@fickle verge All the lines that you mentioned are the lines that you said got cut into new lines. Coincidence? I guess not.

They are working on PTBR overhaul

[fickle verge]

Morning starts not with coffee, but with Project Zomboid translation...

[fickle verge]

I tried to make 'em in separate lines, but still it's no use.

Uh-huh.

That's intresting.

[frozen canopy]

Try copying the source EN to check if it works.

[fickle verge]

Yeah, it's broken.

I just copied the .txt file from GitHub.

@frozen canopy Could you check it? Does it work on your side?

[frozen canopy]

@fickle verge LMAO

[fickle verge]

Yeaaaaaaaaah, it's broken.

@proven crown

Goddamit, Pat Bren.

[frozen canopy]

It's not your fault. 😋

[fickle verge]

I know!

It's Pat Bren's fault.

[fickle verge]

btw, found a typo.

RM_1d177851-8ccf-4d00-909b-b3edf0cd3880 = "...the Japanese Empire in 1910. The Japanese occupation lasted until 1945."```
Ellipsis is missing at the end of the first line.

[stone sandal]

Howdy, @frozen canopy , @earnest osprey and @proven crown ! Are you trying to translate the maps' text? Very interesting! Can we also try it in PTBR or help with something? Thank you a lot!

[frozen canopy]

We've already done that. If there is anything we can do for you, please let us know.

[stone sandal]

For sure! Thanks! Can we do the same in PTBR? What will we need?

[frozen canopy]

This is the template for map legend

Check out your "steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid\media\ui\LootableMaps" to see the original files

Then translate and use the fonts from https://fonts.google.com/ for hassle free open licenses

Photoshop and done

If you need assistance with Photoshop, I can help. 😺

[stone sandal]

Got it and noted. We'll understand the template and do the same in PTBR soon. Thank you for the support! @frozen canopy

[frozen canopy]

Continue o bom trabalho!

[stone sandal]

ขอบคุณ

[fickle verge]

Reeeee, who made these map legends?!
Guys, be careful with the hospitality's blue "box". It's 27x27 pixels, meanwhile the other boxes are 26x27. Literally unplayable.

[frozen canopy]

Oh, no

[fickle verge]

I know, right?

[frozen canopy]

@stone sandal Just realized when I see @fickle verge that I gave you the wrong location

It should be SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid\media\textures\worldMap

[stone sandal]

Don't worry, my friend! I'll change here.

Thank you again!

[frozen canopy]

abomination

[fickle verge]

🤮

HOW CAN WE TRANSLATE IN SUCH CONDITIONS?!

[unkempt tide]

You guys have just ruined my whole game experience

[fickle verge]

Blame the devs.

[fickle verge]

I think the most difficult part of the maps legend translation is to find a decent font.

[frozen canopy]

Not for me. Google purchases fonts from the best font foundry in Thailand. 😊

[subtle cape]

Must be RJs doing

[subtle cape]

Yeah, took me way too long to find nice looking fonts

[fickle verge]

Ehhhh, I dunno why but I can't check my newly made maps legend in the game.

[earnest osprey]

It should displays if you find a map

I say this, but i didn't try myself to see if it worked lol

[fickle verge]

Yeah, I know that. But it's still in english.

[earnest osprey]

Oww

I'll check on my own new legend to see if it works

It works for me

[fickle verge]

Weird.

[earnest osprey]

Your pictures are on .PNG ?

[fickle verge]

yeah

[frozen canopy]

WHERE did you put your maps?

[fickle verge]

here

[frozen canopy]

Is there any mods that overwrite the maps? You said there's a Russian mod.

[fickle verge]

Yeah. The interesting part, even if I put my legends into this mod's folder and overwrite the old legends, but still it doesn't work.

You can check it yourself.

It has PNGs and PSDs

[frozen canopy]

file's name?

[fickle verge]

the same as in the game

[frozen canopy]

lemme check real quick

[fickle verge]

Huh

[frozen canopy]

It just works

[fickle verge]

Weird.

[frozen canopy]

put this in your mod folder

[fickle verge]

Oh wait.

I'm dumb.

I forgot to turn off the mods.

Yeah, it works now.

Thanks.

[frozen canopy]

Russian cursive is just pure nightmare.

[fickle verge]

My handwriting is pure nightmare.

[fickle verge]

Nay.

I don't know how to use GitHub, lol.

[earnest osprey]

Ayy

So someone asked for a pull request over here

[fickle verge]

Ye' I see it.

[earnest osprey]

His name is "outdead" you can ping him here he is on Discord tho

[fickle verge]

I gave this guy my discord, but he still doing all by himself.

[earnest osprey]

Dang -_-

[fickle verge]

Bah, I can ping him?

[earnest osprey]

Meh, i feel you.. These kind of people are annoying

[fickle verge]

I dunno why he doesn't want to talk with me.

And I don't really care.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[earnest osprey]

Maybe he is not satisfied with your translation and doesn't want to tell you
Anyway, just ask Daddy to not approve his request

[frozen canopy]

Are you sure it is the same person? 🤔

I mean, he might just read the instructions on the GitHub and never join this channel. It's good to have some extra hands.

It's just a minor change, and it's acceptable.

[frozen canopy]

He's a veteran modder
https://steamcommunity.com/id/outdead/myworkshopfiles/?appid=108600

So, I guess it's not the same person that asked you in Russian earlier.

[fickle verge]

Yeah, I am sure.
https://theindiestone.com/forums/index.php?/topic/54945-wrong-paintlightblue-ru-translation-in-itemname_rutxt-file/&tab=comments#comment-356249

I replied him weeks ago, gave him my discord. But still, he doesn't want to communicate.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[frozen canopy]

Ah, okay. 🙃

Communication is essential for collaboration.

[proven crown]

Anything wrong with his changes?

https://github.com/TheIndieStone/ProjectZomboidTranslations/pull/790/files

[fickle verge]

Ammo straps are the same. There's no difference between them in the game, but their name. No reason for renaming them.

And I really don't like (brackets).

His first commit, with the paints, was pretty incorrect.

I don't like the fact he doesn't communicate with me.

[proven crown]

You can just make a github account and comment on it

[fickle verge]

Why should I?

If he wants changes, he can text me anytime.

He knows my discord.

[frozen canopy]

Because you need to communicate with him via GitHub

[fickle verge]

He knows my forum account.

Bah.

[frozen canopy]

Or you want me to comment for you?

[fickle verge]

Nah, it's fine.

