Savage Worlds French translation

[Vampyre]

Hello guys,

I wanted to share with you the evolution with my project of translating Hero Lab Savage Worlds into french. I will post screenshots of the advancements in the translation, to show you my progress.

Even though I have now almost two tabs translated, it's not perfect yet, and some stuff I still need to find where they are, but it's only a matter of time.

The Basics Tab



The Skills Tab



Next step : Edges.

[Vampyre]

Once again, some more values are to be translated, but the main translation is done for the edges.

[Vampyre]

The layout for the edges has been translated.


But as you can see, I still have two values that do not translate. I have no idea why that is, since the code has been translated here :

<portal
    id="edEdges"
    style="tblNormal">
    <table_dynamic
      component="Edge"
      showtemplate="edEdgePick"
      choosetemplate="edEdgeThg"
      choosesortset="Edge"
      addpick="resEdge"
      descwidth="350">
      <candidate>!Arcane.? | !hero#Arcane.?</candidate>
      <titlebar><![CDATA[
        @text = "Ajouter un Atout"
        if (hero.tagis[Hero.Creature] = 0) then
          @text &= "  -  " & hero.child[resEdge].field[resSummary].text
          endif
        ]]></titlebar>
      <headertitle><![CDATA[
        @text = "Atouts"
        if (hero.tagis[Hero.Creature] = 0) then
          @text &= "  -  " & hero.child[resEdge].field[resSummary].text
          endif
        ]]></headertitle>
      <additem><![CDATA[
        ~if we're in advancement mode, we've been frozen, so display accordingly
        if (state.iscreate = 0) then
          @text = "{text clrgrey}Ajoutez les Atouts via l'onglet Avancé"
          done
          endif

        ~get the color-highlighted "add" text
        @text = field[resAddItem].text
        ]]></additem>
      </table_dynamic>
    </portal>

and here

<portal
    id="edRewards"
    style="tblNormal">
    <table_dynamic
      component="Reward"
      showtemplate="SimpleItem"
      choosetemplate="SimpleItem"
      addpick="resHinder"
      columns="2">
      <titlebar><![CDATA[
        @text = "Ajouter une Récompense - " & hero.child[resHinder].field[resSummary].text
        ]]></titlebar>
      <headertitle><![CDATA[
        @text = "Récompenses -  " & hero.child[resHinder].field[resSummary].text
        ]]></headertitle>
      <additem><![CDATA[
        ~if we're in advancement mode, we've been frozen, so display accordingly
        if (state.iscreate = 0) then
          @text = "{text clrgrey}Ne peut pas ajouter de Récompenses après la création"
          done
          endif

        ~get the color-highlighted "add" text
        @text = field[resAddItem].text
        ]]></additem>
      </table_dynamic>
    </portal>

Surprisingly, it worked for the "Handicaps" section (hindrance)

[Mathias]

That text is being generated by:

hero.child[resEdge].field[resSummary].text

The resSummary field is in miscellaneous.str

[Vampyre]

Thank you Matthias for pointing this out. I will make sure that is translated as well

So, I kept on going today, and finished the hindrances...

[Vampyre]

Going further into the translation, I've struck the personal tab.

Translating it is easy, but I would like to change the imperial system used for the weight and height, into something that I understand (metric system).

Is that possible ?

For this kind of question you will most likely be better off asking in the Authoring Kit forum instead. Mathias monitors that forum for exactly this kind of question.

[Vampyre]

Thank you for the answer, I will check there if it is possible to make the change in the authoring kit.

As for the translation, I would say it is 75% complete. At least it fits now my needs, and I will be going further into the translation as I go, as I need it. But I'm pretty happy with the result I have.
