RE: Change languge on skin
Hello everybody!

Let me get straight in to the subject.

I'm new to xuitool, so I am just in the phase of learning. So I started by trying to make a translation for my language (greek).

My problem is that while some parts are translated, others ( such as eg. "Launch Game" and others) are not. Is there something I am missing?

Sorry if this is a very noobish question but I would appreciate some help.Icon_smile

RE: Change languge on skin
chee5y, thanks for the reply, but I have already checked this thread. It covers only the basics and has been very helpful for me in the beginning.

My specific problem is not mentioned however.
For example, even though I put the translated text in the text field, it won't show the translated text when i reload the skin with the updated xui/xur. It will show the original english.

If you want me to be more specific in where exactly i face these issues, I can be. Just tell me.Icon_wink

RE: Change languge on skin
My guess is probably that the elements like Lauch game and such are set in the skin.xur file so you have to go in there and edit the language in there for all your visual buttons..

Sorry I can't explain it more..let me know if you need further explanation.

RE: Change languge on skin
NewYears1978, thanks for your help. However , I've searched through skin.xur and i either found nothing relevant or i don't know what exactly to search about. All i see are elements of buttons, backgrounds etc. but text in text fields that i can translate is nowhere to be found.

If you could explain further, I would be grateful. Icon_smile

modmate, after talking with NewYears1978, we "discovered" that the text inside the tab does not change in the xui's. Instead, you change it by modifying the MenuSettings.xml in the Settings folder of the skin.

But that only applies to english characters. When using characters that are not in the english vocabulary, they show as squares or other strange symbols. Although i've tried various fonts that are supposed to work, i haven't found a solution on this yet.

I couldn't figure it out either...I tried to ask Wondro (FSD team) but the guy doesn't seem to answer me lately (probably hasn't been around when I was)
