Translation - who wants to get involved?

[Teesee]

Hey there ranchers,

I know the devs haven't started any translation work yet, but they may need us in the future when translations are on their schedule. To help them, I want anyone who's interested in helping for translation to make a post right here, saying for which language. I'll add the name to the list later on.

This way, they'll know who they can contact should the need arise.

Just to make it clear :

• I am not a dev
• I am not coordinating anything, I just want to help the devs by making this list
• There is NO official translation work started by the devs YET. You can nevertheless find the texts and start translating them on your own or with you fellow volunteers.
• DO NOT send me PM regarding "how is translation going" or "how do I translate". Once again, I am not a dev and there are no official translation work started at the moment. Do as you wish. I WILL NOT ANSWER PM REGARDING THESE TOPICS, unless it's asking for help with the French translation.

Thanks and good luck ;)

Thoughts on this subject from one of the game Devs:

Hi everyone. We really appreciate your enthusiasm in wanting to help translate Slime Rancher. Currently our plans for doing so are as follows:

At some point in the future, most likely following the release of v0.3.0, we're going to work with a translation company to do a first pass on the translations for SR. Following this first pass, we would recruit community volunteers to work on the ongoing process of translating future content.

So please sit tight as we work this out, but feel free to post if you're interested and what you can offer. Though I'll add that just doing so won't guarantee involvement. We have a lot of experience with this sort of thing and having too many people involved can lead to problems.

Thanks!

You definitely did not see that typo, right?!

Is this a real application or a joke? ^^

[SatyPardus]

I want to do German, when they need people^^

[Teesee]

Added !

[pixeledbrain]

I can do spanish :D

[DarkSlimeLord]

I could translate it to Dutch :D

[ThunderTheBright]

I think it will take a few people to translate to each language. there's way too many puns for one person to handle.
I can do italian btw.

[SpiralRancher]

I can opt for French, despite Teesee already filling that post.

[Teesee]

Added the new names!

SpiralRancher, several people can express their interest - I never said there should be only one person involved.

[Hypsellis]

I can help for the french translation. ^^

[Gaster]

I could also help with the german one, the more people the better :D

[MadAlcapa]

Hey, I've already been part of the french translation team for Indie Game : The Movie, and it'd be great to translate this cutie slime game :3

[TobeContinued]

I can help for french translation.

[pixeledbrain]

Wow so much french people, :D

[Wholan]

I am Italian, I could help

[spikyknight]

I'd like to volunteer to help with the russian translation if it's needed.

[AntsRCool]

I would like to translate it into Danish

[SpiralRancher]

Wow so much french people, :D

Not all of them are France french, though. Those with the western accent are good too.

[Teesee]

We may have to split into France, Québec, Belgium... Translations if people feel like we should do this.

Then there should also be spanish from Spain and south american spanish, and maybe even divided within south american spanish, im not from there so i dont know how different they are from each other

[Wholan]

Yeah why not use Milan's language and Napoli's lol

[SpiralRancher]

Or at least work together to blend the accents. Besides, the NPC ranchers from the Ranch Exchange system could benefit from that.

I could translate to Dutch aswell as DarkSlimeLord, if that's still needed.

[Teesee]

Well if there had to be only one, it would have to be French from France. Everyone would understand it. Belgium vs France isn't that different, but Québec uses many words taken from English and may need a few adjustments after the France French translation is done. But that's wayyyyy beyond schedule for now xD
