Suggestion > Tool for translate and generated data

Excuse for my bad english.

Maybe it's possible to create a easy tool for translate and generated data
I explain. The tool program make a column with all the text to translate (Profile, name, resume, ... and other native text) line by line...
A other column is for the translate word.

Example :
1 column with native language / 2 column with for example french translate
Profiles / Profils
Orc warriors / Guerriers Orques
Move / Mvt
WS / CC
Hand weapon / Arme à une main
Warband / Escorte
Army / Armée
Only one / Seulement un
...

When you save the translate you the possibility to generated translate data with translate note, language extension to the data name, author & contact of the translator, ...

When a new version of the native language is out, the tool program look what is possible to re-associated (Native/Translate).
 
You would probably need a table with one column for unique id, another for the name, and a third for the description text. Then you could process all the data files and swap in the appropriate new names/descriptions. Since unique ids don't change very often, you should have a pretty solid solution with this approach.

So it's possible Wolflair develop a program like this.
 
Yes, we could develop something like that. But we have lots of other things on our todo list as well, so it will be awhile before we could do it. If you or another user wanted to do something yourself, it could probably be done much sooner.
 
We're working on Army Builder 3.3 right now, but we don't have any plans to add the translation functionality to this next release. Sorry :(

Looking forward to the coming year, we have another major enhancement planned for Army Builder, with V3.4 targeted for release sometime this spring. This new release will simplify the editing of data files for everyone – even the casual player. Our goal is to go well beyond just making it easier for existing data file authors to create Army Builder data files. We want to make it straightforward for regular users to create and edit their own content, too.

Maybe this sort of tool could be enter to the "simplify the editing of data files for everyone"
 
We don't have our timeline for AB3.4 finalized yet - we'll make sure to consider this when we're deciding exactly what to include in the release. :)
 
Any news?

This type of tool could be very important for promote AB to other country and other language than english.

Simply the translation of data is important for communities.

There hasn't been any development on Army Builder for 4 years, and the LW team already have too much work to catch up on with Hero Lab. As stated by Rob years ago, if you want a translation tool you could build it yourself. This may be the only way it happens - It is extremely unlikely that LW will do something like this themselves.