I have an account at GitHub.

[frozen canopy]

Just comment with your reason why it is wrong on the pull request. So, other people who do not use Discord or the webboard are aware of the situation with this pull request.

[fickle verge]

Eh, fair enough.

[frozen canopy]

I do not use the webboard. It's hard to keep following up.

Good job 🙂

[stone sandal]

Hey bro! I know how it is. Sometimes communication is really chaotic. Especially when someone doesn't want to hear the other. Just be clear. Do your part friendly. Maybe the guy is systematic and has a hard time accepting mistakes. I really hope everything goes well. You are doing a very good job for the Russian community. @fickle verge

[fickle verge]

Awww, thanks. x)

I don't think he has any hard times with accepting mistakes. The thing is, he just doing all by himself. Not asking me, not asking anybody.

Maybe he doesn't know what our little translator-community is like. And how we do the things here.

[frozen canopy]

Well, I almost decided not to join the Discord channel. I don't like Discord in general. That's why I didn't care about Discord's role earlier.

[stone sandal]

That's the point, he can be a proud person. Sometimes making a mistake is like a sharp pain. But denying help makes you a limited person. It is an opportunity to learn from others. I really hope this guy changes that position. It'll be really good for the community.

[frozen canopy]

People have different opinions, and we have to respect that. We can discuss what is good or bad for the best of the community. 😉

[stone sandal]

For sure. Sometimes is just a misunderstanding.

[frozen canopy]

I'm okay if he didn't join our discord channel. But if there is something not in his favor, he has to accept that since he did not discuss it with the current Russian translation manager, which is @fickle verge

[fickle verge]

He can just text me anytime saying "Yo, bro. I think I found a mistake."

[frozen canopy]

I'm sure he will next time 😊

[fickle verge]

Hope so

[stone sandal]

I really hope he do it.

[fickle verge]

Huh

What

I think I got banned for a second.

Weird

[frozen canopy]

banned from what?

[fickle verge]

Nah, nmv. I think it was a bug. I couldn’t write anything for some reason

[frozen canopy]

!sporfo

[bitter flower]

https://i.imgur.com/QoUChqS.mp4

[proven crown]

Well they didn't contact you, so why not contact them at the platform where they are making the contribution, which is also offering a way to discuss said contributions?
I can't be expected to just deny other people's contributions based on the language already having one other person covering it, and that everything has to go through that one person. 😛

That's kind of the point of discussions. It's better for you to discuss a contribution with a contributor than me trying to play messenger between two contributors for a language I not only cannot read but also can only say about 10 swear words in.

Oh, there was more chat below. My chat just didn't scroll down

But just for the record, adding translations from outside github is just to make it easy for people to contribute. It's not a way to shield contributors or have them not interact with Github at all.
This chat is also mainly a convenience for translators, not the de facto place where change happens. That's still Github so it only makes sense to take a conversation about a Github contribution to Github itself 😉

[earnest osprey]

I remember I already did this on an old contribution, and the contributor never answered me on Github xD I had to contact him through many different ways (TIS forum, Discord, Steam, etc...) to finally can talk to him and he said he will anyway stop contributing, so some people are kinda weird sometimes 🤔

[fickle verge]

Eh, his commit has a point. I talked with him a little bit at GitHub.

[frozen canopy]

That's the point of GitHub. Anyone can make a contribution, and let you discuss what has been changed right on the pull request.

[fickle verge]

I wish I could use GitHub. I tried to, but it's like a rocket science to me.

[proven crown]

Eh don't worry about it

Just good to check the PRs every now and then. Knowing your tag on github also allows me to just tag you when I see them

[frozen canopy]

Bro... you made map tile mods. I still have no idea how to make one.

[fickle verge]

Nah, I didn't make any tile mods. If you're talking about the retexture mod, that's Hobotok did all the job.

I was only translating. 'ya know, the usual stuff.

I make only small houses, that's my "ceiling" in modding

[frozen canopy]

If you know how to make some mods and upload them to the Steam workshop, you are good to go.

Actually, you really don't need to know how to manually git. I tried to learn git and failed.

GitHub is like download and upload file changes with some clicks of button.

You just have to learn the concept of pull, push, master, fork, branch...

I'm just an average user like you, not a programmer. I'm sure you can learn how to use it too.

[earnest osprey]

You can now do everything via Github website. It's not easy the first time you do it but then it's easy to remember and to redo it. I wish I could easily explain you how to do it. Maybe I will try to make a video to explain to you ☺️

[frozen canopy]

I just learned how to use GitHub last year to contribute to the Dota analysis website. And then use GitHub this year, since March, just for PZ. 😋

Does anyone in this channel have information, or know where to find it, on which languages are most-used in Project Zomboid?

I'd like to have an idea of which languages to prioritize for multi-lingual support in my mod.

[frozen canopy]

BIG DATA NEEDED

[earnest osprey]

You can check the "Shop" page in Steam, majority of most used languages are displayed i guess

[frozen canopy]

I would like to know too

[earnest osprey]

As far as i know the most languages i already encountered during mods translation are : FR, ES, DE, PTBR, and RU

[west yew]

As in, the 5 of 17 displayed are likely to be the most-used?

[earnest osprey]

Ah right ! I forgot the IT. These 5 and PTBR and RU too

PTBR : Portugese Brazilian
RU : Russian
ES : Spanish
DE : German
FR : French
IT : Italian
EN : English
In my opinion, these are the most popular

[west yew]

Thanks for the input!

[frozen canopy]

CN KR JP

[earnest osprey]

I barely encounter those when i translate mod, to be honest

[frozen canopy]

they usually create their own mods

[earnest osprey]

Oh true 😮 x)

[frozen canopy]

I encounter lots of Canadians who subscribe to my mods. 🤣

https://store.steampowered.com/stats/content/

[west yew]

Hm, those stats aren't PZ-specific though, so I'm not sure it can be used as a basis for determining translation priority.

[frozen canopy]

Yeah, you need to acquire the actual numbers from the devs. Which might be their trade secret.

You can only estimate by looking at the number of popular mods for each language.
But they might not be a regular player.

e.g. Korean Translation = 100,000 subs

chinese 120k

This method is feasible, I guess.

Various new tiles like baby cribs, heavy factory machinery, standing floor lamps, farm related tiles, atm machines, heavy safes, medical related tiles, and new car wash tiles.
Couldn't find these new additions on 41.72 translation Moveable files, but if i well understood, this is supposed to be update with 41.72 ? Or i am totally wrong ?

