Translating Introduction

Not everyone reads just English and its known in the development of my mods, which is why they offer translations of text in other languages. These translations are made by community members who are on my Discord Server who are fluent in another language and willing to contribute.

The way translations work is via a language text file named after the language and location (Example, the one for English United States is "en_us.json"). This file contains a bunch of text strings from one of my mods which can be translated into different languages. Depending on the client's selected language, the mods text will then be translated into all of the text in the lang text file.

The Steps

1. Join my Discord Server as there you'll find the language files for my projects. You'll also be able to receive help from LimeSplatus (me) if you need it. Click here to join.
2. Create a text document in any text editing software
3. Into this text document, copy and paste in the language file for one of my mods. You can find these in the pinned messages of the #translators channel on my Discord.
4. Original text is on the left of each line, the translated version of that text that you are writing is on the right of each line ( "original text": "translated text)
5. Once you have finished translating each line, send your language file in the #translators channel

Important: Make sure your translations do not remove or replace any \n's or spaces! It's important these two things are kept in the translation as they space out text and create line breaks in text that appears in chat.
