Title: About pak choosing interface and settings translation.
Post by: Aureus on February 24, 2026, 06:04:22 AM
Hello, I want to make a full translation of SimuTrans into chinese. But I found no text for pak choosing interface or Settings (most of the detail settings, not titles). I just want to know, how to translate those texts into our targeted language?

There is a website, Simutranslator https://translator.simutrans.com/

Even without a login, one can submit suggestions there. But check your PM; I have added an account for you,

It is not possible to show translated texts in the "pak choosing interface"because it is no language selected at this state of the program.

Thanks for the explanation. I have another question, how to upload finished localization files? In my case, they are in chinese. The base text of SimuTrans along with help files were not translated, so I simply translated all 68 help files and 1 .tab file into chinese. But here is the question, I use the account that prissi created for me log in simutranslator site, but I can't find a place to upload what I translated. So could you tell me where to submit them, or could I just send them to you or prissi? ;D  ;D

You search for the files you modified in https://makie.de/translator/script/directions.php and update its translation.

For help files select first "Base texts", then "help_file" and your language.
