Description

« Hide

Hello everyone,

This is the new feature project that is useful for a big part group country of residents
(which population increases day by day) in Second Life.

It's the first step of the translation,so few server messages or viewer options have original language typings.
Language pack file in the archived package is called en-us.
You need to rename original en-us file to en-usa2.
And after copying this one to there,both languages will be activated.
So it'll be possible to switch beta language or original one.
I hope, this project will be developed by lots of people and we'll see in newer updates of viewer in the future.
Thank you very much,
Good works.

Good job!

... but I have some comments on how to install the translated files. I believe Turkish translation should be stored in a directory called "tr". Files in en-us should be kept as English.

For the moment, you can patch en-us/panel_preferences_general.xml to add Turkish translation into "Language" selection.

This should really be part of CT, now. Also, a lot has changed since 1.18.5.3, particularly for translations. If you're still around and active in SL, can you post an updated copy for 1.20? It's prolly languished for so long because you forgot to mark "patch attached" (I've fixed that).

Thanks for updating the flag, McCabe!

This came up in triage today as a result of the flag being set. Rob is pinging internationalization to judge what we should do next.

Hello guys:

I am fairly new to the Linden family (my 2nd month) and I'm here to manage localization. I am thrilled to have this Turkish submission. As we have not had anyone managing translations in the past, we have not been able to immediately respond to the wonderful contribution. We are in a little better shape now.
Since Vixen Heron's work is based on an older viewer, 1.18, as McCabe mentioned, we would need to clean it up to make sure it all still works. For example, in viewer 1.20, we changed the skeleton structure on some parts of the XML-- so some of his translations wouldn't actually get used properly unless we incorporate the new skeleton into Vixen's files too. Even then, it would not be all localized. So, again, it would be great if either Vixen or some other member of the Turkish community would help us with updating the translation. Would that be possible? It would be extremely useful to everyone who accesses us from Turkey, surely. Thank you in advance!

Hello again,

After a long time,i tried to update my previous translation and do some more work as fixing typing errors,
translating new strings etc.
As Danica Linden mentioned to me,i used Second_Life_1-21-5-98701_ReleaseCandidate during the work.
I saw that some of my translations can't seem in viewer like group invitations.
Not sure if i did something wrong but i'll be glad if you can tell me about my possible bugs.

Hi Vixen,
thanks for posting some updates to your previous translation.
Please give me a few days to take a look at what you have updated, to provide some information about what may be wrong with group invitations, etc., and how we can use your new patch.

Thank you very much for your contribution, in the meantime!

Thanks for your patience everyone! I have been able to implement Vixen's latest patch, as posted on 14-Nov-2008.

This will appear for the first time in the 1.23 RC0 Release Candidate.

Of course, there are always new phrases and features added to the viewer since the last point in translation. We have a new issue to track future translations-- at CT-88.

This is now part of the viewer in version 1.23.4.
Thanks Vixen.
