Translations HOWTO

[[S2]IAmRoot]

I just realized that the first screenshot has the instructions "In your Savage 2 install folder...". I think Savage 2 should be replaced with Heroes of Newerth, just to avoid any confusion.

Woops. Thanks for pointing that out; the folders look so similar. *fixed*

I Hope it can help a little.

And how much is it payed?

[[LC]Vadi]

Nothing. If you don't want to improve the game, don't do it then.

Has anyone made a "dota" translation?

[warofdefeat]

i want to join translation.
How to?

[TokPhobia]

@warofdefeat: if you want to join translating a language already in progress, just post in that thread or contact the guy responsible ( the one who started the thread ). If you want to start translating in a different language, just start a new thread with the name of the language you're translating in.

This thread contains a very good guide on translating the game, just follow the steps in the first post and if you encounter any problems post in the forums.

First of all I dont have these folders in MyDocuments\Heroes of Newerth\game\
but nvm I created them

ok, I made a copies for my language so it will be:
client_messages_pl.str
entities_pl.str
game_messages_pl.str
interface_pl.str

I edtied main.interface and added:
<instance name="language" code="pl" texture="/ui/elements/flag_pirate.tga" tooltip="Polish Testing"/>
Added file core_pl.resources

Guide me

Once you've created those folders and copied the necessary files in them, run the game. You should now see an option for Polish in the bottom right of the screen, together with the other languages.

You don't need to put them in any .zip file or anything like it. The only work you'll be doing will be in your HoN directory in My Documents.

Let me know if you see it or not. If you do, all you need to do then is open the stringtables ( .str files ) with a text editor ( I use Scite ) and start translating. If you don't, let us know so we can try helping you.

Here's the general layout:

Heroes of Newerth\game\
│ core_xx.resources
│
├───stringtables
│ client_messages_xx.str
│ entities_xx.str
│ game_messages_xx.str
│ interface_xx.str
│
└───ui

│ main.interface
│
└───elements

@nongnoobjung
As far as the language flag goes, it's the character set name, not really the language itself. It tells the engine to use the font for latin characters and for chinese characters.

[[S2]IAmRoot]

I just made some clarifications on the font/character set part. It's not the language name you put in, but the character set name (ie. cyrillic, latin, hangul_jamo, hangul_syllable, cjk).

Try language=latin,thai. If that doesn't work, I'll try asking a dev if they can enlighten me on the "language" tag.

There's a few pt-br project threads. I'd recommend checking there first. You can post your work as attachments.
