Translation service

[cail]

In English:
Hi All!

I've settled up a translation service for the hobdrive app:

http://translate.hobdrive.com/projects/hobdrive/

Anybody can use it to improve and extend translation of hobdrive to other languages.


Starting with beta version 1.1.51 you can download your language package from "Project hobdrive" -> "review" -> "zip file" and just replace existing files in "lang" subfolder.

For android version, you can replace same files on /sdcard/hobd/lang (or hobdrive/lang),
the screens will receive new translations, but the translation of settings dialogs will be missing until new version update.


Notice, that we give a good discount to active translators. You may also contact us to receive a license at no cost in exchange for a full translation to some (your) language.

По Русски:
Заработал сервис локализации программы:

http://translate.hobdrive.com/projects/hobdrive/

Вы можете зарегистрироваться там и принять участие в локализации, улучшении и расширении перевода программы на разные языки.

Мы обычно даем хорошую скидку людям активно принимающим участие в локализации.
Если у вас есть возможность целиком перевести программу на ваш язык (и она еще не была переведена на него) - выпишем лицензию бесплатно.

Hi,

can you check speed of loading webpage and subpages: translate.hobdrive.com ?

Loading time is too long: 50-80s

[cail]

Just improved this, now should be fine.
Please notice you have to translate "hobDrive" project.
"Terminology" is a sample word reference project, it is useful, but not required for translations.

PS. Later I'll give instructions how to download translation pack and install it into hobdrive for validation/usage.

German translation is done

[cail]

wow thanks! PMed you

[maxman]

You have som serious errors in translation functions:

For example:
sdesc.FuelEconomy_instant is in english: Short term fuel economy
It should be: INSTANT not short

Such errors I have seen several.
It would be a good idea to check the source, which then are based on translations to other languages, that are not translated wrong texts.

[cail]

maxman, thanks alot, these think just a typo in source english translation.
If you'll notice any other, let me know and I'll update original english source.

[cail]

I've fixed these typos (and some others), now all should be consistent (I hope).

Starting with beta version 1.1.51 you can download your language package from "Project hobdrive" -> "review" -> "zip file", f.e.
http://translate.hobdrive.com/pootle/ru ... export/zip

and just replace existing files in "lang" subfolder.

For android version, you can replace same files on /sdcard/hobd/lang (or hobdrive/lang),
the screens will receive new translations, but the translation of settings dialogs will be missing until new version update.

Hello Cail

Im doing the portuguese brazil translation and I have a question: the term "fuel economy sensors" is the same as (or something like) "fuel consumption sensor"?

thanks!

[maxman]

Hi Cail,

seconds - no text in english
sdesc.OBDSupport - no text in english
sdesc.FuelLevel - no text in english
sdesc.AbsoluteLoadValue - no text in english
sdesc.Lambda - no text in english
sdesc.EngineOilTemp - no text in english
sdesc.FuelInjectionTiming - no text in english

[cail]

maxman, thanks, will fix that.

wagnerw,
fuel consumption and economy are similar, but "fuel economy" is normally a normalized value ( l / 100km, or miles per gallon), "fuel consumption" is more general - it could be f.e. "fuel consumption in liters per trip, or per day".

[maxman]

Slovak translation is complete.
They may be some errors, but fix it after some tests.

[cail]

maxman, I've seen the progress - it was quite fast, thanks alot! I'll integrate this into next update for sure!

[wagnerw]

Cail, i´m trying to finish the Brazilian portuguese translation but all the "core.properties" section changed to russian. Do you know what happened?

wagner.

[cail]

Hi, yes, that was a glitch in a system.

I'll fix it soon and rollback to the latest valid translation.

Sorry for this and please suspend all translations until then (or they will be lost).

[cail]

It should be fine now, please checkout.

Hello cail, I'd love to help translate to Arabic but you didn't add it to that page.

[cail]