[frozen canopy]

Are you sure they are not from mods?

[earnest osprey]

It's written in the last Thursdoid

But maybe I misunderstood and it's not for 41.72 yet

[frozen canopy]

You can access to 41.72 now?

I'm still on 41.71

[earnest osprey]

No no, I mean nasKo updated Github files for 41.72 incoming. But none of this moveable have been added but they mentioned in the Thursdoid, this is supposed to be added. Unless I misunderstood

WOOP WOOP 😎 🥳 French Community is rocking hard ! I'm even mentionned 😱 😳
#blogs_n_teases message

[frozen canopy]

Génial!

amazing community

[earnest osprey]

Thank you ! I'm so glad his work is finally in the spotlight ! He deserved it so hard 🔥

[frozen canopy]

his air horn mod is cool lol

[earnest osprey]

Is this still untranslatable for you too guys ? (While fishing)

[earnest osprey]

@frozen canopy @fickle verge Maybe you can tell me if it's translatable or not for you 😮

[frozen canopy]

same here

[fickle verge]

Yep, the same.

[subtle cape]

who who who let the hardcoded string out?

[earnest osprey]

Thanks

[wet inlet]

Hey guys, I didn't realize the file for ItemName requires types - but when testing leaving the file name as Items_ still works, is this eventually going to be phased out?

[frozen canopy]

Do you want to go into more detail? I still don't get what you are trying to imply.

[earnest osprey]

I noticed that too, in the official files, the Item file is named ItemName_XX.txt but i realized that some mod are still using the previous name as Items_XX.txt and it still works in game tho. I don't know if it still have impact in game or if these lines are supposed to still work in the future or not, i guess this is what he asked. And thus, line in the file are different. Ours begin with ItemName_Base.XX = and the old ones with DisplayName_XX =

[frozen canopy]

Ah, I arrived after Build 41. I'm clueless about this.

[earnest osprey]

Yeah ^^ but i used to see a nasKo post explaining that we shouldn't use the old format anymore so @wet inlet i don't know yet if this is to be phased out or not 🤷🏻‍♀️

[wet inlet]

alright, I'll just update the EN ones and hope the rest get changed eventually

[earnest osprey]

I'll have to check for your mod if the FR files are following this format too, in that case, i'll update these too and send it back to you

[wet inlet]

Thanks!

[subtle cape]

we shouldn't be using the Items_ file anymore

[earnest osprey]

Let me know when you are done before uploading your update and i'll do the same for FR files so you could maybe update everything together 😄 Feel free to PM me

[frozen canopy]

I'll check out on the GitHub

[wet inlet]

I suck at encoding, so I try not to mess with those

[earnest osprey]

Haha x) it's ok i can do it FR files by myself and send it to you 😉

[subtle cape]

@proven crown what string governs the order of these compound strings?

EvolvedRecipeName_Base.Beer = "Poured in a Glass",
EvolvedRecipeName_Base.Beer2 = "Poured in a Cup",
EvolvedRecipeName_Base.BeerBottle = "Piwo w butelce",
EvolvedRecipeName_Base.BeerCan = "Piwo w puszce",

I'd rather have the order flipped for Polish

Or is it these ones? God knows with these compound names
Base.Beer = "Poured in a Glass",
Base.Beer2 = "Poured in a Cup",

cf4f349 update wip - geras-PL

[proven crown]

They're renamed, just not on Github yet

Just doesn't look good nor fitting ingame

if it's a Beer, just call the Item Beer in Glass or equivalent

[proven crown]

you can flip the order via
ContextMenu_EvolvedRecipe_RecipeName = "%1 %2",
ContextMenu_EvolvedRecipe_RecipeNameNew = "%1 %2 %3 %4",

Where it's %1 = Ingredient, %2 = Evolved Recipe Name, %3 = with, %4 = Spices

[subtle cape]

thanks!

doesn't seem like these are it, though

[frozen canopy]

I'll wait for GitHub updates

[earnest osprey]

Didn't new about that! Amazing, thanks

[subtle cape]

@proven crown

1. the ":" probably shouldn't be displayed with a coloured font
2. negative bonuses probably shouldn't be displayed in a green font

also IGUI_SearchMode_Vision_Effect_Weather = "Wpływ pogody",
is displayed twice, once in orange font on top, and once in green font (2nd green option), and both display different values

it would also be nice if we had dedicated strings for these coloured values, I think currently they're taken from here
Sandbox_Rarity_option1 = "Bardzo mała",
Sandbox_Rarity_option2 = "Mała",
Sandbox_Rarity_option3 = "Normalna",
Sandbox_Rarity_option4 = "Duża",
Sandbox_Rarity_option5 = "Bardzo duża",
but it's impossible to make grammar match, unfortunately

also, why is the sun/moon icon a square? xd took me a while to decipher what this is meant to represent until I noticed it moves across the sky 🙂

The foraging hint menu has some issues:

1. The window is awfully small to display longer text, and you need to scroll to see the whole text.
2. Upon scrolling down the tile overlaps the window name, and the text overlaps the "Search focus" text.

f6ed628 survival guide and stuff - geras-PL

[blazing glen]

Think this is missing under all languages including EN. Just raised a pull request on Github but would like to share with you folks here too.

[earnest osprey]

Never seen this on the craft panel 🤔

[earnest osprey]

Is this really Vanilla?

[blazing glen]

I think so, this is what I got when running with no mods

[earnest osprey]

Are you sure this is it in all languages? When I craft some food I never have seen such line

All my "adding random" lines are ok

Never tried a salad maybe I don't know, I will have to try this

[frozen canopy]

[blazing glen]

Found another similar report on Steam
https://steamcommunity.com/app/108600/discussions/6/3198119742673358369/

[earnest osprey]

Oh alright 😮

[subtle cape]

@proven crown joypad survival guide - probably shouldn't say "click"

"or click the info icon in the top left corner of the search window."

[vocal shard]

Hi guys, want to continue my work on Czech translation after a year but may I ask if there is some option in games setting to toggle translation keys that would appear next to my translated words (for context -> proper conjugation)?

[frozen canopy]

something like this?

[vocal shard]

If we think about the same thing, then yes. All I search for is setting, that would toggle something like [] characters next to the translated string with original english description in it.

[frozen canopy]

Oh, do you mean showing English text and the Czech language at the same time in the game? Not as far as I know.

[vocal shard]

Okay, seems I will have to manage it somehow with current tools. Thanks for help!

