        Hi everyone.

        I just created a github to merge the work of Retropie and the work of Flyinghead.

        If you need a translation for ES you can use this repository : https://github.com/Mestoph/EmulationStation

        I'll merge all futures versions of ES with the work of Flyinghead.

        Thanks you Retropie, ES and Flyinghead team !

          @Mestoph Thanks reviving the i18n efforts and applying to the latest ES. However, I noticed the umlauts got lost in DE (FRench seems to be ok, but maybe other languages are affected too). For example compare the old/flyinghead with the new/Mestoph.
          Also I noticed that binaries (*.mo) and backup files (*.po~) made it into the repo.

              I know this topic is old, but I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.

              I'm trying to install the localized EmulationStation on an old Raspberry Pi model 1B board.

              However, I would like to install with Retropie version 4.3 (Debian 8 "Jessie"), because this version it runs much better on the Pi 1B model.

              I've been using the old link (https://github.com/flyinghead/EmulationStation) but to no avail

              Below are the steps I am following:

              • Note 1* Updated the file "/etc/apt/sources.list" legacy path (https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=237469)
                OK

              • Note 2** Update existing APT packages: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
                OK

              • Note 3*** Installing the following issues (rapidjson-dev)
                wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/r/rapidjson/rapidjson-dev_1.1.0+dfsg2-7.1_all.deb
                sudo dpkg -i rapidjson-dev_1.1.0+dfsg2-7.1_all.deb
                OK

              • Resolve dependencies of libraries Localized EmulationStation
                OK

              • Create a clone from GitHub: (git clone --recursive https://github.com/flyinghead/EmulationStation.git)
                OK

              • Compile Localized EmulationStation
                cd /home/pi/EmulationStation
                mkdir build
                cd build
                cmake ..
                make
                OK

              • Testing Localized EmulationStation:
                cd /home/pi/EmulationStation
                LANG=pt_BR.UTF8 ./emulationstation
                OK

              • Install Localized EmulationStation
                cd /home/pi/EmulationStation
                sudo cp ./emulationstation /opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation/
                sudo cp -r locale /opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation/
                OK

              • Run Localized EmulationStation
                Error message
                lvl0: Error - File type unknown!
                emulationstation: /home/pi/EmulationStation/es-core/src/resources/Font.cpp:17: Font::FontFace::FontFace(ResourceData&&, int): Assertion `!err' failed.
                Aborted

              Can I have any solution to successfully install localized ES in Retropie version 4.3?
