Update 25 Patchtranslation not coming today. Wanted to finish the weapon mod part, looked up their German names ingame... and had to translate all of them ingame first because half of them were utter nonsense or weird sounding stuff. :3

I just haven't seen a swwarmer being pulled from any ass. Anyway, I was going to ask about a string I'm looking for. It's when you mine something and your bags are full. It says 'morkite full' on screen. Can't find the right string to translate.
Seems like it's composed of two strings being shown at once.
tender basin
It could be

Thats the victory pose. You can hear the dwarves shout out when you try the victory poses in the wardrobe. On the final screen however, GSG decided to mute all dwarven chatter a few patches ago.
For unknown reasons
I disliked when they muted the dwarves as the screen fades to black before showing off

Any need for new translators? I would gladly do some hungarian translation for the game
shell vine
I would say you are definitely needed here !
sage tangle
Don't fret, patchnotes may be 50% of the words to translate

signal prism
Plus how active should I be? University continues on next week, so I will not be able to have all the time for it
shell vine
Make an account, you will then see the strings needing a translation, be able to submit yours, etc...
You can be as active as you can, there is no minimum requirement
This is strictly voluntary work after all
sage tangle
Be aware, that every red string which gets its first translation, (green) gets patched in with the next update
signal prism
Thanks for the help
sage tangle
So don't do
Something something how about this, ... Gosh I'm bored I can't stop thinking about fakiyo
Or it might get included
And don't hesitate to ask here.

There is no proofreader for hungarian for the moment, so it is important to vote for the best proposition when there are more than one (or downvote bad ones)
sage tangle
How come you're interested @signal prism?
signal prism
I honestly dont know
shell vine
Alright, good night everyone
signal prism
G'night mate
sage tangle
Goodnight.
boreal quest
@signal prism If you would like to team up I would gladly help out. I have been doing translation on and off because it seems that the Hungarian translations have no organisation, but I would love to at least get to a stable point with it.
signal prism
@boreal quest okay, it would certainly help
boreal quest
The Hungarian proofreader is MIA, or very inactive, as far as I can tell.
And there is no group who work together on it.
shell vine
Once you have a certain amount of translated strings on crowdin, you will be able to ask for the translator role, which opens up a private channel
sage tangle
Oh I looked up how active you'd language is yesterday. So that's you :)
sage tangle
It's getting crowded in here
wicked scroll
main reason we have regional channels. Just gotta ask Jacob for one :)
You don't even need to be a proofreader or translating for a long time to get access to it.
sage tangle
I meant that in a positive way
wicked scroll
too much capital letters anyway
short abyss
What is a "skin"
i used to recontextualize it to "recolor" and have it translate it that way
but since you get recolors and the lil' things you attach to the gun
i can't exactly call it that anymore
so what exactly is it
shell vine
Depending on the string, it can be the old skins for weapons (mesh + color as one), the new colors (I think, would need a dev to confirm) or the strings relating to the dwarves skin color
signal prism
@short abyss decoration?
Or trimming
Or tuning
But decoration fits the best here
wicked scroll
for the meshes, we use something close to frame (like for cars)
short abyss
Alright
sage tangle
@short abyss
I use skin as skin
And perk as perk 
German language, many versatile. so transform. Wow
leaden sapphire
@short abyss . remember we now have two types of "skin" due to update: framing and color sets. It might be just he fact that both were together before and now they are splitted, that's why maybe some of them have the term "skin" still kind of attached to them, meaning they give a skin to your weapon but not necessarily meaning a color, but also a new appearance
wicked scroll
There s also skin colors for the dwarves
short abyss
i want my dwarves to come in olive green please

