases eg.:

Source code

1
<phrase id="0">Cancel</phrase>

to

Source code

1
<phrase id="0">Cancel in my cool langauge</phrase>


5) Save it and start the game; in options you now can select the new langauge and test it.

6) When everything is done please post your new language (no registration is needed) so everybody over the world can use it and I can do a news with your Credit :thumbup:

If you got any problems, just post here and I'll try to help you.

Technicaly it won't be a problem, but the problem is that I don't speak polish and if I wanna create a news I only can do it in english.
Maybe I'll do the homepage multilanguage when the game is done and the gamedescription is finished :thumbup:

Thx for feedback and help! :thumbsup:

I'd like to translate the homepage too. :)

I don't think it's a big problem because news can be translated later. You can give admin rights or something like this for translators who will change the news or translators may send you a translation after the appearance of news and you'll change it by your own hands.
