Since I am working on a project with help from other memebers of the AGS community, I would like to trnalate my game to show them the status of the project. Therefore I have to translate the game every once and a while. Do you have suggestions for an easy to use translation-process?

After updating my game I have to update the translations.
This is a terrible job. I tried to merge files and came up with a result, but now at many places in the game the translation is not actuated.
This is because of errors in the translation-source file, but how to find these ????
Icannot find a logic that helps me locate the errors after looking for about an hour.

Am I doing something stupid?

Kind regards,

Martijn

Keep a copy of the original translation source file you create for the first version.

Then later, when you generate the new one, compare the two. That way you can find out which lines are new and changed, and copy & paste them into the translated file.

This is actually a good point about translations, it is difficult to update them - currently the best way is just to wait until the game is finished, and then translate it.