signal prism
okay guys, started translating
but where can I check if a word is a noun or a verb?
tender basin
Good luck! And welcome to the team
signal prism
okay
damn, mission names surely pump up the word numbers
btw, can I switch the word order of rock and stone, if it sounds better in my language?
boreal quest
I don't think it would be possible to translate missions names to Hungarian. It was mentioned that if you can make it work then do it, but otherwise leave it.
signal prism
I could make it work, I am experienced in hungarian word bending
Need some creative freedom for the voicelines tho
boreal quest
Scout's Cave would be "Felderรญtล Barlangja" but you would separately translate it to "Felderรญtลรฉ" and "Barlang"
boreal quest
Not just that, put possessive is in the object, not the subject.
That is why I just stuck to translating description strings and voice lines.
boreal quest
Also, ๐ญ๐บ squad
leaden sapphire
how about you guys say something like "Barlang (Felderรญtลรฉ)"? Would it work, despite removing some epicness on it?
something like "Cave (Scout)"?
signal prism
It's not that easy, we have agglutiation
leaden sapphire
Perhaps it might please the community more (despite not being perfect) than keeping it in english
I see...
signal prism
Which means we must carefully construct the word endings
leaden sapphire
Ok then. Seems like a difficult task
signal prism
Because the suffixes work in the place of "'s" and words like that
boreal quest
With the pool of words we have for the missions it would be impossible to just stick two words together and make them legible.
leaden sapphire
In spanish I had the issue of the gender. I had to carefully choose adjectives not to have a gender termination at all
I see...then if you guys can't find any other option...then yes. Leave it in english
leaden sapphire
In any case, I can tell you that, according to the opinion on various communities, the users have preferred bad translations in their languages, than keeping them in english
Just for your info
boreal quest
The problem is that the standard for the missions are based on English, and I don't think we can just adjust that to a language.
leaden sapphire
Its difficult for all languages indeed
leaden sapphire
I can tell you that, for example, for us it was difficult because we invert names and adjectives. After complaining a bit, we got the possibility to invert those two and use them in another way
signal prism
The problem is that sometimes it's not specified that it is a verb or noun
For example pass
boreal quest
I mean hey, we don't have a proofreader, so we can just go wild.
Like a Renegade
๐
signal prism
Kek
leaden sapphire
once that was done, I chose the names with the gender I liked the most, and then adjectives with neutral gender or translating as "of the + adjective"
boreal quest
But we do have formal and informal.
leaden sapphire
Everything labeled as first name is a noun, everything labeled as lastname is an adjective. If that serves
boreal quest
Which I asked about and I was told that Mission Control addresses the dwarves formally.
signal prism
Oh
leaden sapphire
Type "firstname" and you will get a list of all adjectives, type "lastname" and you will get all the nouns
in the search bar in crowdin
leaden sapphire
And about formal/informal, remember we are dealing with mainly children. So try to be informal, but not too rude
boreal quest
You can take that job ๐
leaden sapphire
Hehe, well, I partly do translations for a living. So I'm accustomed to cyphers like this
Does it help this "firstname" and "lastname" thing to you guys? As I say, all of them follow that trend: all "firstname" are adjectives, all "lastname" are nouns
I guess the parenthesis thing could work somehow for you. For example you have "cave" and "yellow". You could write "cave (yellowness)" or "cave (yellow)"
Give it a think. If you need any help revolving around the idea on how to construct the strings let me know and I will try to help you as much as I can
boreal quest
I will just stick to the basic translation of strings at the moment.
Because even there we don't have unity, sadly.
leaden sapphire
Yeah. That's always an issue. In fact I'm about to reach 100% on spanish, but will need to go over all files slowly to check unity.
As I havent translated all of it, and it crowdfunded projects its always an issue when the product is finished
boreal quest
If we could get a group going on doing it I would love to do it more, but for a long time I was just a lonely translator with a lot of hickups.
leaden sapphire
I can feel you there
Hopefully more people can join. Have you tried advertising it in general chats, among friends and so on?
signal prism
what's the stance on beer names?
I guess all stays english
even the ones that are translatable?
sage tangle
With the old names, some people translated them
but with the introduction of all those new beers and the logos, I went with
it's a name, you dont translate names
it just sounded odd
its only in 1 place, and you hear and read the menu in english. + the logos are english
unless GSG releases the logos and some photoshop wizard changes them to german, i put everything to english
btw, Jacob, please dont forget to put in the new perk strings ๐
||and update the translation with the missing strings we collected earlier, and import everything else|| 
leaden sapphire
Exactly, as fakiyo says, since logos are in english and they wont translate the logos (as they are images...unless you can use Corel Draw, Photoshop or similar to construct the new logos, which they will for sure accept)
the names should better be left in english
sage tangle
And who said MC is formal? Somehow it reads completly informal. Some lines were translated formal, some were informal when I started.
The formal ones sounded SO OFF so I put everything to informal.
at least in german
the way MC is bitching all the time doesnt fit in german formal speak
leaden sapphire
cant imagine a german sentence right now with a joke in formal language (most likely something you will only read for old people or cynical storyboards and so, right?)
sage tangle
and welcome renegat to translating. Can you explain why translating mission name doesnt work?
in german we had to adjust adjectives with the gender of the noun, so you couldnt use <adjective> <noun> because you'd need both male and femal adjectives and recognize the nouns gender. So I did is as our french and spanish friends
<noun (secondname> of <noun of adjective>
so not dark forge but forge of darkness
that way I could use 1 type of word and keep the translation. theres a string called {firstname} {lastname} and you just have to turn it upside down to {lastname} {firstname}
leaden sapphire
Oh, nice to see that. Especially with those definitions which are extremely long. Thanks for pointing it out
I am glad to say that after some sweat...
Time to full focus on improving in-game quality!
I'm gonna rush your screen now, fakiyo, before I forget, hehe
sage tangle
Anyone knows what the string above is? TIme: Days hours minutes?
Missing string? Can't seem to find it
Seems to be english in french as well as in spanish, so I assume MISSING STRING it is? ๐ฆ
and congrats to the 100%
now im jealous. need to translate those patches >:)
leaden sapphire
Yeah, seems like it is not an included string, the time one
And thanks. You will get there, you are doing an amazing job and a very fast one as well.
Time strings tend to be in english most of the times. I assume its not a string, but a countdown script or something like that, which is in english by default and most likely wont be easily translated unless you play with it. Let's see if Jacob says something about this.
signal prism
Jeez, the whole site needs some better grouping
sage tangle
nah there's a string for time reroll for mission selection. Search for 'Mission Selection' and show invisible strings. There's one calles 00:{mm}:{ss}
So I assume the one on the Unionterminal would read {dd} {hh} {mm}
if its in there
I actually 'translated it' when I tested if invisible strings affect the translation %, and of course messed it up by putting spaces in between, which made it too long for the countdown-field on the mission terminal ๐
So I fixed and approved it, so no dumbass like me breaks it in the future :3
shell vine
How do you show invisble strings ? never found them...
wicked scroll
tender basin
If i remember correctly azerty isn't proofreader, only proofreaders and project mangers can see em
tender basin
Ahem same reason
Anyway there are many hidden strings but usually they are unused ones or just mistakes
Nothing secret
tender basin
Nop, i hope all the trustworthy translators will become proofreaders one day, i mean we're a nice team 
rain spruce
Are there useful hidden strings though? I've been looking for a string that needs its elements in reversed order.
wicked scroll
not really no, they seems to be only linked to old experimental builds for the devs
really not helpful at all
tender basin
^^ i explained
rain spruce
I'm looking for the string that shows "health full" or "morkite full" when you try to mine that resource with full bags/health.
shell vine
@rain spruce I tried to find it as well, I think it is either hidden or missing...
tender basin
Just checked isn't hidden either, probably composed of two strings, or has been removed
leaden sapphire
And this one could be the composed string (although it says "resupply", but in any case it might have a form like this):
https://crowdin.com/translate/deep-rock-galactic/77/en-es#134913
shell vine
That could definitely be it...
It might be worth asking the devs if they would consider making these strings into individual ones, as grammar in different languages does not always accept things such as 'noun + full' (we have genders, for a start)
tender basin
Yes, that's really important if what we figured out is the case
leaden sapphire
Agree. Would make sense. Hungarian translation has had issues earlier with mission names so I suspect a string like this will be hell to them as well
I have checked hidden ones and none seems related to resources
but a few {value} {unit} are available
shell vine
We need one of those to change as well, the words used for boolo caps in the inventory are too long in french, but we can't manage to identify the good one
Scratch that, there is no way to know strings are used as variables by the {value} tag, right?
leaden sapphire
Not that I know
shell vine
too bad
Oh well, we are going to have to make a list for the poor Jacob, with all our requests
leaden sapphire
The ones I can see are {distance} {unit}, {depth} {unit} and {value} {unit}
shell vine
Anyone has a couple hundred sheets of paper for that ?
leaden sapphire
But they are related to OnScreenIndicator, SupplyDropWidget and HUD_Crosshair_GrapplingGun
All other do not seem to have the appropriate two parameter format
So I think we have to ask about it for the problem to be solved faster
shell vine
More seriously, a list (common to all languages) of all the strings that are a problem for accurate translation could be a good way to go...