[frozen canopy]

But if you want to rearrange the translation files to look exactly the same as EN, you can try my exel method.

[vocal shard]

I will probably manage it my way. Thank you.

[frozen canopy]

Cheers!

[charred sphinx]

ItemName_EN.txt line 356: ItemName_Base.CannedPineapplesOpen = "Opened Canned Pineapple", - CannedPineapple(s)Open - In the Hungarian translate it works without (s). Is it good in other languages? It can be quickly checked in the crafting menu.

[subtle cape]

@proven crown any reason why the some movable name and item names can't share the same translation by default? it adds work to check if translations are consistent across 2 files

[frozen canopy]

The technology just isn't there yet

[proven crown]

Thanks for these

[proven crown]

and both display different values
That's because they are different values. One is the global weather effect. The other from the profession as shown in the screenshot.

[proven crown]

Can you elaborate on these/confirm if I understand, correctly?

You need separate strings for specific item rarity?

also, why is the sun/moon icon a square? xd
Stylistic choice? Or you're one of those who still believes the earth is round too, pfff

The foraging hint menu has some issues:
Plenty of other windows have that issue, too. Doesn't scale properly with bigger fonts nor with more text atm.

QA dept deserves a few slaps xd
Not really appreciative of comments like that, though, even when I know you mean no harm

[earnest osprey]

Hi @proven crown i take advantage that you are here to report this cuz i don't know if you seen it. This string is still untranslatable (fishing board). Thanks 🥰

[proven crown]

I've seen it

[earnest osprey]

Marvelous, thanks

[proven crown]

Oh forgot

The number might be a negative but the value itself provides a bonus, not a malus, hence why it's green. 😄

[earnest osprey]

Thanks for all these explanations tho, cuz i was wondering myself about this panel 😌

[subtle cape]

Separate strings for item rarity in foraging would be nice, yes.

The QA deserving slaps was a joke, ofc.

[proven crown]

Ah alright makes sense.

[subtle cape]

Tbh, I find this highly confusing that one negative value with the same name is considered a malus, and the other one, also negative with the same name, a bonus, just my 2 cents

[proven crown]

Think it makes perfect sense in the context of a profession bonus where it means that your character would be less affected by it

Thanks for the detailed feedback, put it into our Trello.
There's quite a lot of UI windows that don't scale with wordcount or wordlength, let alone the larger font options.
Hoping we can have Eris or someone else tackle this once .72 is out 🙂

[frozen canopy]

malus = debuff, right?

never heard of this word lol

[proven crown]

aye

[deft hare]

Hey guys, do you use any 3rd party tool for translating? Or just deleting and writing strings from the .txt (notepad) files?

[earnest osprey]

Heya, actually the second choice is mine. Even if one of my community's member is actually working on a translation tool 😄 WIP

[frozen canopy]

Just Notepad++ or VS Code is fine

But I use Crowdin solely for tutorial translation. There are too many formatting tags.

[deft hare]

That's wonderful! I am translating albanian, and it's been going well but deleting some long strings, then translating them, forgetting parts of the 1st half of the sentence and the grammer going to crap has really slowed down the translation

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/498830751320768513/993504850908303430/unknown.png

I have translated pretty much all short strings, and long strings are all that remain

Please let me know when the tool is ready!

[earnest osprey]

Yeah i understand, i feel you ! Hang on ! 💪🏻
I'll let you know 😄

[frozen canopy]

You can open EN side by side

like this

[earnest osprey]

Yeah, it works well

Not sure to the extent of it, but likely something that Blair is gonna tackle. Should help with this.

[subtle cape]

Nice one, thanks

[viral osprey]

Q1. How does that appear in the game?
ContextMenu_EvolvedRecipe_RecipeNameNew = "%1 %2 %3 %4",

Q2.
What does greens mean? Does it mean similar to vegetables?
ContextMenu_FoodType_Greens = "Greens",

[proven crown]

%1 = Ingredient, %2 = Evolved Recipe Name, %3 = with, %4 = Spices

Greens are veggies, yes

9e35b37 41.72 update - geras-PL

[earnest osprey]

Eeehm anyway could enlighten me with this sentence ? What's the meaning precisely ? It's a kind of joke i guess, but i don't get it
RM_a86ded15-a68e-46ad-ab8d-794f4ff03edf = "Life isn't all... Coke Floats and laughing it up."

[proven crown]

Do you mean what a Coke Float is or what the sentence means?

[fickle verge]

ain't "coke float" means ice cream and coke?

[proven crown]

yeah, a float is basically ice cream plus whatever beverage you want, and sometimes syrup etc

I'm not getting a greater meaning from the sentence, just that life is hard and isn't just "easy thing and another easy thing, both a joy to havev"

[earnest osprey]

Only Coke Floats probably i didn't know this at all

Yeah thanks for this explanation 🙂 it was a bit confusing x)

[proven crown]

if there is an elaborate joke hidden in there, I haven't found it either

You never know with them writerbois

[earnest osprey]

Haha 😂

[fickle verge]

I found translation of this line in RadioData_FR:
La vie n'est pas vraiment... pleine d'arcs-en-ciel et de papillons.

[frozen canopy]

I'm Dean and I'm goin' back to nature.
Okay so here's the deal.
You're a long way from home.
You're hungry, you're lost, you're alone.
Life isn't all... Coke Floats and laughing it up.
Find a river that's jumping with fish.
Then build a rod.
Take a stick or a branch, tie up some twine...
Like this...
And use a paperclip on the end to snag those fish.
Now if you're a smart-arse, you're saying:
"Hey Dean, where'd the paperclip come from?"
I always carry a paperclip guys, and so should you.
It's the first thing they teach in the Army.
Until next time guys.```

[fickle verge]

I think 30-ish % of VHS tapes you can find in RadioData's text file.

[frozen canopy]

It's easier to understand if you read the whole thing

so there's real world brand mentioned here 🤔

[fickle verge]

I think "coke" isn't real brand.

[frozen canopy]

it is

[proven crown]

it's also colliquial with cola

[fickle verge]

🤔🤔🤔🤔

[proven crown]

a coke float is not trademarked

and it's not the real world brand meant here

it's really just the ice cream beverage

[fickle verge]

Is Project Zomboid trademarked?

[frozen canopy]

coinage?

