#translation mod

Soy hablante nativo del español y creo sería genial si se pudiera traducir!!

Of course I don’t know too much about the process of creating video games so if it’s very complicated, I would understand

Hola!!

We would of course love for Delectatio Morosa to be available in multiple languages, but it would be an involved process that would happen after release.

We would be more than happy to provide the files to add a translation, which our game engine is definitely capable of doing. The translation file is just a txt with the original script lines above and the an empty line below for a translator to write the equivalent statements in their language.

Example (blue is original script, red is the translator's script):

more about this here.

But we want to be clear about the extent of work that would need to be done to keep the game functional.

There are 2 levels of translation:

Coding + Translating: someone with coding knowledge may be able to translate, then re-add the styling tags applied to the script for special effects (shaking, colors, sizes, fonts, etc.) that were originally applied. They would also have to look back to the game to fix text overflow and sentence splitting more appropriate to the translated language.

Pure Translation: someone without coding knowledge may translate the text as is, with the styling tags omitted. this means no more styling or special effects, and a possibility of text overflow making it difficult to read.

In both cases, we would generate a translation file. But in case 1, the file would retain the styling tags for a coder's reference, while in case 2, we would remove all styling tags and the text will essentially be "plain" (losing out on all the styling features).

Feel free to reach out to us if you would like to create a translation in your language, and we can provide the file for those interested in translating after release.

The Sims 4 Filipino Translation Mod (early concept beta)

I know, this isn't a Sims 2 content, but for the past year or so, I've been more of a Sims 4 player and as of lately, I am curious if I can translate the game because i have barely managed to do it on The Sims 2 (but for the complication of that mod itself; like shredding character files; i decide not to share that one.) So now, here we are in The Sims 4, my attempt on translating the game is on my side because there's an external program for translating the string text in the game, which is The Sims 4 Translator on GitHub!

This is the first and early release for the mod and I would be glad if anyone would be interested on helping me to this. I have barely touched the basic stuff there like dialogue and so on; I only worked on some of the UI elements currently. SOME.

And for the people who are asking; specially probably the Filipino simmers out there: WHAT IS THIS?! WHAT'S the POINT?! WE CAN PLAY THE GAME IN ENGLISH!!

okay, sure i get it. but to answer your question: I don't know either! I just feel like doing this! SCREENSHOTS AND DOWNLOAD LINK BELOW!

This mod replaces the NPC and quest dialogue for a more faithful translation, it is the same English translation used in SEA and EU with a few tweaks to make it closer to the Korean version.

It was originally intended to be used in the NA server, as Nexon changed the story to their liking, but SEA and EU can benefit from it because it fixes typos, coding issues, leftover text and many more issues (see changelog).

I threw in a V2 of this mod which only contains the quest dialogue. This is because dialogue in the game is split in “NPC talk” and “quest talk”. NPC talk is the dialogue a NPC shows when they greet you, and contains the shop and quest menu, which can differ a lot depending on what version of the game are you playing (like Russia that it’s still stuck in 80 cap). So if for whatever reason you are playing in a server without English language but what to enjoy the story, download V2 so you don’t lock yourself out of certain quests and shops.

If you play in NA, SEA or EU ideally you should download V1 as they are in they have more or less the same content and events, but use at your own risk. Use V2 if you don’t wanna risk anything.

NOTE: This mod will be updated every month (if there’s a script change). Like usual I will post a notice in the blog. I advice you to keep it up to date with the mod if you don’t want the risk of locking yourself out of content or seeing just a bunch of squares.

Changelog:

Some NPCs and locations have been renamed (see this pasta).

Academic’s quest [I Just Met With Karakule] have been corrected. It had NA dialogue as placeholder during the quest formatting update that SEA never removed.

Various typos and formatting errors.

Equalized terminology accross all dialogue, that means you won’t see different names used to refer to the people who perform the same job or options that contain the same menus like the Trading House NPCs that had like four different ways to refer to them.

Removed “Item Repair” from the Blackmisth Shop menu, as you can’t even repair items there and it’s confusing.

Old quests now state the correct dungeon you should complete (there are some pending).

There were a lot of ridiculous oversights like Foothills of Black Mountain being called “Hair” or Berlin being addressed as “Berlinin” in certain quests. I have taken care of most of those.