This page has no strings to translate and it displays in english by default. I guess nothing will be done to fix it now, but just in case it ever happens, it would help to have a template to get it translated, I believe.
And yes, confirmed that "see you in hell" translation didnt charge either in spanish

also Bismor is not translated in Mineral Trade terminal
seems like Nitra and Bismor were moved to another locations

Every time something moves the translation resets? I don't get that

Wait how did you know of me without... Knowing?
hallow remnant
I am active on the french discord and i know of lefrog, azerty and the other guys from the transaltion team
They tend to play with us often and do surveys when they need to chose between multiple choices for their translation
And your case was brought up multiple times but they never mentionned your name
hence why i knew of the only german translator but never knew his name
sage tangle
My case? Now I'mcurious. Brought up? :O
hallow remnant
The fact that you were alone and that sometimes the pile of work was just too much for one guy
The other known case was about another guy vomiting google translation for a while doubling the amount of work for everyone
Thankfully he is gone now
sage tangle
Hahaha yes the chicken guy .
Ah it's half as bad now, on ingame texts I'm at 100% for German now, only 3 old patchnotes missing I'll do on the way.
And I asked a handful of German friends to switch their language ingame to German and send me screenshots and stuff for overseen issues and so, so I get all the old previous work before my time reviewed.
Helps having many eyes looking over it. Keeping it up to date will be no problem now. The only open issues are actually minor, aside from old translations which I change directly when I'm ingame.
In hindsight it's quite fun being the only one:3
And yeh azerty got me into it :3 thanks to their help here