[proven crown]

inconsequential. It's lines commented out with /// instead of --

[frozen canopy]

Coke Floats written in capital letters is risky

[proven crown]

not really

[earnest osprey]

Haha that sounds kinda amazing. Ha ! You are right tho, cuz it's the same that the TV shows 😮 Didn't thought about it at all

[frozen canopy]

I find it's hard to understand the underlying meaning anyway. So, I might change it to anything else.

[earnest osprey]

Is RadioData editable tho ? I already noticed there is some minor errors to fix (typo essentially)

[proven crown]

Yeah it is editable, you just can't check your changes ingame

That's why we put the RadioData files on Github 😄

[earnest osprey]

Hah that's true i already checked that several times on Github i guess

[fickle verge]

I see you're in good mood today, eh?

Hello @proven crown here are the new translated strings, thank you and good work.

[earnest osprey]

I hope the map legends stuff we made is gonna be added for 41.72 🤩

[proven crown]

Yeah but not for the first unstable release

[earnest osprey]

Okay, thanks for answering 😄♥

[fickle verge]

What about translatable names? 👉🏻 👈🏻

[proven crown]

Nope

[earnest osprey]

What do you mean ? Which translatable names ? 😮

[fickle verge]

Well, not exactly translatable, but in Cyrillic.

Ivan -> Иван

[earnest osprey]

Oh alright, i guess this is "only" an issue with not latin alphabet's languages 🤔

[frozen canopy]

I still don't understand. Which string do you refer to?

[proven crown]

randomized character names

[fickle verge]

Yeah, randomized names, but in Cyrillic

[real zephyr]

It is not possible to randomize Cyrillic names in my opinion they should be left in English, even in other languages.

[frozen canopy]

The NPC mod has a random name function. The base game simply does not prioritize it.

We can still manually name our character in Cyrillic.

or not?

I can name my character with Thai alphabet

The random name feature is nice to have, but it isn't necessary

Let's wait and see how the NPC naming system will be implemented in the base game.

[real zephyr]

Yes of course you just have to wait for them to finish with the NPC code and then see what happens.

Wrong channel, bro. You need #old_techsupport

[dense bronze]

Hello guys! I'm a certified English/Spanish translator and I would like to help translate the game. Could you please grant me access in GitHub? I'm NoTeaParty there. Thank you.

[earnest osprey]

You can also contact @wide ibex in charge with Spanish translation at the moment, if i am right 🙂

[dense bronze]

Sounds good, I'll send him a private message. Thank you for your help.

[earnest osprey]

No problem 😄

[proven crown]

No access needed. Everyone can submit PRs, etc. For spanish, best to approach dito as I'd contact him to ask about the PR anyhow 🙂

[dense bronze]

Thank you!

[frozen canopy]

@dense bronze You should save the file with the CP1252 encoding

This is caused solely by encoding. 🙃

We can't compare what changed because everything changes

[glossy kindle]

I see it was edited using the online github.com editor, I believe it does respect what is defined in .gitattributes

But I don't see a charset defined for spanish TVRADIO file, could be that it made rewrite the entire thing in UTF8 probably.

I had to add one for PTBR as all of the contributors were using the online editor

[frozen canopy]

I guess GitHub default is UTF8

[glossy kindle]

https://github.com/TheIndieStone/ProjectZomboidTranslations/blob/master/.gitattributes#L34

might worth having one there for spanish as well

[glossy kindle]

.gitattributes says CP1250 for ES 🤔

[frozen canopy]

Is this the one that always causes the problem with ES? lol

[glossy kindle]

Might be, in one of my PRs it did rewrite the spanish file too if I remember correctly, even though I never touched them

Guess you can send a PR to correct that and ask daddy @proven crown to merge so everything gets the right encoding

[frozen canopy]

the file in GitHub must be wrong then

[glossy kindle]

Otherwise git will keep attempting to convert on every commit

@proven crown Sorry for bothering you, i don't know if it has been reported yet, but when we hover the mouse over crops (to see the current state) the crops' name isn't translated and isn't translatable atm

Ooh... more things to do

[quiet elm]

God damn.

I forgot about annotated map and such

Must be a lot of god damn work

[flint trench]

Hey, I had one question. What kind of songs can I add to the recorded media documents without having problems with copyright? I'd like to change the invented songs to some real songs in the language I'm translating

[proven crown]

You'd have to make sure they're not copyrighted 😄

But keep in mind that the point of a translation isn't to replace songs that are american with songs from your own language

I'd argue that for the sake of atmosphere the songs should even remain as is, and not be translated

Not understanding the words said in music isn't really a foreign concept

[flint trench]

OK, I'll do that

I'll keep it and just translate literature, that helps a lot

As I didn't find some songs of the recorded media on the internet I thought they were invented

[charred sphinx]

@proven crown There are still lines to be translated, but that's all I could do for now.

[frozen canopy]

Updated 🗺️

super default font

[real zephyr]

Hello @proven crown I found these small errors that have not been translated and are not present in the English files. They are indicated by the red arrow.

And these are the new files for the Italian translation thank you and good work.

[earnest osprey]

Is it really Vanilla ?

[fickle verge]

It is. But it's not available in the game without cheats, as far as I know.

[real zephyr]

Yep with a cheats

[earnest osprey]

Yeah so it doesn't really matter cuz it's not implemented in the game yet ^^ they will make it translatable when it'll be available i suppose

[real zephyr]

With all the recipies uncovered I don't think it's with cheats

[earnest osprey]

Blacksmith doesn't "exist" in Vanilla without cheats anyway 🤷🏻‍♀️

[real zephyr]

If you can "discover" all the recipes in the game, the menu opens up like this

[earnest osprey]

I can't discover Blacksmith recipes personnally, while i'm playing Vanilla atm

[real zephyr]

Now I'm getting doubt, let's see what nasko says

There will be no updates on this channel until everyone gets to click the flags.

xD

[charred sphinx]

🙂

[quiet elm]

Fine

[proven crown]

Can't reproduce that.
Those are the strings from Farming_FR.txt and unless you have a mod that overwrites them for whatever reason, it seems to work fine.
Am I missing something?

[earnest osprey]

Yes you can, you must not select the crops, juste hover with your mouse's cursor, let your cursor above the crops without selecting it with the red square. As if you don't intend to check the crops first, don't right or left clic on it, just let the cursors on the crops

And so it will show the English line.

[earnest osprey]

If you can't figure out or reproduce that, i could make a quick video recording to show you if you need to

[earnest osprey]

Anyone else have this situation in other languages or it's just me ? @frozen canopy @fickle verge @subtle cape maybe ?

