Hey,

I needed a small advice... since my server mode is "DayZ" and most of dayz players are russians and br's, i thought how about translate the gm to those languages aswell & ask them on register about language.

So the question is, is it a good idea translating?
How does translations work? i mean.. i never translated

IMO you'll make it more difficult for yourself to effectively manage your server. Especially if you yourself don't master the language you're translating to. Brazilians and Russians, to name a few, play on servers that are in their language precisely because they don't master English. If you translate your server to one of those languages you'll attract more of those people. Clear communication will be an absolute bitch.

After a long time, I have decided to translate it into Brazilian, any ideas how to start?

You Have to put a dialog Onplayerconnect So example

Код:

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
      ShowPlayerDialog(playerid, 814, DIALOG_STYLE_LIST,"Select a Language", "English\nBrazillian", "Choose", "");

}

ondialogresponse (u can make a variable)

Код:

case Brazillian:
{
      BrazilianMode[playerid] = 1;
}

And in each CMD example:

Код:

CMD:cmds(playerid,params[])
{
      if(BrazilianMode[playerid] == 1)
      {
      //other code
      }     
      else if(EnglishMode[playerid] == 1)
      {
      //other code
      }
      return 1;
}

and for textdraws You can set strings for each one OnPlayerUpdate if variable Brazillian Mode = 1
So Set String To That one of braziliian

I suggest you to put messages on defines(same as me)so,your players can contribute to it.

A lot of extra work there for few languages.

Sounds like this will make the server difficult to moderate, and that the playerbase will be fractured.

There was an include a while back for this very task... No idea where it is or what it's named.

Correlli's seems best so far, yet not good enough for complex gamemodes.