Ah yes. I'd love to have more people going over it seriously. I mean my friends help out with their ingame proofreading and giving opinions on naming issues, but from their Feedback I have the impression either
A) German translation is perfect - unlikely
B) im my own worst critic
hallow remnant
I wonder if the devs could run an annoncement via the update board in game like
having a flashy like annoncement asking for volonteers translators
(ofc with a no google trad policy)
sage tangle
Yes I've been thinking about this as well
hallow remnant
Well you have more reach then me for this kind of request
sage tangle
I'm just in the fear of attracting trolls / chaos when hundreds of people suddenly change translations I haven't proofread yet
hallow remnant
Just as any recruitement there should be tests to validate their capacity
sage tangle
Well. Everybody can just log into crowdin
hallow remnant
As for trolls i would be surprised to find some doing that i mean granted anything can happen hence why it's better to be safe than sorry
But why trolling a game i mean they bought it
hallow remnant
Ingame you would get people who bought the game but have yet to join discord
sage tangle
PSA: deep rock galactic is looking for translating dwarves bringing the game to their native language. Apply in our community discord
hallow remnant
Something like that but on the update board when the game start
sage tangle
Most useful imo:
- Opinions / active translator(s)
- lots of translation updates in hotfixes. Helped me a lot in the last patching. Thanks again Jacob / GSG
For some reason you see a lot of faults way better ingame/ some stuff only gets wrong once it is ingame
sage tangle
I hope the probably coming anniversary 2 update includes translations again
Hint Jacob
hallow remnant
I want custom armors and dwarfettes for the anniversary
kidding maybe in the future
sage tangle
I want all translated strings in the game, and the new ones in crowdin, and an update every or every other hotfix
Still need to make the list from last week with screensh
small kernel
Hi guys I want to try translate the game how can I do this? It's only for corwdin website?
short abyss
yes
small kernel
okay thanks for information
sage tangle
@small kernel For which language do you want to help?
Yes, translation is open for anyone on crowdin
small kernel
I want to help Turkish language translate
sage tangle
Yes, turkish is at 74% translation at the moment, a turkish girl asked about it back in january, as according to her the turkish translation was lackluster...
Just login with a new / existing account (google etc) and get going. I'm not sure if there is a proofreader at the moment
(You don't need a proofreader to translate though)
Questions how it works, can we help you get started?
small kernel
Oh yeah I knew it I will try for translate thanks for information ๐
hallow remnant
Try to also join the turkish discord maybe they can also help you proofread or signal any error they find
And maybe the other turkish translators are here too
small kernel
I think there's one person yes I will contact with him
sage tangle
If there's nobody else active do tell us. Sometimes good to know who's working on what, as you can't really see between discord / crowdin, as they might not be active here
Personally I feel if you translate, you should be active here, even on your own.
Work today is SO slow I'm translating from work now <_<
Gotta approve those very old strings. Sorted unapproved, oldest first
small kernel
Okay If I know, I will tell. I go online every day or in my free times
stone trench
yo how can someone become a proofreader?
sage tangle
Be very active and translate a lot to 'qualify'
Jacob may descent from the heavens like the bulk-fairy and bless you with role proofreader
You're the only one for your language right now? Does the current proofreader, assuming you have one, react?
small kernel
I've translated almost 100 strings, I was wondering about this too thanks for answer
stone trench
no one did any translating in a few months and idk if there is a proofreader atm.
sage tangle
@small kernel 100 strings for a day is a good start, but not that much.
I think it's time active translating versus translated something something magic jacob
slim verge
To be fair, I got proofreading because only Mist and I were active for the translation and we needed it to actually put our work into the game. So if you're active enough and need to get proofreading to have some real work done, Jacob will probably bless you if you ask nicely and stick to your gun afterward.
limber yarrow
What happened? I got like 6 emails with "your role was changed" xD
sage tangle
Mhhhhhhh okay I guessed so. May have been me
@solid bough can you check my crowdin rights? I think I may be allowed to give proofreader rights myself or something
Guess you may have upgraded me to more than just proofreader
small kernel
I still continue to translate from yesterday this is good.. I think I'm only active on turkish translate
vale geode
@sage tangle hey. if you re proofreader you can give rights to the other people.
sage tangle
Ohh that's Desired? Strange. Okay then everything is fine
vale geode
you re the only active german translator now ?
sage tangle
Yes
vale geode
Disasterday - Disasterday#2193 - i guess he isnt active anymore
sage tangle
Yes
vale geode
want me add your name instead of him?
sage tangle
Yes
vale geode
sure
sage tangle
Is the string list in pinned messages still up to date?
vale geode
not sure, i haven't been able to play the game for a long time. you can try to update and take it over if you re interested
when did u got proofreader rights btw?
sage tangle
A month ago or so?
Starter just before Xmas, proofreader since... Uhm early mid January?
vale geode
i see. i asked bcuz i was giving proofreader rights in single language only. but you re promoted to a general proofreader. you can even remove others contribution with it, so be careful what u click ๐
sage tangle
Yes that's why I wondered
vale geode
yeah its dangerous ๐
sage tangle
Wait that's why I got proofreader in the first place to unapprove the old...lackluster translations in german
shell vine
Maybe Jacob did not know of the different proofreader roles available?
vale geode
p means proofreader in single language
yeah seems so
i see many new proofreaders now
giving proofreader rights to random ppl is dangerous imo. soem1 can delete everything in a minute and hard to recover after that
sage tangle
There's only 10
vale geode
3-4 new ones
you cant see single language proofreaders
you can only see general ones
sage tangle
Weird system crowdin
shell vine
I'm kinda new to the translation side of the game, but what is the time span for these 'arrivals' ?
sage tangle
Person X is proofreader and translated to polish. Last activity 5 months ago
vale geode