[fickle verge]

I can check, but I’m not at home atm.

[earnest osprey]

No problem, my original message has been mentionned by nasKo if you want to see it

[subtle cape]

will have a look later

[charred sphinx]

If I move the mouse over the bed, it doesn't write anything to me. Are you pressing something?

Or does it automatically list the plant's trait only at a later stage of growth?

[fickle verge]

@earnest osprey It's fine on my end.

Weird, it's fine in french too. I think we aren't on the same page.

[charred sphinx]

Is there a setting for this or am I missing something?

[fickle verge]

I think you need a level at farming,

[frozen canopy]

How do you even make it show the info?

[fickle verge]

Just hover you mouse at a crop.

I don't really remember, what level you need for that, but I think 3rd one.

[frozen canopy]

working fine

[charred sphinx]

Then that's why I can't see it. I recently started a new game, farming is basic. Can someone watch it in Hungarian?

[frozen canopy]

Farming_Seedling is duplicated

[charred sphinx]

Hmm. That line hasn't been added to the game yet.

Yes, I removed the duplication a long time ago.

Maybe it came with the new version.

The Hungarian language is only 41.71 in game.

By removing the duplication, this error should not be present. Try removing it from your translation to see what happens.

I don't think that's the problem. The game looks for the line in the text file, regardless of how much is in it. If find it, apply it.

Unless there is a hidden character. 🙂

[earnest osprey]

That's weird, i will try this, but maybe this issue is only noticeable on multiplayer ? I was on MP server without mod when i noticed that

I will try on solo

I don't have that duplicate line either tho

[charred sphinx]

A residual mod can also cause this problem. Delete all PZ folder and mod folders and reinstall the game.

[earnest osprey]

Okay it works on a solo game, regardless this duplicated line issue, cuz even without it, it works properly. But i don't know why in Multiplayer, this has shown in English. Maybe server set with english language will display this way ?

Seedling cabbage over there

[frozen canopy]

one the modder suggests that, you can't use translation mod on the server that don't include your translation workshop id.

[earnest osprey]

Meh that's not on a modded server tho

[fickle verge]

Ah, I think I know the reason.

Does your friend play with french translation?

on the server

i mean

[charred sphinx]

Can you send me your save game?

[earnest osprey]

I don't know but his game is in French to i suppose but maybe his server settings are in english, that what i supposed causing this.

[earnest osprey]

The one with the seeds ?

[charred sphinx]

Yes

[earnest osprey]

Here it is

It's on "Builder" solo mode

[charred sphinx]

Thanks

[earnest osprey]

Si it seems that's kinda my bad and bothered daddy for nothing 😅

But i have to admit that i never lvld up enough farming on solo game to access this "hovering" option

So i find it weird showing up in english on MP server

[fickle verge]

The thing is, I planted a tomato, and when I changed the game into french, the plant still in russian, despite the game in french.

[frozen canopy]

LOL

[fickle verge]

I dunno how does it work

[earnest osprey]

Yeah so that's what i thought, his server settings might be set in english language so it displays in english even if my game is in French

That's the only way i can explain this situation

[charred sphinx]

I'm find the problem

[earnest osprey]

Then sorry nasKo, that wasn't a translation problem, i misunderstood the problem over here x)

[fickle verge]

I think he meant "I'll find a problem"

ya' know, for nasko

We need to keep nasKo busy.

[charred sphinx]

When there are duplicate rows, the game randomly selects one. May have just used line 2, which is why nothing is displayed. Thus, when someone switches to the Hungarian language, they can no longer find the 2nd line.

[earnest osprey]

I already encountered this kind of "english only showing" on a server but that was on build 40 so i forgot about this and didn't even thought it could be the case for these farming stuff, so that's my bad i should have checked on solo before asking nasKo

[frozen canopy]

uh oh... something wrong on my side

[charred sphinx]

Yes, because you deleted it while playing. If you start a new game, this phenomenon will no longer occur.

[earnest osprey]

It keeps the "language settings" in your saved game @frozen canopy , try with a new save to check if languages work properly, as Pe2h showed us it kept his russian line while switching to french

[frozen canopy]

oh, I never knew this.

thanks!

[earnest osprey]

That's what i just figured out thank to his screen and what i'm figuring out for my MP server problem (showing english)

[charred sphinx]

Problem solved.

[frozen canopy]

So, it's my fault, I didn't create a new save

[charred sphinx]

Duplicate lines are used randomly by the game. If there are no duplicate lines, then only what is there.

[frozen canopy]

that duplicated line need to be removed then

[charred sphinx]

Try to make a new crop, after you remove the duplicate row. It should work now!

[frozen canopy]

it's already work

[charred sphinx]

No need to start a new game.

[frozen canopy]

but at first I thought removing duplicated line will break the translation since I coudn't see the DE HU RO translation in game

[charred sphinx]

This will only be a problem until you harvest the crop and make a new one.

[frozen canopy]

but it's because of save lang setting as Xianah mentioned

[charred sphinx]

The point is that we figured it out. 🙂

[earnest osprey]

👍🏻

Because this duplicate line doesn't exist on my FR files and it still showing up properly so i don't think this duplicate line is the reason

[charred sphinx]

Thanks for the save files. And I could check it.

ContextMenu_Team_up = "Guard",
ContextMenu_Team_up = "Stay",
ContextMenu_Team_up = "Team up", This is also a random thing in the game.

That's what I started from.

Although, I never encountered this while playing. There is 1 line in the file, I deleted the other two a long time ago.

[frozen canopy]

well, the former translator didn't like the idea of variations. lol

[earnest osprey]

Same but isn't that supposed to be some "Emote" ? These lines changed, no ?

[charred sphinx]

Nasko wrote something a while ago that these are no longer in the game. He just didn't delete it.

[earnest osprey]

Ah ok

[frozen canopy]

So, I don't need to fix this right?

[charred sphinx]

Yes. Not need.

If Nasko is here, we'll have to ask him again if he doesn't notice.

[earnest osprey]

I already deleted these too

[charred sphinx]

I left 1 line. 🙂

[frozen canopy]

We'll removed all chat, making @charred sphinx look like he has conversation with himself 😸

[earnest osprey]

xD

[charred sphinx]

lol

Why? I don't like talking to myself. 🙂

[frozen canopy]

talk to me ✋🏼

😆

Just kidding, don't take it seriously.

