Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Release 3.0 seems to be coming soon.
Devs are not all agree about including the languages translations in the 3.0 package, due to the quality of some translations (eg: from what I heard, German translation needs a lot of rework).
I suggest a vote on which translation is "good enough" to be shipped with the release 3.0.
Runo, what do you think of this?

(Sorry for triple posting, but this forum is reaaallyyyy buggy!)

Apparently we do want to include translations now.
I was planning to create a poll for this on the forums, but haven got around doing that, yet.

jordi@phenomen:~$ locale
LANG=ca_AD.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="ca_AD.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

this is my locale, probably is the ca_AD problem and not ca_ES.
I accept that you not put this translation in the dolphin yet, it has to be heavily revised, it has many mistakes, but if anyone want to fix it it will be better than start from zero. I will revise it myself for a proper translation.

Confirmed, wxWidgets doen't have ca_AD, only ca_ES and ca_ES@Valencia. If I set the locale to ca_ES it loads the translation properly.

jordicoma: Do you have the locale that you are trying to use properly installed? If you do then the code will work as it is. I have tested it with many languages by now, and it works correctly.

Erm, actually writing a translation from scratch is better than proofreading a translation and at the bottom line having to write the translation from scratch as well...

Attention, an update approaches! It's either from r7438 or r19 (so that's how the revisions are now going to be? It definitely won't be confusing to keep track of it at all )

Spanish translation updated to rev 19
[attachment=5870]

Updated first post!

Please everyone, try to get your translation to 100% as soon as possible if it's not yet, and please keep it updated, because the 3.0 release is not far by now and we need to keep the languages package as good as possible.

@Glennric
Thank you, Auto translations are simply not an option
I also like the decision of bringing the dolphin-emu.pot to the translations repository, as it uses the Translations repository rev number.

@Neobrain, FRtranslator and Glennric
Well my suggestion is that we cut off the translations that are not 100% and at the newest pot for the the release. This will make them totally compatible with the release itself. For example, Hindi translation was submitted a long time ago at 1% and was never updated, we should take it out of the release, is it possible to do that. This is a discussion for another time maybe, but I think that in cases like that, I think we should even take it off permanently, after a certain time without updates if it is not complete. Maybe we should also stop accepting non finished translations, what do you guys think?

Yeah, I'd like poll(s), that could help too. There are still some details but I think we can get it pretty enough to include it in the release. Now I'll work on the Portuguese BR Translation a bit

If there is anything language related or not to help, please let me know

EDIT: I did some changes to the guide in the first post, essentially telling new translators to get the dolphin-emu.pot by checking out dolphin, because that's the only way I know we can see the POT file rev number. If anyone knows an easier way, please tell me, I've been looking for one, but I cant find anything.
Take a look and see if it's easy to understand and to do, please
I tried to make it as noob-friendly as I could.

Runo, in the first message spanish download doesn't work because I uploaded the zip file but i check the translation and quickly update my post

You have link to 5869 and my last file is 5870

Fixed.

Oh, lol. Translation is updated to r20 now...