Weird system crowdin
@sage tangle indeed. i talked with crowding devs before, they want it this way. right now proofreader is a admin role instead of proofreading
small kernel
I think it's dangerous for new beginners for proofreaders
sage tangle
But I do want (and need) proofreading
vale geode
I think it's dangerous for new beginners for proofreaders
@small kernel yeah thats why i was giving rights to only long active users.
sage tangle
Couldn't have worked without unapproving old stuff
vale geode
But I do want (and need) proofreading
@sage tangle i wasnt talking bout you in personal. but you could have rights in german without promote anywa.
sage tangle
So either I can't change old wrong approved translations
Or I'm in a proofreader admin role?
sage tangle
Are the crowdin DEVs morons? ๐ค
vale geode
yeah exactly
they think like proofreading > translating. but they just doing different thing
sage tangle
I mean I've been doing both
vale geode
yeah we all do, but being admin is different role
I can confirm, I am still a translator, but I have proofreader rights only on Italian translations. Fakiyo is a project proofreader this means he has pr rights on everything in the project
@tender basin yeah i remember i gave you right for a single language
tender basin
sage tangle
Yeh don't need those. I'm humbled
I was wondering earlier when I looked into other languages about some stuff I saw
Well I did ping Jacob. I'll ask him again Monday when he's in working hours .
vale geode
@solid bough yeah, and he should give proofreader rights for a single language only. and not promote ppl to project proofreader role.
just in case
small kernel
is proofreader as admin?
shell vine
I'm interrupting this conversion for a quick shoutout to @leaden sapphire for opening the spanish wiki ! ๐ฅณ ๐
(but don't tell anyone)
sage tangle
we just have a new guy who wanted to add
and a curious girl earlier who foudn the existing translation lackluster or smth ๐ฎ
vale geode
yeah talked to him, thx
sage tangle
But didn't want to contribute
small kernel
now I'm new beginner for turkish translation
sage tangle
Okay just to be sure, a way to check I didn't remove someones rights by accident when I checked what that button did? :D
I did adjust back to original afaik, it being just a checkbox
small kernel
and I hope I will do it all I'm trusting myself, I will translate more at this time
vale geode
crowdin ui is pretty bad if u ask me, i dont think we can see that
sage tangle
Yep. I like the performance and the functionality on strings and filter. But UI and user guidance is shit ๐
vale geode
indeed
sage tangle
So what now?
small kernel
how's it going fakiyo?
sage tangle
I still have the 3 last patchnotes here which turn me off
sage tangle
yes that was my point as well.
but I need those 100% <_<
and the missing patchnotes are the biggest ones, so U25,26,27
vale geode
auto translate em.
sage tangle
never
vale geode
i just did like that till some1 translate em. but no1 would ๐
shell vine
VADE RETRO GOOGLEAS
sage tangle
and yes i agree, but when you're up with translation WHEN the patch hits, it gets read
small kernel
you can translate it one by one and make meaningful sentences by looking at the meaning
vale geode
they were gonna implement better system for patch notes. but seems they havent changed anything. when translations in the game patchnotes are already outdated.
shell vine
They gave us two days on u28 to translate the new content (patch note included), so it could be in-game on day 1
vale geode
oh great
then its ok to translate new ones :p some1 would actually read them in the game ๐
sage tangle
Aim is to get jacob as anxious as we are for new translations, so he gets one of the devs to actually include them
the multiple updates during the patch were really helpful
shell vine
Although the holidays there have foiled all of our plans
sage tangle
now that the game ingame texts are 100% I'm actually missing it
shell vine
You could help there...
https://deeprockgalactic.gamepedia.com/Deep_Rock_Galactic_Wiki/de
small kernel
are you translating game's patch notes? It will be hard
sage tangle
i already did. but 3 are missing.
And french guys are 100%
so now you have to do yours ๐
shell vine
We did it in a bit of a rush before the last update, but yeah, we have all of them
solid bough
@sage tangle did you change someones role on crowdin?
leaden sapphire
@shell vine is it up already? How do you know? Was told it could take days hehe. Thanks a lot for calling out for it. Hope it helps more players get in closer touch with the game. French version will be soon ready btw, you are also doing a great job
shell vine
After the battle !
(for Jacob)
@leaden sapphire Yeah, the wiki offered me a prompt around 40min ago that the spanish version was up for editing
vale geode
@solid bough nothing happened. btw you better give proofreader rights in single language next time, incase some random guy delete whole translation efforts ๐
sage tangle
@solid bough not that I know of, no. I checked what the hell the button was for, and returned it to normal on one of the guys ๐
leaden sapphire
@shell vine nice, thanks for letting me know. No access to computer this weekend
sage tangle
(Translator > Proofreader > Translator)
shell vine
8 pages left, and I'll ask for the creation of the french one (finished accessories today, + overclocks and perks)
leaden sapphire
Nice! See? Your turn soon
vale geode
@solid bough do it like this, instead giving new ppl project proofreader rights. so they dont manage whole project. as you can see, this guy is a proofreader in single language. proofreader role = admin in crwodin.
solid bough
@sage tangle people get e-mails when that happens. Someone just asked me what was up with that. ๐
shell vine
Some page are soooooooooooo long (but the upside is it allows me to check almost all of the games strings, so we are really getting our harmonization on the french version)
sage tangle
Whoops ๐ Yes afaik I was like 'what does this do? Huh' and put it back
leaden sapphire
@shell vine exactly that
I hace rechecked lots of stuff thanks to it
And as I can see you survived to accessories lol
small kernel
@vale geode so how to be translator person? For this I think required be active and translate many strings
vale geode
you dont need anything to translate.
but proofreader roles should go to long time translators.
do you mean translator role in discord?
small kernel
I knew it just wondering Community Translator and single language role in discord
vale geode
oh that one yeah, i think you need to talk with jacob for that
no idea how to get it nowadays.
small kernel
do I have to talk privately or in here? Thanks for answers
sage tangle
Maybe hell give you discord admin rights
vale geode
here or direct message, but translate more stuff before that imo
small kernel
hahaha no thanks ๐

