Create Localization GitHub Fork - defterai/StarCitizenModding GitHub Wiki

Fork is needed to be able use our infrastructure and software for install and update localization for end users. After fork repository your automatically receive own last modding environment which can be extended in any way

Steps to fork localization repository

1. Fork this repository master branch by press Fork button in top right page corner
2. Rename forked repository by go to Settings -> Options (Repository name) and type your own repository name
   IMPORTANT: do not change it after release to users
3. Change README.md and About information on GitHub
4. Delete some not needed branches (just leave one master branch) and all release

After those steps you'll receive empty modding environment which should be copied to game folder and then can be enabled or disabled by python scripts. All changes to the game should be applied to data folder which now (after enable modding environment) override files inside Data.p4k/data folder. So any game file from data folder inside Data.p4k can be extracted, modified and put in data folder with the same path and name, so game would use external version.

To reduce amount of work for localization teams we provide Base Localization Package which contains already extracted original games files so you can just download them, modify and copy to your modding environment.
