After having a successful time using google docs for localisation of osu!stream, I have decided to push osu! over there. pTransl was a great system, but I don't actually have the time to maintain one more system, and therefore this is the best way forward in my eyes.

The document is publicly editable. Feel free to make any changes you see fit for languages you are proficient at.

peppy, you realize that making this available for everyone to translate is crazy, right?
I can already see someone screwing up a lot of italian translations and i'm sure that if someone fixes them some other undoubtly-smart guy will come and screw them up again.

I hardly see the benefit of this whole thing.

Contributed :) I tried to make sentences as natural as possible, avoiding word for word translations.

I also made sure to shorten some sentences, since they could be cut by a possible lack of space ("Online Ranking" in song selection -> "Class. en ligne" instead of "Classement en ligne").

edit: I couldn't find entries for:
  1. "Always show key overlay" (Options/Input)
  2. "Enable joystick " (Options/Input)
  3. "osu!mania layout" (Options/Input)
  4. "Symmetrical" and "Left to right" (Options/Input)
  5. "Automatically log private messages" (Options/Online)
  6. All entries in drop down lists and tabs in the song selection list (top of the screen), except for SongSelection_All
Is that normal?

The wiki is also publicly editable. There's this nice thing called being able to roll-back changes which ensures this won't be a huge issue. The benefit is that anyone can collaborate.

I know that.
What i wonder is how you're going to know which is the correct change to roll-back to (if there's the need to), because i don't think you know all the languages the document is being translated into.

Which is bad because translations need consistency to be good.

We can deal with such issues when they arise. First of all we need a base set of translations so they can be loaded into osu!, then we can work forward from there.

If this is not going to be moderated... I don't see it working properly... see what happened with plTrans :S

Maybe we could have s for each language who can prove any degree of proficiency in English. (university studies, certificates, I don't know...)

Once I do the initial import, changes can be checked before they are committed to the game (when I import updates to osu!). For large-scale changes, I will make sure someone checks them before they go live.

Worst case scenario, I will limit access to the document.

As I said, let's deal with that if/when we need to.

If I recall correctly, plTrans had some sort of comment system in which translations could be explained. I find this absolutely necessary for this kind of work.
Can this be done with google docs? Or do we have to use the forums?

You can add tooltips/comments to individual cells by right-clicking on them and choosing "Insert comment".

Like peppy said. See for example the little triangles in some of the cells of the French translation.


Edit to avoid a double post:
One of the sentences bugs me a bit:

Enabled for the Wii Taiko drum controller and wiimote (not yet).
Make sure you have paired your Wiimote via bluetooth before enabling.
If Wiimote has not yet been implemented, why is there a Bluetooth recommandation? It makes no sense.

This approach is actually better I think. osu! localization v1 caused lots of inconsistency between different translations of the same language (eg. "Add to Favourites A" and "Add to Favourites B" translated differently)

Cool idea but also tricky.
On pTrans, people could vote for correct translations. Means the crowd decides which one is correct. Here you can simply override them.
How can you determine which translation is actually correct / better than other ones?

Anyway, translating / correcting a bit of german. :)

Just a reminder that line breaks are done in Google Docs by pressing Alt+Enter (also valid for Microsoft Excel).

Many translations do not have line breaks at all: Turkish, Hungarian, Mongolian, Czech, Slovak, Filipino, Polish, Korean, Dutch...

I have added in the latest test build for this. The translations are still not on par with what we had before. This means there is room for improvement just by copying and pasting existing ones. Anyone with the time, please help out by filling in missing sections/langauges from the old resource files available here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/16332218/translations.zip. Without this being compelted, we can't move forwards.

And please do note what XPJ38 said about line breaks. You will need to use alt-enter or ctrl-enter depending on your browser/OS to create a new line.

Update:

Languages not yet complete (using v1 translations still, see resource files):
Korean
Japanese
Dutch

Languages not yet added to v2 spreadsheet yet:

Chinese translations has been corrected.

Fixed several gramma mistakes
Add translations to "Language" & "Select Language:" as "语言" & “选择语言” based on other language's translation-styles.
Replace several express to a more suitable way.

Finished the Norwegian translation(and added a small number of fixes to the Swedish one).
Feel free to go through and fix whatever I did wrong, such as bad flow or inconsistencies. It was all done in one sitting, though, so there shouldn't be as many of the latter, but you never know.

Copy-pasting from other thread...

I did some changes to the Indonesian translation.

Notably...
Original: "Show notification popups instantly during gameplay"
Wrong: "Peringatan akan ditampilkan jika teman online/offline" (literally: "Notification will be shown when friend is online/offline")
Correct: "Peringatan akan ditampilkan langsung dalam permainan"

----------

Original: "300g:{1} 300:{2} 200:{3} Bad:{4}"
Wrong: "300g:{1} 100:{2} 50:{3} Luput:{4}" (literally: "300g:{1} 100:{2} 50:{3} Miss:{4}")
Correct: "300g:{1} 300:{2} 200:{3} Jelek:{4}"

----------

Original: "All maps have been marked as 'Played'."
Wrong: "Tandai semua map sebagai 'Telah dimainkan'" (literally: "Mark all maps as 'Played'")
Correct: "Semua map telah ditandai sebagai 'Telah dimainkan'."

----------

Some fixes: "Tampilkan daftar orang yang menonton selama permainan." changed into "Tampilkan daftar penonton selama permainan." to prevent overlap. (It's better to say "spectators list" than "list of players who spectate", right? :P)

----------

And basically some minor typo and capitalizations.

I added some notes for Indonesian language as well, as it seems to be causing issues like overlapping issues and such. I need Indonesian players' suggestion about this. :?