is this girl still continue for translate?
vale geode
well if the problem is lacking translation she is right. i stopped translating many patches ago. but if shes talking bout quality of translating, she has no idea what shes talking bout. i perfected it in months, spent more time than any other translator in this project. i tested every word possible in the game. and i say it was near perfect
sage tangle
see theres the problem. Y U no give importance?

@gray arrow era#8957 is who you need to talk to about translation, seems like he's back now

sage tangle
@vale geode so now back to playing and translating? 1.0 is gonna happen soon
Vasquez is active and needs help and guidance
small kernel
we are talked before he gave me some guidance and I will do this
tender basin
short abyss
define "soon"
vale geode
@vale geode so now back to playing and translating? 1.0 is gonna happen soon
@sage tangle i dont think i can translate stuff without playing the game. otherwise it wouldn't be better than some random auto translate. sadly, i dont have time to play the game right now. but who knows, may be i play again sometime. seems lots of new stuff implemented and all look fun.
till then i will try to help translators as much as i can.
slim verge
I dunno if it's because of the discussion but I think mist and I were "downgraded" from the admin in crowdin rank apparently because we do not appear as general proofereaders now ๐
Well, we never noticed anyway so it's not like it's going to affect us xD
But crowdin is definitly a weird work space...
sage tangle
what?
slim verge
Just saying we were in the general proofreading list and now we're not ^^
but might have been months since it changed
or maybe it's just me being high as hell because I'm tired
don't mind my babbling.
vale geode
@slim verge i demoted some inactive (6months or more) proofreaders months ago. but they still had their single language proofreader rights.
sage tangle
there are quite some inactive proofreaders...
sage tangle
delete era
slim verge
there's a lot of them yeah
same with translators
@vale geode yeah, tbh I don't care if we were "downgraded" since we were just touching our own language anyway
@vale geode it might just be me remembering it wrong too but that's because I'm tired
vale geode
yeah that was the point.
slim verge
if I ever had more, i never noticed it xD
sage tangle
so wait era and me have the same role now?
slim verge
I feel like I've been expressing myself very badly, it was not a complaint at all
sage tangle
ser pounce its okay, we're used to your constant bitching here
vale geode
btw fakiye i was still casually managing translation efforts, never stopped. i try to fix problem when soem1 dm or ping me.
thats why i havent deleted myself ๐
but need to pass the flag to soem1 else ofc.
so wait era and me have the same role now?
@sage tangle yeah
you re still a single language proofreader
@slim verge
but not sure if you ever got project proofreader rights.
dont remember
but if u were inactive for more than 6 months, i might have demoted you at some point.
slim verge
@sage tangle y u so mean ? ๐ข
nah, I never was inactive for more than a few weeks at max
I might have just remembered it wrong

small kernel
when are these translations added to the game? and if more than one person has translated, which one is added?
slim verge
@sage tangle should have been "go back to your baguette" instead
@small kernel with the next updates/hotfix most of the time.
If more than one person has translated, then it's the one who got proofread/with the most upvotes
sage tangle
or if both have the same amount of upvotes, the newer one
so
newer < more upvotes < proofread
small kernel
oh okay I understood thanks
sage tangle
anyone knows if the LIMITED under time exclusive vanity items in the wardrobe is a (missing) string?

how can we find strings? I can't find on the crowdin site
sage tangle
yes that's the point ๐
small kernel
I'm asking because I don't know very well, I'm sorry

Every string has its internal location, on crowdin it's mentioned as context. By searching context you can find strings from certain ui windows, terminals, events and so on @small kernel

actually devs were adding missing strings without eras list recently
Idk how's that list useful tbh

Well I reported it earlier, Jacob asked for details. So heres details ๐
And that list is useful so I can recheck it after the next patch what's missing, and others can compare in between different languages. F.I. that Chapter description for Unionchapter can be too long

"Kill (3) Dreadnaughts" is translated before but not translated to turkish, its still in english word. Same word in mission selection map and drop pod screen
I think there are more sentences that have been translated into Turkish but remained in English @sage tangle
Already translated but its still english ingame
sage tangle
What the hell
small kernel
that's weird
sage tangle
Did anyone notice, half of the strings are called DreadnAUght and the other DreadnOUght?
Filter for Dreadna - 44 strings
Filter for Dreadno - 29 strings
What is the correct way to write it?
sage tangle
@leaden sapphire you're doing awesome stuff too. I don't think anyone working on the translation here underestimates the work required by everyone involved.
leaden sapphire
Well, apparently you do, although I don't care about that. Three times I've written and posted strings which are still in English to be added to your list, and three times you have ignored me, taken your own screenshots to display the same issue and continue posting your stuff.
So I think I will simply stop doing QA myself since devs listen to you and translators/proofreaders listen to you as well. Not worth wasting my time if all from my side is ignored. Good luck with it.
sage tangle
Until now I didn't keep track of an accumulated list, I just typed down what came to mind, for sure I wasn't ignoring your stuff.
I just had 'Make the details list Jacob asked for' on my postit here and because I was too lazy to scroll and search through the whole channel I made the shots I remembered quickly myself.
If I missed out on stuff it's because I didn't remember and didn't scroll through all the chat, but just my last post above.
For sure nobody want's to look down on your contribution nor work required, nor do I claim to be the sole contributor. That's team effort here.
And sure as hell nobody want's you to leave the spanish translation to rot. Imo we need every person here.
An accumulated list is just to make Jacobs life easier to pass our stuff here on. I'm sorry if you feel I - how do you say that in english? Earned the praise for work done by you? I didn't notice anyone looking down on you for your work ๐ค
Sure as hell none of the guys I had contact with here, mainly french team, would want any of the other translators to fall out nor feel left behind.
If I may have gotten more attention, it may be because I'm a more talkative person and keep bugging more in chat until I get a reaction, as Jacob may confirm.
Jacob gib roodmop now
@leaden sapphire did I overlook stuff which belongs on the list?
slim verge
@leaden sapphire I understand how you feel but I don't believe there is any malicious intent behind that. It's true tho that devs and mods have their "favorite" players (if you can say so).
Common quality among these are "high social skills"
which, personally, I'm terribly lacking at.
that's probably why I don't bother too much with the strings that goes unnoticed.
sage tangle
I added some points to the list yesterday, apparently prevent latejoin doesn't get included in options and ESC menu.
Does anyone know what happens when the string gets a tad longer?
Because I either keep the phrase 'latejoin' or I have to add, lit:
Prevent characterduplication for latejoiners
Verhindere charakterduplikation fรผr Nachzรผgler
I just saw french added breaks to it. Sneaky. Should have checked ingame. Does it work?
Anyone can provide a screenshot quickly?
Does that work on any menu? ๐ค
Where does it work, where does it not work?
Also one time you made it short, one time really long with breaks?
small kernel
"latejoin" error was happening before, now I think it gives only connection error
sage tangle
Excuse me. What? ๐ค
small kernel
Union Miner Cummunity reward screen "bronze tier achieved!" and "claim your rewards" strings are missing
did you mean talking about latejoin? @sage tangle
sage tangle
Yes

