EmulationStation localization (translation)

harlleysathler

Hey guys! Just arrived here! Looking forward the translations. @heloisa, I'm Brazilian too, if I can help you with the translation, just let me know.

Is it already possible to compile ES with your translation?

Thank you all for this amazing work!

@harlleysathler Hey! It's good to meet a Brazilian. Thank you for your help, the translation is complete. @Flyinghead can tell you if it can already compile. Tks

heloisa

@flyinghead Add the missing lines and commit. Can you check if it's all right to compile? Thank you :)

@heloisa You don't have to compile ES each time you update translation. It's an external file.
For my part my ES is installed there because i use the DEV branch :

/opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation-dev

You only have to update this file when you update your translation.

/opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation-dev/locale/lang/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/

Tudo bom. Obrigado ;)

Flyinghead

Here is the compiled file: emulationstation2.mo
Put it in the subdirectory locale/lang/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES where the emulationstation executable is installed.

@darknior Ok. Tks for help me :)

heloisa

@flyinghead Thank you! I'll try now :)

Flyinghead

@heloisa I did some updates to your translation files in my fork (uppercase/lowercase changes mostly). If you ever make any update, please make sure to use my version as base for your changes.

heloisa

@flyinghead Ok! :) I translated with your French file. Tks

@heloisa Existe alguma forma de traduzir o ES apenas modificando um arquivo? Estou usando uma versão antiga em um sistema customizado para Orange PI e gostaria de colocar em PT-BR. Desde já, obrigado pelo seu trabalho.

Is there any way to translate ES by just modifying a file? I'm using an old version on a custom system for Orange PI and would like to put it on PT-BR. Thank you in advance for your work.

Flyinghead

@dhector No, it’s a bit more complex than that. You need to modify many source files, either to do a PT-only version, or a localizable version.

darknior

Possible @Flyinghead to update your fork with the last master branch updates ?
Thanks

Flyinghead

@darknior Done

@flyinghead
Thank you very much for your project and tutorial

@Flyinghead @darknior This is so bad :(
I could not apply the translation. Could you explain me step by step? Sorry

@robotechvfx

If you dive into it and need some support, Portuguese is also my main language.

I'm not a translator, but I'm available to help.

Cheers,

Yes, I'm interested! I'd like to help with an italian translation, but since im veeery newbie i don't think i might be of any use 😢

heloisa
