The power of the community #2

Within 12 hours of launching the Trucks & Trailers community translation project, 4 languages were already completed. Now 3 more hours later, we are up to 6 completed languages, and every minute some 10 more strings are translated across the mix of 20+ languages. All this was happening on Friday evening and night (at least for European participants). If anything is a clear indicator of the dedication and strength of the truck sim fan community, this must be it. Amazing!

The work is not quite done yet, even for the languages that the system reports as 100% done the review process is still under way. People can vote for the best translation if there are several competing variants, or still suggest alternatives and improvements. It is still worth it to join in and help.

http://www.trucks-and-trailers.com/localization.html

The initial list of languages entered by SCS seems to have been extended by people offering help with even more languages. However it seems that there is now also a bit a mess being created, for example we had "Turkish (Turkey)" as one of the choices, but in parallel somebody started "Turkish" sub-project, so now it's very likely that some of the effort is lost as the Turkish contributors are split into two uncooperative groups. Please concentrate just on the more-completed variant.

    Bonjour,

    En effet, j'ai participé à la traduction en Français. Et je vois qu'il y a beaucoup de monde aussi pour traduire les autres langues.
    Je suis fier d'avoir pu vous aider, mais ce n'est qu'un début je pense.
    Est-ce une phase de test ou vraiment la traduction du jeu T&T ?

    Merci beaucoup,
    Cédric ( Titou )

    Hello,

    In fact, I participated in the translation into French. And I see a lot of people also translate other languages​​.
    I am proud to have helped you, but this is just the beginning I think.
    Is this a test phase or really the translation of the game T & T?

    Thank you very much,
    Cédric (Titou)

    Why do you want us to translate to English from English? It's just Ctrl C, Ctrl V.

    This is what the one translating into American English does.

    This is American English. One thing who you can recognize it from is the shortening of worlds. Like this. Don’t, it’s and isn’t.

    In just 1 day we completed a mounth of work for FREE. I hope that saved money goes into the game:)
    Now we want to translate Euro truck simulator.
    In the future maybe you should give us more work such as making some objects or textures then sending you to choose or refine it and implement it into the game.

    You guys should not allow any new languages (only by human approval) because the idiots are adding same languages as the ones already translated, making a mess.

    Note: Go Romania :D

    Phew, think I got most to Swedish. Bet I did a bit of typos and such, though, spotted a few on a quick look-over.

    Some nice features in there, by the look of things!

    Anyway, need a break, ha! Read you later...

    I think people really don't understand the way how GetLocalization webpage works instead of some spite - they simply don't see their native language in list of translations (because finished translations are below in separate list), so they start it.

    Hi, your efforts to improve the game thank. And please, if possible, this game can translate to the Persian language! Fans of the game in Persian language is very high and also abroad. Please do! Iranian translators are high in Europe that can do it. Also, speaking of the Turkish-speaking Community are more and more are calling this game.
    Excuse me if you could not write good English with google translation I've done this. Thank you very much!

    Para los que traduzcan a español o latino, favor de usar un lenguaje no tan formal, ya que no te acerca al juego, como por ejemplo usar "has completado..." en vez de "ha completado...".