I mean, latejoin is working before (I think). but right now latejoin instead of gives connection error
but I don't know the latejoin in options menu
sage tangle
?
I asked about the string ingame, what happens if it gets longer. I just saw how our french guys did it and will compare it later this evening.
By the way guys (French), in the ESC Menu you have a long version with \r, and in the Optionsmenu you have a short version
The community terminal tiers are not missing. Screenshot incoming:

@dense mountain
I just saw that you're right. Breather is not translated in German (well it is, with 'Breather') so it IS up for discussion...
dense mountain
Thing is while โMundatmerโ is fitting and funny its usually used as insult so dunno if this is really acceptable
tender basin
Of course this is up to you guys, thatโs a general guideline that I follow
sage tangle
@dense mountain
While Mundatmer (Mouthbreather) can be an insult, (someone who's too stupid to breathe through the nose) it's also a normal word, especially for... Mouthbreathers at the dentist. It is a condition which brings increased dryness of the gums, plaque and stuff
dense mountain
Thing is the first thought I had on my very first encounter was it looks and even moves like a strange out of the world Mundatmer.
In addition some people who know the term regardless of insult or medical term would recognize it as such.
Atleast its more fitting than say Mundpilz (Mouthmushroom) or Hรถhlenatmer (Cavebreather).
And Atmer (Breather) feels just wrong in many aspects (because it feels lazy and can be a verb aswell).
dense mountain
Lets invent a fake latein name, mushroomus breathous kermitus
Kermitus would be funny too
sage tangle
While I agree, I also have mixed feelings of making jokes where there are none in the original.
Like beerscreen has a few puns and stuff, so doing fitting stuff in german is okay. Same for names of cosmetics...
'Feel of the game' and such.
God damn you, now I want to name it Kermitus
sage tangle
Enemy names have been bugging me for some time. When I started it was
Glyphid Kรคmpfer (Grunt) which is wrong. So I corrected it to
Glyphid-Kรคmpfer.
Still it felt odd for some reason, plus it reads harder / harder to spot.
Today I realised what's wrong. If you make a compound name like Glyphidkรคmpfer it has to be the other way round.
Kรคmpfer-Glyphid
Prรคtorianer-Glyphid. And so on.
So now rename all enemies. Again
The type of enemy in the same family has to be named first. Like ice bear, brown bear and so on.
Eisbรคr Braunbรคr Seebรคr
dense mountain
Grunt is a really hard word to translate, especially if its used for Bug like creatures

