english patch files #10

Open ricochhet opened 2 years ago

ricochhet commented 2 years ago

If anyone still has the english patch files, if you could provide them, I would appreciate it. You could either create a new pull request with the files under the archive folder, or just send them via any other service, and i'll add them to the repo.

Grabbing the files would be no problem really, but there still is another problem. You need permission from the people who made the translation in order to publish it on github or somewhere else really.

Also just having the translations in binary files is not really that useful. It would be better to have the strings of the translation in their own repo or something so it could be worked on by more people really.

Getting the people working on the translation in such a direction would be best imho. Then you could just link to their repo for the translation files

I doubt the translation people would be willing to move into a direction like that, but never say never I guess. The translation files could be converted to human readable files and back again fairly easy though, there's tools for that.

Ideally if we could figure out some method to share these files for people, without it being unethical would be nice, I just don't know if such method exists, other than getting the peoples permission to begin with, which I would be doubtful for that to occur.

depending on the licensing of such a patch distributing it would be no problem. As far as I know there is work going in some discord. From what I heard the team working on the patch is testing it right now and looking for typos and such. I guess they will publish themselves sometimes later anyway, when they feel its polished enough and stuff