[charred sphinx]

I know. 🙂

I don't write much, but I read everything regularly. 🙂

[frozen canopy]

someone has to create content 😆

I am writing this discord message to inform you that I have tested positive for COVID-19 and need to take sick leave from translation work. 
I will need to remain off work until next week to fully recover.
I apologize for any inconvenience that my absence from work may cause.

[mighty jungle]

Лучше просто зайди на выделенный с друзьями)

[earnest osprey]

No other languages than english here please ^^

[mighty jungle]

Why

[earnest osprey]

That's the rule

[fickle verge]

To defend my clients countrymen: nasKo kinda allows to speak here in foreign language, but if it's about translations.

[earnest osprey]

Oh, nvm then, didn't know it was allowed.

[fickle verge]

Nah, they are still breaking the rules. They're talking about server stuff.

.

[unkempt island]

Apologize for the bump but have you started on this?

I'd be happy to help with translating the game to Arabic if anyone had started already.

Or I might start from scratch if no one has

[fickle verge]

Hm, now I'm curious. Does PZ even support right to left languages, like Arabic?

[unkempt island]

Trying it out with a few strings but I don't think I'm using the correct charset. Tried UTF-8, Windows 1256 and 1252 (from this message #translations message)

[subtle cape]

I doubt it. PZ seems to be designed mostly for English in mind.

Not enough resources to make it RTL friendly. It's not even friendly for different genders and grammar in many other languages.

[fickle verge]

It's not even friendly for different genders and grammar in many other languages.
Ohhh, yeah. I hate that.

It's not "game breaking" but still.

[unkempt island]

Yeah it isn't that bad, though I don't think Arabic's gonna work unfortunately

I should've looked more into that before translating a few hundred strings

[fickle verge]

Eh, it's too early to give up. Maybe the devs can help you with that. @proven crown

[earnest osprey]

Crap ! Didn't thought 41.73 would come out so fast ! I have to do the little translation additions

[proven crown]

Dang dude, get well soon ❤️

[exotic coral]

so how does this channel work?

I'd like to help with brazilian portuguese translation

[proven crown]

You can reach out to @stone sandal and @glossy kindle

@tepid seal @proven crown I'm no pilot, but I think "joystick" should be "A yoke, alternatively known as a control wheel or a control column"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoke_(aeronautics)

RM_25c020e2-06a8-447a-8d85-93aa2a10e2e0 = "Push forward on your joystick to keep the plane from taking off prematurely."
RM_f57430f1-7734-4ff3-9ab1-c5ac51cee1f1 = "When sufficient speed is reached, pull back on the joystick..."

[fickle verge]

Oh, that caught me off guard at first too. But I googled a little bit and Wikipedia says joystick is fine.
"A side-stick or sidestick controller is an aircraft control column (or joystick)"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Side-stick#:~:text=A side-stick or sidestick,-by-wire control systems.

[real zephyr]

I have not seen this @proven crown sorry for the ping

[fickle verge]

I translated it as РУС (Ручка управления самолётом) and used abbreviation in the text after.

I think you call it... Drążek sterowy?

[frozen canopy]

Loraine is cited by the Oxford English Dictionary for using the term "joystick" in his diary in 1909 when he went to Pau to learn to fly at Bleriot's school.

whoah, good to learn new thing

[subtle cape]

yeah, or just "drążek"

but since it's a tutorial video, proper terminology is advised in English 🙂

[subtle cape]

"Typically this is found in aircraft that are equipped with fly-by-wire control systems."

this is the 90', though, and probably a civilian small aircraft, though, I assume

https://tenor.com/view/finished-elijah-wood-lord-of-the-rings-lava-fire-gif-5894611

btw I'm fkn done with recorded_media translation

[fickle verge]

So, uh-h, maybe it's not correct, yeah. Now I'm reading some forums about planes and I found a guy who complains about yoke.
https://www.pilotsofamerica.com/community/threads/converting-a-plane-to-stick.85464/
So I assume, small planes don't have joysticks?

[subtle cape]

i think fly-by-wire is high-tech stuff for airliners and jets

[fickle verge]

Congrats, brother.

[unkempt island]

Joystick isn't exactly wrong but in planes, "Yoke" is much more commonly used. I've never heard someone call it a joystick

[fickle verge]

btw, @subtle cape. How did you translate these two lines:

...
RM_b1f70ff9-8339-467a-aee5-b7f63f5ba56b = "Bandit at six o'clock... missile lock... evading!"```

[subtle cape]

"Sir, I'm seeing six... eight... ten enemies on radar!"

[fickle verge]

Oh, great!

But as I remember bogeys are not really enemies.

They are potential enemies

oh wait

I'm wrong

[subtle cape]

"Enemy at six... he targeted me with a missile... evading!"

[fickle verge]

Yeah, great job.

I think the worst part of the translation were baseball VHS tapes.

[subtle cape]

golf as well xd

such a stupid sport

[fickle verge]

HEY

I like golf

I've played it few times

[subtle cape]

I don't like it because it takes A LOT of space, and for some reason people need hundreds of golf courses in a city

[fickle verge]

lol

[subtle cape]

waste of space for the minority who plays it

[fickle verge]

There's only one small golf course in my town. Well, not exactly in my town, but out of it.

[subtle cape]

based on Dublin, there's a lot of these here

[fickle verge]

I've never heard someone call it a joystick
Well, the game takes place in the 90's. So maybe it was common to call like it?

[unkempt island]

Also I dug a lil more into this and found out that (correct me if I'm wrong) the game uses bitmap fonts, which Arabic cannot use. The language is different from almost all the others since the letters can connect with each other if not separated by a space. From what I understood, it would require some sort of renderer to process when these characters should be connected or not.

[unkempt island]

Yeah that makes sense

idk if they used to call it a joystick back then but if they did then that's fair

[subtle cape]

400 golf fields in Ireland for 5 million people
39 golf fields in Poland for 38 million people

xd

[fickle verge]

I bet Pat Bren's a huge golf fan.

[subtle cape]

for sure 🤣

[frozen canopy]

It's one of the few sports for older people

[subtle cape]

https://tenor.com/view/mini-golf-kid-child-over-reaction-no-goal-gif-17522073

@proven crown will we have the same kind of window for recorded_media content? I'd like to give credit to people who contributed to translation

this one is for radio and tv and general game content

You can do it yourself. I did it like this:

[subtle cape]

oh, nice, good to know!

[subtle cape]

@proven crown
seem like credits.txt doesn't support special characters
is this something that can be fixed?

this should be:
zażółć gęślą jaźń

[fickle verge]

Have you changed the codding?