Soldat. Kรคmpfer

Yeah but grunt is way more elegant in that matter, it just roles

I still dislike some stuff. F.I. warden and guard atm have the same translation. Wรคchter. Not sure how to seperate them
Wache und Hรผter?
Exploder: Sprenger...
Spitball infectors are the same in german.
Opressors being Unterdrรผcker
Yes?
dense mountain
Warden could be also translated in Aufseher
Guard and Wache fits pretty well I think, also I like Unterdrรผcker it sounds strange first but it does fit the mood
Sprenger is fine too, spitball infectors hmm
sage tangle
Thinking about renaming sprenger to kamikaze or smth
dense mountain
It would be recognizable by many but its not really german, it would break your own continuity
Platzer ๐
Spitballer there was a term during the pest I read long ago it was quite fitting
Cant find it something like Speiber or reihern
sage tangle
Can you elaborate?
I just looked through and found a missing string @leaden sapphire mentioned earlier I missed out:
"https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407086800075489281/675023814253608971/unknown.png
This page has no strings to translate and it displays in english by default. I guess nothing will be done to fix it now, but just in case it ever happens, it would help to have a template to get it translated, I believe."
I'm adding it to the list.
There was someone including Mira talking about missing strings like 'Health full' which are the wrong way round?
Quote below:
"And this one could be the composed string (although it says "resupply", but in any case it might have a form like this):
https://crowdin.com/translate/deep-rock-galactic/77/en-es#134913
Agree. Would make sense. Hungarian translation has had issues earlier with mission names so I suspect a string like this will be hell to them as well
I have checked hidden ones and none seems related to resources
but a few {value} {unit} are available
The ones I can see are {distance} {unit}, {depth} {unit} and {value} {unit}"
dense mountain
All your translations are true to the english version like sprenger, kรคmpfer or unterdrรผcker, if you use Kamikaze it wouldnt fit with anything like it. Either you use more synonyms like spitballer is vomitus or you should keep the pure german terms
short abyss
@sage tangle when do you use informal/formal
sage tangle
I only use informal.
Why do you ask?
@dense mountain Yes most of the enemy translations were before my time, the ones I added I just did in the same 'style' so they have a translation at all (Unterdrรผcker) but I'm not happy with it
It feels... wie auf stelzen. 'Sprenger' 'Unterdrรผcker' klingt so meh
short abyss
i use formal for things like menus and whatnot
or mission control
but informal for CCs between dwarves
sage tangle
Which lang?
When I first joined half was informal, half was formal. It felt COMPLETELY off. Asked my german mates, they felt the same (I have to ask someone for their opinion after all :D)
And someone as bitching as Mission Control we felt would not be informal to the miners
just didn't fit the atmosphere
Why do you ask @short abyss ? Which language?
Anyone else just noticed half of the community terminal has missing strings? Half of it is in english for me
shell vine
Which terminal would that be ?
shell vine
I believe Vasquez said something about that earlier...
I really didn't follow the channel closely as of late, since I dedicate most of my translation time to the wiki creation
sage tangle
Yes the string he mentioned is not missing, I showed him where it was.
(it was untranslated)
shell vine
Ah ok, didn't get that
sage tangle
Okay just checking it, same for french
dense mountain
@sage tangle didnt know that
short abyss
Slovenian
sage tangle
was genau?
short abyss
since i have formal and informal
sage tangle
Yeh we (did) too
until I purged it
Just felt so off, asked my mates about it, they felt the same.
small kernel
@shell vine do you talking about "bronze tier achieved" string?
sage tangle
Is it okay to add to the missing strings
Communityterminal
- (half of) everything
Or do I really need to list it all?
small kernel
there is a screenshot above, you need a search just "tier achieved" on crowdin site. Not just search "bronze"
and there is a one thing
If you haven't interact with jukebox yet, it just shows "Play", after you interact with, it starts to use translated lines of "play" "stop". @sage tangle
sage tangle
Can somebody explain how this works? Turkish has both 'play' strings translated (Oynat) - a year ago
German has both translated and they show correct ingame, 5 / 10 months ago.
How come turkish translation is older but not ingame?
Just checked yours vasquez.
shell vine
Are we sure Turkish has been added at the last update? If there was no changes to the crowdin, the devs might have skipped it?
sage tangle
Okay I can confirm your problem Vasquez. Adding it.
small kernel
I think this string not translated and I translated a day ago
this string about jukebox

okay thanks for this ๐
sage tangle
Can a Mod please pin this second post with PLACEHOLDER above? My first one is full / Characterlimit is 2.000 ๐ฎ
Also jacob, can you or somebody tell us if the format is okay, or do you need more / other details not included? Like: String missing completely, string is there but not getting applied (like that play issue on jukebox above, or which language is affected? Are there issues which affect all languages like this?)
shell vine
You should probably ping Jacob for that, so he knows this second post exists...
sage tangle
yes but it's after work hours
shell vine
Do it tomorrow then
sage tangle
yes
small kernel
@sage tangle do you now on minigun weapon "ammo count" string? I can't find this
sage tangle
Oh yes! Forgot that one! Thanks, adding it now
small kernel
you're welcome
sage tangle
Added
small kernel
and at the abyss bar screen "no refund! no refills! no regrets!" word is not transtaed in game still same in english
sage tangle
that's on the initial pinned message already ๐
shell vine
The missing strings pinned messages are too long, we need a pinned message with a summary of them !
sage tangle
๐
shell vine
And when that one will be too long as well, a summary of the summary will be in order !
small kernel
that's on the initial pinned message already ๐
@sage tangle oh yeah I forgot this
sage tangle
Yeh they quite added up didnt they?
shell vine
Jacob : faster than the ping with the pin !
small kernel
Deep rock developers is awesome the best game developers
sage tangle
Good morning @solid bough
Thank you for the pin yesterday :)
Regarding the summary of strings,
Can you or somebody tell us if the format is okay, or do you need more / other details not included?
Like: String missing completely, string is there but not getting applied (like that play issue on jukebox above, or which language is affected? Are there issues which affect all languages like this?)
Ie what infos do you need?
signal prism
How often do they update localizations?
solid bough
@sage tangle I'll look into it after lunch. We basically need to identify where the string happens, so getting a screenshot with it marked is the best, since I have to pass it on to someone who can fix it.
@signal prism It's a manual process that we need to activate.
so when we remember to do it ๐
sage tangle
So wait are screenshots better than the list?
signal prism
just like bismor voicelines :b
sage tangle
Jacob wanted to say, the next experimental and every other hotfix
I hope it's okay that I keep reminding you for us all.
Thanks, now I'm hungry
sage tangle
Just talked to mist and pounce, we're a bit unsure..
Basically Jacob, is the list we provided useful for you / GSG or should it look different?
We want to make your work as easy as possible, so you can make ours as easy as possible 
I want to maintain the list in a way you just need to print it and pin it to someones screen
solid bough
list is good too when it's just non-translated strings. Issues with fonts or non-fitting text boxes require screenshots
