I just uploaded a first BETA of the translation community page: http://www.open-translation.org
This page gives you the chance to translate texts into languages you are able to speak while getting your texts translated into languages you don’t know. It’s a free service i made to make it possible to get our games in as many languages as possible without using Google Translator or expensive translation agencies.
Here is a screenshot of the submission process:
The basic idea is, that you spend credits for translating your text into one other language.
You earn credits by successfully translating a text of another person. Successfully means, the other person accepts the translation.
You could also decline it, if you are somehow unhappy with it. In that case it would return to the list of open translations.
The open translations (you access them via the button “Translate” see screenshot) are sorted after the creators “score”.
The higher your score, the faster your stuff gets translated since it’s on top of the “Translate” list.
The score is simply a percentage of successful translations of all translations you’ve made.
Before you translate another text you reserve it for 12 hours with a simple buttonclick. The translation will then get invisible for others in that timeframe to avoid 2 people translating the same text.
Please give it a try and send me all the feedback here or per PM or email.
Also feel free to share the link so we can reach more languages and users!
Thanks, Cheers Merry Christmas
