July 1 Update on Translation files

imcgames commented 2 hours ago

Hi guys!

We will be updating the translation files and change its file names on July 1.

Currently, the English files have ‘_en’ at the end of the file names but
we plan to change it so that the Korean files will have indicators
(maybe ‘_kor’), not the English files. Also, some files will have its
name changed as well.

We feel that this would be necessary to make better use of github with
game client such as directly using the files in github when playing the
game.

Unfortunately, we haven’t found a way to get github to retain file
history after the name change so the file’s history may not be kept
after the update.

If you do know a way to keep file history even after the name changes, let us know and we’ll be open to trying it out.

As you may know, we have renewed our website and opened our forums and we thank you for the warm responses you’ve shown us.

We hope to bring you some good news in the near future and until then,
please send us your continued support for Tree of Savior.

(And of course, the translations too )

Progress!
Thanks for letting us know :thumbsup:

like to hear that an update is coming in on this point. look like we will have to improve our web translator soon :smile:

@imchkkim: if your team likes the idea of our team (TOSBase) with the web translator,
we would appreciate it if we could get some information about the files who will be required for the whole client and the endings you will go use for the languages.
then we could prepare our web translator to work more efficient based on the newest stuff on Github.

Kind regards
Gardosen

Thank you for the heads up. :slight_smile:

I would like to see all translation files on github :slight_smile:

Thanks for the update! :wink:

thanks for the update, would like to help with translating, problem is i cant korean, only english to german, but i guess thats not likely a good idea to translate a translated version, right?

after English translation is complete (or at least readable) you can translate to German. Gardosen said that more languages will be added to ToSBase translator, so you can help the German community and more german players will come for sure ^^

we are planing that our tool is a easy to use connection to the whole Github of imcGames.

that means, every language they provide, we will support.
AND
we will also offer the possibility to add a custom language, as a custom download from our website for beta testing, and as soon as the community finished 90% of it and we tested it for crashes and bugs, we will contact @imchkkim and his team, and will ask to implement it into the full client :smile:

Kind regards

is there some way to tell how far they are by the status of the translation? Like they are done like 70% or something? I have to know because i wont start a new online game when we can possibly play in a few weeks :slight_smile:

IMC team, it appears that renaming the file itself and then using git log --follow [filepath] can retrieve the file history for a file that has been renamed. Stackoverflow supports this possibility, so you might want to test it out on a renamed file! Let me know if it works! Note that you may have to do this from the command line (github terminal if you are using windows or just a simple bash shell if you are using Mac OS/Linux/BSD/etc) instead of from the github website

Thank you for your suggestion @fullstackpancakes .
Using git follow is possible but we wanted the history to be easily viewable via github web interface for those who are not familiar with using command lines.
Fortunately, we were informed of a shell script that could possibly be a solution to this which we are trying out and I think it seems quite positive :smiley:
