Translating

Eero edited this page Jul 27, 2024 · 5 revisions

For a list of languages that are / aren't done, go to this issue

All you need to translate the HUD is to find the language file in the Center HUD resource folder and find the appropriate language file and translate it

I recommend forking the repo and making a pull request, but you can also contact me on Discord (eerorri) or Twitter with the translations if you don't know how to use git.

Also:

  • Keep the character encoding as UTF-16
  • Cross reference with the TF2 language files (should be in tf > resource)
  • You can ignore lines starting with // these are comments that can be ignored
  • Capitalization doesn't really matter, since TF2 Build doesn't have small characters, but still try to keep the capitalization the same
  • Any changes done to the chat_ files need a game restart to take effect