[subtle cape]

yeah, it's ANSI, as it should be

[fickle verge]

huh

[subtle cape]

Russian is broken on my side as well

[fickle verge]

Weird.

[fickle verge]

I remember I had problems with the credits on my mom's MacBook.

Could you send me your credits.txt? I can check it on my side, if you want.

[subtle cape]

thanks

[fickle verge]

np, gimme a min.

[fickle verge]

Uh-h, I think something's wrong here. But it kinda works.

[subtle cape]

nah, ł ś ć are broken

in the sections bordered with -------------
should be "tłumacze"
and "zawartość"

[fickle verge]

What is your OS? Windows?

[subtle cape]

yeah, run of the mill windows 10 pc

you can see that the word "zawartość" works correctly in the UI file, since the special characters are not broken there, i.e. on top of your screenshot

@subtle cape We are having the same issue in PTBR. Special characters don't work.

[subtle cape]

I'm sure Dad will fix it 🛠️

[proven crown]

I've already uploaded that. Unless I am missing something, the files in that zip are identical to what's on Github

[fickle verge]

try this

[subtle cape]

no difference, broken

[fickle verge]

shit

[frozen canopy]

happens

[proven crown]

Encode it as UTF-8

Unless you already tried that

[proven crown]

That file can't work because it's already not displayed correctly at the mothership

as in, in the file itself

[proven crown]

same for that one

UTF-8 seems to work on my end

[fickle verge]

Ain't the first line supposed to be "Zażółć gęślą jaźń"?

The weird thing, geras says my credits.txt is broken on his end.

[proven crown]

the first line is not from the credits.txt

[proven crown]

RU? Or the PL one you submitted

[fickle verge]

Ru, yeah.

[fickle verge]

.

[fickle verge]

Uh-huh.

[stone sandal]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/888172183300489246/998719289064427560/unknown.png

[fickle verge]

...that's weird.

[proven crown]

it's broken for him because his language is still set to polish, viewing the Russian credits.

He essentially just switched the language but didn't press "apply", since the baseline text from UI_PL.txt is still visible

[stone sandal]

Same issue here.

[proven crown]

that's different and already fixed for stable

or the next patch

whichever comes first

the files were patched on Github today, might have missed it

[stone sandal]

Good to know about that. Thanks!

[proven crown]

Not really, since you're talking about the same issue geras is.

Encode it in UTF-8 and cyrillic names will be displayed

[fickle verge]

Well, it's a little bit broken.

Sывшие переводчики

[proven crown]

As for this, I'd personally rather remove the credits from the RadioData files and propagate the credits.txt exclusively. Basically just add a line/section for the radio translations in there instead of having it read from two (three) different files

Hence, you can just add people who did recorded media to the file all the same. Some other languages already do it that way.

[proven crown]

?

[fickle verge]

On this screenshot russian is kinda broken.

[proven crown]

Yeah I wouldn't be able to tell so you'd have to make me understand

😄

[fickle verge]

'ya see the first line with "Sывшие переводчики" supposed to be "Бывшие переводчики".

[proven crown]

well

that's because I literally just had notepad convert the file

if you enter it correctly it's probably gonna be displayed correctly

one sec

[fickle verge]

🤔

[fickle verge]

YEAH

Now it does work.

[proven crown]

But bless you for thinking I'd understand this

😄

I looked at that

then at the file

[fickle verge]

Silly daddy, we don't have S in Russian!

[proven crown]

and then I put the cursor next to that letter and entered an S

"these look the same to me"

Ah

Had no idea

[fickle verge]

https://tenor.com/view/themoreyouknow-more-know-gif-4483207

❤️

[subtle cape]

that'd be nice, yeah

[subtle cape]

zażółć gęślą jaźń is just an easy to memorize phrase with all PL special characters

[proven crown]

Gotta ask turbo to have the credits from the RadioData ignored, will set myself a reminder

[subtle cape]

what wizardry is this, UTF-8 always displays as broken on my side

xd

[proven crown]

maybe it doesn't work for people who are actually polish

[subtle cape]

I meant this

[proven crown]

me too

[subtle cape]

this is UTF-8 on my side

the sections in between -------- should be:
tłumacze
zawartość

[proven crown]

Can you post the file

[fickle verge]

.

[fickle verge]

ah

silly me

[proven crown]

Weird, works here.

I think

tłumacze and zawartość

[subtle cape]

https://tenor.com/view/calculating-puzzled-math-confused-confused-look-gif-14677181

[proven crown]

hahah

[subtle cape]

so, is my PC fkd or what?

[proven crown]

Ideally someone else would give it a shot too, to see if it works on their end.

Just so we can rule out that something is going ideal on my end and the borked way of your end is the expected standard

[subtle cape]

ok, asking PL buddy

broken on his side as well

but the broken characters display differently, lol

[earnest osprey]

Weirdest thing is, the latest special "broken" characters, are displayed properly in the last line (on the screen you sent) 😮

[fickle verge]

yeah, 'cause the last line isn't in credits.txt

[earnest osprey]

Ah mb then

[frozen canopy]

Encoding issue?

if I use UTF-8 for thai credits.txt, it's broken too

[fickle verge]

And if I use UTF-8 in my credits.txt it's broken too. ANSI works fine for me.

But for Daddy utf8 works fine

[frozen canopy]

Yes, I normally use UTF-8 for Thai translation

Except the credits.txt file

Maybe there is hard code that controls credits.txt encoding 🤔

[glossy kindle]

Are all translation credits file encoded as UTF-8 or they do respect their encoding as the same as its respective language directory?

[proven crown]

If they would we wouldn't be having this convo 😩

[glossy kindle]

I think I did encoded PTBR credits file as 1252 by mistake

[glossy kindle]

Actually it looks right 🤔

However, in-game there's encoding issues:

If I save with same encoding as other files:

Then it looks correct ingame:

Which means the UTF-8 rule in .gitattributes file is not getting respected because of the previous rule applied for the entire directory (???, just a guess) Looks like they're being saved as UTF-8 as expected.

Or the game is treating them as the same as other encoded files, described in language.txt

This is confusing

[earnest osprey]

🤷🏻‍♀️

[frozen canopy]

Thai language.txt = UTF-8 but Thai credits.txt = Windows-874, and that's the only file that cannot be set as UTF-8

[real zephyr]

Hello @proven crown I checked you are right everything is synchronized perfectly, this zipper instead contains the new translations. Thank you and good work.
